As always, good suggestions guys! Regarding needing a 12 hour burn - yeah, unfortunately I do need it at least 5 days a week. I work 10 hour...
Unlike some of you lucky guys, scrounging hardwood for free is pretty much unheard of where I live. However, I've been able to take full...
It's going down to 6 here tonight. Still rockin' the pine, spruce, fir, poplar mix in the boiler and getting 12 hour burns. Gonna see if I can...
Good LORD! Really? I've paid more than that for logs!!!
If you're really concerned about the gray wood being wet - take a look at your favorite weather website & pay close attention to the 10 day...
Nope, in fact I've been using softwood off my uncovered stacks since the end of September. They're right around the 14-18% mark. I usually wait a...
I view my wood drying and storage as two distinct phases. During the drying phase, I stack my wood in a field in north/south rows to take...
Still rockin' my shoulder wood too and getting 12 hours! Tonight'll be a test though. Supposed to get down to 7* so we'll see what happens. Just...
18* when I went to bed last night @ 10:30 or so, 13* when I woke up this a.m. Still rockin' spruce, pine & poplar for 12 hour burns! At this rate...

I love these types of posts! Really shows perspective in other parts of the country! Here? At 65 during the day and mid 40's at night - we'd still...
Started September 26. Our *line* is when it's no longer warm enough in the day time to benefit from solar gain to get the house up to about 68 or...
I'd add a third to your list - those that burn wood to keep money local. As in not sending it to "big oil" and thus not sending it to those who...
Put me down for 59. Subtract a little since I've been burning since third week in September then add a little since my free wood guy made a...
Started the OWB on September 26th. Been burning spruce, pine, white birch & poplar since that day. It's been in the 20's at night for the last...
As seen on Craigslist: Used rick of firewood. Works good. $150! OBO. :rofl: :lol:
How do I "Like" this post twice? Thanks dusky- we're truly blessed. My son and I went for his first haircut this morning! Thankfully he was all...
Just me. My wife helped the first year, then got pregnant, then got pregnant again. And that pretty much ended that! The silver lining? Now I've...
Really? Sounds eerily like middle school shinannigans to me!
I'm new here, so can someone let me in on the secret? Why are we so reluctant to use "the other site's" name? I ask because I have no idea which...
