I've never looked at sweet gum very close, but it looks like elm to me. Of course not all elm die from Dutch Elm Disease, but if it looks like...
It's still 63 degrees out here, got the room up to 91, turning the fan on only circulated hot air, had to open the doors. Burning oak and other...
Not to sound like an echo in here, but WOW! That's a great score, gotta jump on that opportunity. A lot of that looks like it already has a jump...
I just discovered Chaneterells this summer. They've been growing in my back yard by the grocery store bag fulls for years and I had no idea. Now...
Just catching up on this post. I have been pouring my morel rinse water out in the back yard, and I've found about 10 morels over the years from...
Over the last couple years I've occasionally (maybe 6 times) had a very brief small rumble like explosion. Needless to say, it was very...
Beautiful bowl and pens. I have a lot of black walnut, that I wish I was talented enough to make something with, other than fire. T.Jeff Veal,...
Finally cleaning up the back yard of all the leaves, it usually takes about 4 solid days. I used to enjoy this, but the last few years I have come...
Happy belated birthday Chaz ! Blow out a cake and eat a candle! or something like that..

I have a Pleasant Hearth LWS-127201.

Around here, oak (red/white/black) is the most abundant. Hickory is prized for burning and aroma. Locust. Sugar Maple. Bonus types are Ash, and...
Yup, Drolet even mentions how many holes. The more I learn about wood stoves, the less I'm impressed with my stove, and much less with the support...
Not in the Ozarks, but I'm in NE Missouri near Florida, Samuel Clemons birthplace. It's more farmland here than south of the river, but we still...
Really the stove seems to burn good, I'm just questioning the arrangement of the burn tubes. I called the manufacturer today to see what they...
Nothing is catching on the gasket, no adhesive, just lay it in place around the edge of the glass and secure with 7 metal tabs. There's definitely...
Good question! The door glass gasket is damaged, and in need of replacement. The stove is only 3 years old, and I'm on my second gasket, soon to...
My stove has 3 secondary burn tubes, each one has a different number of holes. The tube with the fewest number of holes is in the rear, the tube...
