Way to get er done!
I'll stand by Ariens for sure. Reliable, fixable, parts are cheap and plentiful. I think front drive/steer is more things to break, and heated...
Looking good! How big is that carport? Looks like it would hold quite a stash..
They do - we considered a corner install but would have wound up running the chimney in the front of the house, or moving the place where...
Not a corner install. It will be against an exterior wall. Nice setup on the upstairs stove there, Buckthorn.
Norway Maple, yeah? Good stuff! Burns between red and sugar maple in my neck of the woods, and seems to split and dry easy.
Visitors shall be handed a pair of loppers and put to work!
Negative.. 96" ceiling minus 33" stove minus 16" hearth = 45". The IS is 30.5-35.5” depending on leg height setting. Pretty tall stove.
Bought one for our last tiling project at the old house, thankfully kept it when we moved! Slate may be the way to go.
We're you short on the recommended height, or on roof line clearance? My insurance company is pretty lazy with inspections so I don't expect them...
I'm decent height, but ceilings are 8' so I'll have to have a chat with the fire chief next time I drop my daughter off at the station, as well as...
Hi Earl, The deed says 1850, which fits with the history as I understand it. I have the Boston and Albany railroad running very close by, and the...
We're looking at a slightly smoothed stacked stone for vertical surfaces, pad is still under hot debate. We were thinking 16, but with the large...
Ideal Steel is on order, looks like mid to late August for pick up date. Guess I better get started on a hearth pretty soon! We'd like to be at...
I burn plenty and find that even in rounds it doesn't rot very fast. Get it off the ground, under a cover, and don't worry about it. Though I...
Some red maple css two winters ago, the rest of what I'll be into was done in spring and summer last year. Ash, sugarmaple, red oak that I'll...
Yeah, that's kind of where I was going. Not necessarily something as dramatic as a societal collapse, but even something as simple as the company...
Assuming I'm fortunate enough to get this done before burning season, I'll be operating with some marginal wood this year, having split and...
Ramps are where it's at for the bigguns. I've had rounds in the truck big enough to block most of the back window.. All about leverage and simple...
Thanks again for the deeper detail. I'm not too concerned with the expense or maintenance time, more so an emergency of some sort where the cat...
