I'm pretty lucky that my buddy who calls me sometimes to pick up wood also sells firewood, so when he cuts down a tree for somebody, he does a...
Wow! My load was definitely not that heavy! It was close to home though, only 4 miles or so, which was about a 10 minute drive.
I feel bad for the old tree. Apparently, one of the main branches was hanging over their house and their insurance was requiring they remove the...
Buddy of mine called me and said he took down a red oak and needed some help hauling it out. He told me if came out and helped him for an hour I...
But what does it technically mean to be seasoned? Surely letting a certain time pass for the sake of letting time pass doesn't make something...
Yep, also more of an issue with pre-EPA stoves that would send the sparks straight up the chimney. The baffles in my stove prevent those sparks...

Here are some more pics of what it looks like at night with the hearth lights on. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Same stack as you. Very happy with it so far. Very little Durva Vent, mine 90's and exits my house pretty close to the stove to meet clearance...
Thanks. It was a lot of work. When I moved into this house, the fireplace opening was much smaller and the fireplace breast was visual only....

Thanks. The lot actually isn't that small, but the easily accessible place for a woodshed is. There is a large elevation change in my backyard...
