The only truly effective answer for pure ice is studs: [img] For most of us, studs aren't a reasonable answer. A lot of states flat out ban them...
Well, I finally get to be the information-giver on the website for once! Normally it's you guys helping me but this is what I did professionally...
This year, property maintenance isn't going to match our burn rate, so I need to buy logs for the first time. Does anyone know of a logger that'll...
The cold snap got us to work on getting the stove ready for the year. A friend of mine got up on the roof for me and pushed all the soot down into...
He has. He came down with Walt when Walt dropped a problem tree for me.
We use em too. The big change last year was that we found out the little tractor will pick them up once the wood dries. With green wood in them,...
I'll be coming up hopefully. Almost certainly it'll be just on Saturday afternoon/evening.
I promised picture and here they are. Nothing too good because I was much more concerned with not letting anything fall on me than being in the...
Walt did just blow through like a tornado and dropped the tree. It was a dammed good decision not to do it myself. Inspecting it, he had concerns...
Walt, that's an amazing offer. I'm going to send you a PM with my contact info in it so we can talk about getting this set up!
I'll try to get a picture tomorrow but you're not going to see as much as you hope. Now that everything's fully leafed out, you can't see any of...
We're in the southwest corner of Etna Township, which is the southwest corner of Licking county. I can throw a stone and hit Licking, Franklin,...
We had mostly ash on our property and the EAB has kicked our butts. Because many of the biggest trees were already dead when we bought the place,...
You have to remember that the consumer market is HUGELY price-driven. Woodstock, like all stove makers, sells the overwhelming majority of their...
The thing maaaybe is just getting back under control but it's faked me out before. It spent about 2 hours wandering fairly rapidly up and down...
My Ideal Steel is throwing me a new one. I reloaded on a small bed of coals about 90 minutes ago but only loaded less than a half a firebox full...
Yes, as I already said, the flue temp is from a thermocouple probe in the pipe. The STT is a thermocouple measurement as well. You can see it...
Flue I run up to 750F (measured with a thermocouple probe through the pipe) and throw the cat in, which usually knocks the flue down into the...
Wow you guys run them hot! With our Ideal Steel, 320F overheats the house and I think the highest I've seen it to is around 360F. In the last two...
Both the price and the weight seem a lot nicer than my Ideal Steel. I'll be very interested to get reports from people who get these stoves to see...
