Just blowing past 2 cords here. Another two weeks and I will be passing what I burned for the entire year each of the last three winters. Suppose...
lol. :rofl: :lol: That's actually a very good description. I have burned some in the past and put it about in the same group as cottonwood as far...
I believe that is how most all of us consider accurate testing: on a fresh split face. And I have seen <20% on the outside and 40%+ on a fresh...
I am having a really, really hard time with that study. Something is amiss as top covered wood is not going from 75%mc to less than 20% in 6...
I just used the data logging with the primary thermocouple on my Bacharach PCA3 combustion analyzer. I have some toys like this for work. :)
Well, I survived but not quite as good as I hoped. Woke up 9 hours after reload to 67*. I was expecting 69 or 70* but we did hit -21*. I wish I...
Keeping up just fine. -17*F and wind chill is -42*. Just made a 12 hour run on locust at -10* to -15* and the house was at 70* at reload with STT...
A pair of slippers may be in order? :D You could call one of the hot water pressure washer guys. :confused:
I can start a full load no problem with 1/4 super ceder if I am starting a 1/2+ full load. Thing is that only happens about 2 times per year as...
Look right on top of the secondary tube. The baffle boards are the two gray pieces you see right on top of the tube and if you look close right in...
If you wants pics of the ugly pile 6' high 12' wide and 35' feet long I'll be happy to get some if it stops poring rain.:( There is a good reason...
Moisture or wet? A little damp on a hot coal bed probably not a problem. Soaking wet not good.
Anytime between 20* and 80*. And years like last one when I have 15 cords of rounds piled in the yard any dang time I can make myself. Now next...
Just keep in mind that these type calculations are for equipment sizing, not actual heat loss. In other words it is: 1) Making assumptions on more...
Through the mid winter, about the coldest twelve weeks, I am pretty much with everyone else at 2 weeks average. Shoulder season is the big...
Dave I would say that is pretty close to correct. I have tested multiple weighed loads vs calculated heat loss vs tested loss in my house and...
We're getting closer to plain black, looking pretty good. The darn door is still hinged on the wrong side though. :confused:
Just got back from running to the store and the thermometer says -5*F wind chill is -22*. Ouch it actually kind of hurts. Reloaded last night at...
Is that a Lincoln grill? :eek: I do not think I could have restrained myself. :rofl: :lol: Look at the bright side, they did at least use black...
Definitely plowing thru the wood. Real winter is here early this year. Woke up to a whopping 1* this morning with a -18* wind chill. Good thing is...
