Yeah, running a cat stove with controllable output is different than a tube stove. You don’t “load the amount of wood for the heat needed” you...
The design, intent, and economics dictate that this part be removed and replaced when it fails. It is certainly possible to press in new bearings...
If you only get half a season then you’re right, 40$ is expensive. They’re not that expensive on the ultra common craftsman style deck and if...
Every 15 years just replace them. Super cheap!
I have lots of gaps around the baffle boards in my NC30. It is intentional since things need to be able to move. The gaps actually shrink as it...
Could be as simple as Woodstock wanting to underpromise and over deliver. As a manufacturer you don't want to disappoint.
Its great that this art is an option for those that want it but hands and shoes sticking out are not my thing.
So what was the grand total? Did they nip you for WA SST? I too would go plain jane, I just can't handle the extensive "art".
Do not trust burn times from hearthstone or really any manufacturer in their marketing brochure. Talk to actual owners. The new hearthstone cats...
Im up north if you in western Washington at 750’ near mt rainier. I burn mostly Doug fir these days. Full time, no other heat, in 1700 sf of 1963...

A 200 degree stove after 19 hours. Not terrible for 2.0 cubic feet but 200 is not what most folks consider burning and the fire has certainly gone...
Does oil pump life change with expensive oil? I but gallons at Walmart. When I was a kid, dad had us use engine oil.
We humans tend to like putting roads, houses, lawns, pastures, etc. in places where trees once were. That’s all the reason you need to remove a...
What if you just had a stove that was both more efficient and would actually burn that whole time? 14 hours is no problem. No thermal mass or...
Probably because “burn time” is not the same as “stove kinda warm” time. After running a stone stove for many years I prefer a welded steel stove...
The weight of the stove has nothing to do with burn time. The firebox size and available range of heat output does.
Good for them. Hope it’s true, I had a hearthstone heritage that had problems but it delivered on specified burn times. Being able to slow the...
Infected numbers going up just means more people are being tested. Since we know that most carriers aren’t sick it’s really a waste of time to...
I dump them wherever my ash goes after stirring them up to break them down. Either in the garden or in the compost heap. It’s not toxic like coal...
