Well....I go with the generally accepted standard of less than 20 percent on a freshly split face. I wish we had some oak/maple here so I could...
I keep seeing posts where a lot of you guys have to season wood for over a year...sometimes 2. This is a completely foreign concept to us (well,...
I dont have a flue thermometer. The one on top of the stove floats between 400f and 800f. I dont pay much attention to it. If it's in the red, I...
Yeah...it's because the special wood I burn is.....ok....who am I kidding. I just cleaned it tonight. :D LOL.
I'm lucky. I've got 20" from front to back....wood is cut to 18". :)
Here you go...here's mine. I just put 2 fresh pieces in it, and throttled it right back. See the hot spot on the bottom ? That's the primary air...
One other thing. Put your wood in front to back (north south) instead of sideways (east west). It'll improve the primary air flow to the back of...
Lol. I dont even work for them. I'm a heavy mining mechanic/millwright. :) My buddy called today. A new shaft, plus shipping, plus some "overtime"...
I spent most weekends with my grandfather who heated with wood his entire life. I know from pictures that I would help him get firewood pretty...

40% ?!?!?!?! I cut down a perfectly growing pine this summer.....the wettest summer since I moved here 12 years ago. It measured in the low 30%...
Yeah....some of them get downright huge. I don't know about the actual BTUs it puts out, but whatever it lacks in BTUs, it makes up for in the...
Over the past couple of months, we've been expanding our club shooting range. This has involved clearing out a lot of 80 ft tall poplars. Since...
While I think you're going to be a scratching post between management and labor, I think some people are fine being in the position. Personally,...
That was painful to watch. No, really...watching people like that makes my head hurt. Lol.
Nice setup !! Your back will thank you for doing this Smoky. I just put in my trap door next to my stove/wood rack and it turned a 45 minute job...
It would have been back in 2004 or 2005, while living in Burlington Ontario. My neighbor came over to my place and begged me to come and read his...
I look a little better than that after a hard day on the saw.....well....fatter anyway....and with a beard. ;)
