Can’t figure out how handling firewood wrecks leather gloves so fast. Found a way to extend their use after the finger pads break through......
jeez Dave, even your interim stacks look neat & orderly. We do enjoy your pictures!
I will go back to brushing the flue twice a year because last week’s cleaning (first time going a whole year) got about 3 quarts of stuff looking...
I think the firebox smoke wanders down through the ash grate unless the grate is covered with ashes.
The first year using the IS, we got that creosote buildup on the ashpan area and door. In my case it was caused by my OCD clearing out all the...
On a windy day, I broadcast it sparse on our 2 acre lawn. Wind dispersal. It has nutrients, but no nitrogen.

That shed temp sure will speed up the drying. It's been hot (90's) here too and no rain for 17 days. Great time to haul this winter's wood from...
Hate to admit, but somewhere along the way I became a firewood snob. Won't gather anything less than silver maple any more, I would have left it...
Stopping to rescue a lone hunk of wood is the right thing to do. Good on ya, Dennis!
My moisture meter has a setting for wood or concrete, but none for "dried varmint carcass".
WTH? Check for some sort of gravity anomaly where that stack was.
Jackpot right there. Smells like pancake breakfast when it burns (in my dreams, anyway).
I like the new proposed area (the pic with a Kubota) for stacks - it looks more open breezy and sunny than your present stack. I like the idea of...
Sounds like a good deal to me. You have the right machinery for it too.
What an awesome birthday gift! Hmmmm.... how to copy/paste this thread URL into my wife's email and do it secretly ????? JUst kidding.
