That confuses me a good bit. Not having a cat probe, I've been using the front magnetic thermo as a general indication of whether my cold start or...
I am still yearning for a combuster probe setup (design and tested by Woodstock). Not that the pioneers here who have done it wrong or anything. I...
My DW has way-more-than-necessary collections of shampoo's and lotions. If all the stores were to close, we'd be OK for a few years. She says I...
First thing comes to mind is "man, have they ever got a LOT of splitting to do!"
Neat idea on the nonslip boots. Not just a little bit of wood you're doin' there either.
Posts from the IS beta testers and owners this year indicate the hottest surface is the front above the door just right side of the cat port....
Enjoyed your early review Chestnut, and if the paint is fully cured yet might you be interested in putting the magnetic thermo just to the right...
Yes, what a great score - cherry AND a saw! I hope the Poulan works out for you without much issue. Either way, a bunch of good-smelling BTU's...
Yes, but if I understand the convoluted rules, if you used the credits in previous years of this series, then you may not be eligible for the...
Burned maybe a bit ovef a cord so far. Beefing up the attic insulation from R-15 to R-45 helped alot. Mostly white oak left now.
Great pictures, Chestnut - if you are replacing an old Defiant with your new IS, yer in for a treat. Ours replaced a VC Encore and we are very...
Good job, FBF. That one was most certainly a monster. 3 cords of white oak should make a fine reward for your effort. Good stuff!
Thank you Greg.
You got a good size load there, Greg. Cherry is wonderful stuff and has a good scent, too.
Don't see any 'checking' cracks on that end cut. Another hint for not dried, but not definitive either. Moisture meter on freshly exposed split...
Thanks for this post, which reminds me to contact our insurance Co. They came out, measured, took pictures, compared to manual specs and copied...
And GPS to be sure the stacks run perfect N-S or E-W.
Step 2. A laser beam to line up the ends? Just guessing here...
You got that one just in time. Any much longer and it would have become a squirrel condominium. Good job Dennis!
Good catch LP. That ramp is a great idea. Work smarter, not harder. Oak will never let you down, no matter how cold the wintet gets.
