Dang, those insects try my patience. We're bad with black flies in May - this time of year it's deer flies, and they're miserable too. This...
I'm on an Ash tear this year... today I might have taken down the 10th or 12th so far this season. I still have a few living, but surely not for...
I've got a ton of beech, and a lot of it is sick with BBD. Agreed that it's real good burning. BUT, I hand split my wood, so beech sometimes...
My old man never covered his wood :rofl: :lol:, so I never did either, but lately I've started covering it. Seems it can't hurt and can only...
That's a big, big tree as well (just commented on someone else's beautiful booty). Nice.
That is a big, big tree. Some good BTUs, for sure. Jealous.
A lot of good suggestions here. We had a yellow jacket hole a few years back... our dufus golden retriever managed to get stung INSIDE his...
Been there, done that. o_O
Nice. Every year, I say I'm 'upgrading' my splitter. :) (I'm still hand splitting... 5 stinking cords a year)
Wow, looks great. THIS is the biggest reason I wanted a Woodstock when I was shopping. Alas, the clearances wouldn't allow it. Sounds like a...
I love the forests of the PNW. We have good forest here, but not like that.

Yes, this is great advice. From my stove's manual: The International Residential Code (IRC) does not allow the outside air duct to terminate...
Wow. Not the dustbuster of old, they've come a long way. The filter isn't constantly clogged by the ash? I've got a shop vac with a secondary...
Anyone have one? Pluses and minuses? How much can be vacuumed before the filters have to be cleaned? Amazon's got several in the $100 range and...
That thing is 20 years old?!?!?! Dang, looks real nice.
Wow. I've wondered if this was possible given the numerous smaller woomfs I see quite often. Wonder how bad it can get?
Yah, the wind has been interesting to me as I get to know my stove. When it's real gusty, like over 40, of course I could always hear it in my...
I'm paying significantly more for a cord of his kiln dried, vs a cord of his 'seasoned'. He won't guarantee moisture content below 20 on the...
Totally agreed, which is why I'm going with kiln dried wood. The supplier guarantees mc below 20%, which it better be if it's kiln dried. Good,...
