Eckie Backwoods speaketh the truth:) If your in the learning mode and going to replace a old wood stove for sure at least consider a Cat...
29F and 72F. Just reloaded with a mishmash of HW. Sounds like mid 40's today.
Yaaaaa. Apparently that's 5 star eats out thatta way:rofl: :lol:
25F and still outdoors. Nice. 74F indoors with the stove slowly chewing on yesterdays load of big old Elm half rounds. Anyone watching the news...
Sounds like it's hitting the advertised numbers for you with the odd sized soft Maple. Nice. Thanks

Haaaa! That is exactly what I find with standing dead Elm here as well. WET! Can't tell ya how many threads I've read about excited hoarders that...
23f currently and nice and warm inside (73f). The wind finally quit. About time. Heading for a high of 40f this afternoon. It could stay in this...
How did the load of Oak work out? Heat output, burn time etc. Fill us in as you get it figured out.
Ahhhhh? Artificial XMas tree's? If thats the case.... It's a first here that I am aware of:rofl: :lol:
