This one reminds me of the wood burner that we used to heat the shop when I worked for Fred. One chilly morning (California chilly) the first...
Long, long ago I lived in a cave in the Sierra Nevada. A nearby forest provided our firewood, including aspen which we used for cooking. Standing...
It happens around here, lots of people hauling firewood down the highway. If it's oak I'll stop, softwoods not so much (and I can tell at 50 mph).
I posted about the same problem as the OP. Using my propane torch shoved into the firebox exit seems to help. Keeping the fire going helps even...
It does pay to get out and meet people. I've been noticing that my work load and income have been down lately. I have known that this was...

I have relied on PG&E (power) and Caltrans (highway dept.) for a large part of my wood supply. As part of the wildfire mitigation program, they...

I like 'em like this. [IMG] Plenty of leverage and harder to lose. I started buying this style in hex (Allen) when I worked as a machinist in a...
For those who happen onto this thread after the ad is gone: [ATTACH]
I've been relying on the power line maintenance contractors for PG&E for my wood for several years. They're getting REALLY aggressive since the...
It does concern me and I drive accordingly, much to the dismay of the drivers behind me. I pull over frequently.
This is a classic case of "don't ask, don't tell". I can put 128 cu ft. in my 3/4 ton GMC without going over the top of the side racks.[ATTACH]...
By west coast standards that's some serious BTUs. Not to mention very little limbing, Wish I could lay my hands on some without spending $100/cord...
