Thanks for the compliment! We're getting the IS installed in September, and will be running the Progress Hybrid as well. I'll likely create a post...
Welcome to the site. You've come to the right place - a lot of beta testers for the Ideal Steel here. Beautiful stove by the way, and great photo.
My condolences on the recent loss of your brother. Good to have things in the home to remember your family members by. Guy I work with had a...
Speaking of beer [ATTACH] Tried this today after splitting a bunch of beech and and a little birch. Didn't have to work too hard, but do I need...
Great photo. Is that you up in the truck? Looks like you've seen an honest day's work or two. :) I've looked into the Eko, and we might even need...
I'll lead off with the good points about this unit. Ours was the 42,000 btu type. I believe that they no longer make this unit, but have a...
The library's resources are very convenient for me, since while I'm a firewood hoarder at night and on weekends, I'm a librarian by trade! It was...

Prayers from our family to yours.

Evelyn, my oldest in the pic organized the chicken purchase. In addition to the ones you mentioned (good eye), we have a Brahma, Araucana,...
The kids and the chickens. [ATTACH] The asparagus bed, sunchokes and dent corn. Can barely see the raspberries. Yup, we're practicing front yard...

What a wealth of information! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and time. Love the picture of the old "pig." Must have been a heck of a lot of...
