    Never heard of that expression either, but I know all about the beastie boys brass monkey.

    I had a little different mix in the quadrafire last night. Ash, paper birch, Cherry, honey locust and box elder. It did well. 71° in the house this am when I reloaded at 6 am.

    I put in ash and Norway maple this am

    39 but windy, 34 for a low tonight. We'll see if I can resist the urge to have a fire. The utility company might finally get a win tonight

    Sure was nice today. Temps in the low 40’s. Picked up some hay for the rabbits and worked on the mezzanine. We got the posts in and pinned to the floor and the beams bolted in place. I am still working on nailing the joist hangers…. Not my favorite part.

    Still a ways to go, but it’s starting to take shape.

    39 and windy/ hot inside

    Ash and possibly maple in the absolute steel high style. At a friend's house. This stove is a beast, it comes up to my chest. Woodstock makes some fine wood stoves.
