My early stuff all came from the city's branch drop off. After the city guys went home at noon on Saturday, all the small time tree guys would...
Ground score...gotta make better friends with my two realtor neighbors:drunk:
I listened to many on my first stove too. Took me a second one to figure out it really was the stove. Congrats on the new stove!
Don't hold your breath...I have two buildings with a lot of work needed before that's gonna happen. There is an old Ramsey hydraulic winch in the...
I like it; then I might not need to put brakes in it:rofl: :lol:
I'm not sure I'll ever be able to get my truck around in our woods without trashing it because of the terrain. Have a rotted out mid 60s Jeep...
If you can't move the stove upstairs, I'd say 1) caulk/foam/weatherstrip any air gaps 2) use window film long before you think about replacing...
Heard that and you already have the distribution setup which I would have to add. I was convinced a boiler was in my future but I think I am $20K...
Gotcha, so work a spot until its cleaned out and make as many runs back and forth to get the wood out to your stacks? With your Rhino/trailer...

I don't have any pics of my plumbing hack but here is one of the 3 pt setup. The two hoses you see going into the splitter valve went to shut off...
Here is a chart with a bunch of species both green and air dried weights http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/weigt-wood-d_821.html and this one with...
Yep, backup heat is a nice luxury. Also means my wife won't have to run the stove hard when I'm gone.
Pretty sure it is the first time that has happened since we got the BK. I was pretty happy to find out that 8000W of electric baseboard is all I...
Enjoy...that one is clearly outside my wheel house
Once you get away from a splitter you can run off the tractor hydraulics directly with minimal cost, 3 pt splitters get real expensive compared to...
Mine does the same thing when its cold...often has to run for hours before the hydraulics will move when its real cold.
