Got a new small saw for as an early bday present :D I was wanting a small saw for limbing and bucking up small firewood. Got an MS192TC Seems...
I suppose it could even be my reloading technique. I normally don't let that much coaling happen and just put 3-4 pieces right on top of a hot...
Just a thought here but I'm wondering if it could be more from the wood than anything else. I've pretty much only been burning very dry box elder...
I think that is the next step HD is to do a smoke test and see if I get any pulling around the stove
I'm wondering now if it might be a problem with the air control. I might check that out a little more
Well I did a few checks today and all the gaskets are sealed good. I checked the door adjustment as well as the dollar bill test around all the...
I'm pointing towards and air leak but I can't pin point where. I just checked the ash pan and it is sealed good. I've never questioned the doors...

Well I thought I was getting the hang of the IR this week... Until tonight. I loaded it with 4 big splits of box elder and another soft wood and...
I'll take some pleeeeze!! :D

I remember seeing this video last year. He had several videos and posts about it. Never heard if anything did get resolved with it. That stove was...

Must be that alien technology! I put 4 medium size splits of cherry in my IR the other night and 8 hours later the stove was still at 200F with...
