Wood hog? Definitely. But. 1)It's a non-EPA unit. 2)It makes a ton of heat 3)Radiant heat off the thing, especially the front, plus duct...
I still have my old hotblast furnace from TSC in the basement. I disconnected the ductwork, and use it when I want to do something down there. Or...
N/S loading and an 8" deep belly eliminates that kind of moment. I had a small piece pop and jump out on the top of my bare foot once. That was...
Nah, twelve hours is about it, lately. Considering the difference in fire box size, I'd say we're burning at about the same rate. The pizzer there...
I just sent this pic to my gas man, and told him to bring a shovel :D It's in there somewhere. [ATTACH]
Nice write up. It makes perfect sense.
http://www.farmshow.com/view_articles.php?a_id=646 I can't imagine spending that much time in a pickup. Seating postion alone would cripple me.
Tell them when they lift the lid to check the guage, let the lid slam a time or two, then check it again. They stick all the time. My friend had...
Been burning a couple loads in the basement furnace. Makes the floors warmer and temps more even thru the house. Also lets me burn the BK a little...
I just cleaned mine the other day, and this is what came out. If you can tell with the extreme flash o_O . It was maybe 3 cups of soot. [ATTACH]...
Yep, looks just like mine. I even get a couple chunks like that out of the cap. Mine isn't quite that tall, and I twist off the top section when...
I talked to my propane guy, who is actually a close friend, about it the other day. He said pretty much everything you read about it on the...
We're only 78 over ambient here ;)
Except for the piston slap. Which wasn't really a problem.
I think I'd run that sooteater up thru there. Sounds more like a draft issue than anything else. Cap screen? Cold flue?
Yes, mine looks pretty nasty outside. Inside not bad at all. I just cleaned it last week, and got 2-3 cups of powdery stuff out of it. I have a...
The bigger dead one is white ash. The three small ones are elm. Never burned any locust before. I'm pretty sure that tree will fit in one load,...
It was a nice day to be out. Cold again next week.
Things have settled down after work, holidays, weather, and work all jacked up by holidays and weather. I was able to get something done today. It...
I got rid of the small ones. My wife picked some up, as did my MIL and SIL. Had about six of them, and never used them. I guess that's why they...
