Another mixed load of cherry and hickory in the Lopi this morning. This year's cherry supply should be exhausted by tomorrow, which I'm okay with....
That's going to be one happy customer :thumbs: You inspired me to bring in a couple stove loads of BL for this weekend's cold snap. This year I...
There’s a two-lined chestnut borer that attacks oaks under the bark, but those tracks look too large to be the culprit. Was this a dead or live...
27 here at home, but only expecting it to drop a couple more degrees by morning. Spruce, cherry and hickory are the tools for the job tonight.
Out here it’s still called government work, or G-Job for short. I can tell you that nobody works harder than the guy sneaking something in on...
Cilantro is a cool weather annual, so it has to be planted every year. I have however planted it in the spring, let it go to seed, and it...
I'm almost hoping that's the case :) The power company sent out an alert this morning via text and email about the coming storm. Depending on when...

My stove will take up to a 20 1/2" split running east-west, but only a 14" running north-south. Most of my firewood is cut either 16 or 18 inches,...

campinspecter has cut plenty of large trees at altitude, and has some spectacular photos documenting his adventures.
I’ve got a long cycle time with the current job on my machine, and the operator of the lathe across the aisle is out on vacation, as is my...
I don’t have a thermometer on the flue yet :emb: I don’t usually run the stove wide open for more than the first 10 minutes or so, until the fire...
Update: I’m going to have to change the geometry on the O.D. of the pellet. Although I was able to accurately hold the size to match the Daisy...
Thanks. I'm a little nervous about the aluminum galling up the barrel, but I figured it's worth a shot (or 33). The aluminum is 7075 grade which...
