I think for a wood stove there’s a certain point where there could be too much added thermal mass (guessing over 2000 lbs) to be effective. At...
Happy heat wave! 24 this morning, back to a full load 12 hour burn schedule!
-28/70 forecast temp was off by 20 degrees! I hope this is is for awhile and I can back to 12 hour burn schedules.
-19/71 Another cold one tonight! Just loaded up the evening load of Oak.
Actually thermal mass does work to a certain extent, what that is I don’t know but at a certain point you’re just heating the blocks and not the room.
-3/68 just passed the 1.5 cord mark for the season. Have another 1.5 to go. Been burning through the Oak pretty good lately. Looking forward to a...

Totally taken apart now. I dropped the flue collar assembly and broke it so there’s another cost. Gonna start working on the iron while I wait for...
Had to lay her on her down to get access to those tie rods so I went ahead and wire wheeled and painted the bottom.
Ha yeah I forgot about that.
Well I got two of those threaded rods loose and snapped the other two off. May as well replace all four. woodstock is getting my order together....
It’s a threaded rod with nut on the bottom of the stove on all four corners. When I put a wrench on them I can turn them about a quarter turn and...
