    In the late 70's I work at a factory here that all we did was make Woodland wood burning stoves. They were a really good stove back in the day. I came across this Craigs list add this morning.

    That's almost double what they sold for new as I recall. The real kicker is that I have the next smaller sized stove sittin out back on the scrap pile that needs nothing more than a blasting and paint and maybe new door gaskets. I was going to give it to a buddy to use in his shop last year but now I think I might have to drag it in and pretty it up.:eek:

    Nothing a little TLC can't handle. It has sentimental value to you as well.

    Obviosly a pre-EPA stove. $600 is a bunch of money for something that old. You can get something newer post EPA for that kind of money. Not even sure what it's worth as scrap metal. I'd say $150 would be a decent price for like a shop or outbuilding heater.
