Just wanted to introduce myself. I have been burning for the last 10 years, typically 5-6 cord a year. Recent job change and move are killing the burning this winter and the snow here isn't help. Around 100" this winter. Only a coue weeks af decent wood left, mostly from the dead trees on my 19 acre property. I currently burn in a late 1800's(or so I was told) railway station stove. Here is a pic of my splitter, it's that hump in the snow!
Welcome to the Hoarders club Cro. We're glad you found us. Love the splitter pic. You should fit in just fine here.
Hi, welcome. We left several years worth of seasoned wood at my previous home we sold early 2014, I empathize!
Welcome to FHC Crodog . It looks like your gonna fit right in. The stove your using seems kind of interesting, from a railroad station. Very cool
Welcome Crodog!! And I am whining about the snow here, but my splitter doesn't need a snorkel....yet.
My dogs need snorkels! Here is a pic of the stove. It was included when we bought our house. It cranks out heat but it's a pig on wood usage. I can get about 4-5 hours off a full load. I've been adding some coal to help extend the burn time. My daughter is 53" tall. I have no heat in the second floor of my house and that stove has kept us plenty warm.
Welcome! Sounds like a great place you have there. Very nice stove. Too bad those cool looking old stoves aren't more efficient huh? I've got a really neat old porcelain cabinet style wood/coal stove on a pallet out in the barn that I'd like to resurrect some day but I can't justify it because I know it would eat wood like nothing.
