3:07 PM yesterday. Lorin had the specs I initially wanted, but after seeing their "the Works" package, it was less than $30.00 to go all in. Not...
I ordered at 3:07 PM Eastern time ....
I was order #1 according to Lorin. Tee hee hee!
Ha, that's a question I was going to pose. Not to sound accusatory, but stove manufacturers are often, shall we say, "generous" with their...
Folks, my fan idea my have just gone out the window. Here is a screenshot of the Ideal design that was posted on Woodstock's site. If you look at...
This won't earn any sympathy, but the big box stores have stopped selling winter gear....no rock salt, snow shovels etc. If you are looking for...
I have been thinking about this project all day (yeah, it was a little quiet at work today :whistle:) The first order of business would be to...
Depending on the heat shield design, this may be an easy project. Here are photos of a plug-in Drolet Fan and thermodisc. The question is whether...

Good stuff Brian. One thing I wanted to ask you about was that in your photos with the Ideal, it seems to be placed relatively close to the wall...
Top down lighting, on a cold startup, has been a much better procedure on this end. For an EPA tube stove, it makes sense....what I do is build a...
I would like to know how I can become a beta tester of the Ideal. It will be a brutal sacrifice, but somebody has to do it...:drunk:
Thanks for the tip. Part of the issue is that while I have an EPA tube stove, the firebox is 2.4 cubic feet....that would be enough for a lot of...
OK, I know I'm justifying the purchase of the Ideal to myself :drunk:, but....the issue of the ash pan goes beyond convenience IMO. With my...
I am digging that setup...some stoves have ash cleanout ports that require the stove to be cold, which isn't very helpful. The Ideal setup seems...
