    Thanks! The temps to work are perfect!

    Thanks! That rack of kindlin will get us through 1/2 of the season give or take. We will finish another rack some other day. That 4'x4'x18" rack took about an hour. We normally use twine and bundle it, but we decided that was an unnecessary step. We use the most kindlin during SS.

    Absolutely super cedars can do the trick! But kindlin is freeeee! And even though the oak is seasoned 2.5 yrs, it can still be a pain to light up quickly.

    Its nice to have on hand. Mainly SS stuff when there are many cold starts.
