Good job and creative to boot!
I hear you brother. I recall during the winter of '72 I was working as a Forester for a hardwood sawmill outfit in Port Loring and headed out at...
I like your approach. Overkill in situations involving wood burning is the only way to go. I am an old Napoleon lover and have been to both their...
Really nice job. Looks awesome.
Did you consider or look into engineered I beams or engineered trusses?
Now that's sounds more like winter. Was minus 30 C last night at midnight and I think that's minus 20 something in F degrees. I went ice fishing...
Great to have you aboard. Look forward to your insights. Tell us about Dave Pomeroy. Any words of wisdom to pass along?

COLD? My goodness it sure was COLD! Why I saw 2 lawyers walking down the street and they had their hands in their own pockets!
Life ain't always easy - had to use one of those things when our goat "Billy" left home for greener pastures.
Thought that stove looked familiar. First I thought "what did he do? Take the pedestal off it?" Then I realized it was an insert. Then saw the...
That's neat! I'll bet you are right. Sometimes we have a lot of one type and then never see them again. About 20 years ago we used to get cedar...
Totally agree Dave. For an average house the effort can reduce heating/cooling requirements by a whole lot. Doors, windows, insulation are...
It sounds like a subjective term to throw out when nothing more specific can be offered. A lot of us, myself included, have tried to heat a home...
