50 here going down to 42 for low. Just started a fire of mulberry and black cherry, already up 2 degrees to 71. End of the week looks good for...
Forgot the rules :emb: Here are the flames rolling down from the cat and the highest SST I have seen so far [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Here is the low...
I was tempted, but decided to let the furnace do the work. My family is spoiled now and expect a fire always. I just don't like to burn above 55...
Me too. This warm weather is a bit of a bummer for learning my new stove, I think I'm going to go out and cut tomorrow; still have 1/2 cord of...
I would love to see that. :popcorn:
A cat stove will surely help that. While my old stove was a cat stove, it was rear draft and not designed air tight so I too had rather short...
My Fireview is even more boring than your BK in "black screen" mode; the glowing cat is not visible unless you are on the floor looking up above...
papadave, what will you do with all your free time once you finally get a BK? I've never burned a tube stove or a BK, but they seem to be on...
Big change from what you described earlier; you are taking on a lot of work in the exchange. I congratulate you on your patience and flexibility....
39 here, burning some black cherry, pallet scraps and gren bricks. Back to evening fires for the next 4-5 days as lows will be well above...
Thimble height and need for rear draft severely limited my options. I really got lucky with the Fireview. Above all, I like the natural beauty...
Woodstock service is great. But, I see the stove as the cake and the service as the frosting. If the cake doesn't meet your wants/needs, doesn't...
I've been burning mostly black cherry mixed with a bit of silver maple or oak. The long burn I had last night was a 6 inch white oak round, two...
That does it, I am officially [IMG]
A few thoughts on the Fireview after two months of burning: Holding overnight fires is so nice! (6 pm @ 71 to 6 am @ 69 last night 250 STT at...
I'll let the furnace carry the load before middle of the night reloads; I don't think either will be necessary. I like the 9 pm - 7 am schedule...
I'm glad you are getting a load. I can't get that mountain of blocks out of my head; I'd take a dump truck load of them if I could. Looking...
It is hard to tell the size (or species) of those pieces, but they look perfect for loading in the back of the Fireview for getting those long...
Just out of curiosity, approximately how long would that double stack of birch be if it contained all the wood you have burned over the years in...
That will be tough to season. I build corrals for my chunk wood. If me, I would season it covered in a jumbled pile with as many gaps as...
