Welcome aboard. Looks like you're off to great start with wood, and a nice spot to sit and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Thank you for the...
The house held its warmth well overnight, but came hone this afternoon to 62, so the beast is choochin. White pine is still the order of the day....
Welcome! Good start with the wood pics. :) Sounds like you have your high btu wood lined up and are handling it properly. Looking forward to your...
Yep. Would probably settle out west in Montana or Idaho. Maybe not - we've planned on retiring to northern NH, so that could work too. Might have...
I've used a pair of stretch gloves (the little cloth gloves usually next to the register in winter at Wal-Mart etc) under the work gloves for...
Looking good! I know you've said so before, but how old is the little one? Bet she loved the cakes. My youngest is ten months and really getting...
Wow! Those look fantastic. Got any leftovers? I could get to the cape and back in about six hours, with enough time in the middle to eat, and...
Ever make abt's? Halve the jalapeno, scoop out seeds, add cream cheese and a little nugget of cheddar, wrap in bacon, into the smoker for an hour....
Nice! I stack on hardwood eight footers, but not quite as stout as what you've got there - mine have 2x4 rails underneath. The weight difference...
I only mention this since you said it borders a driveway - silver maple around here drops limbs like it's their job or something. Big ones, too,...
Nice work. Looks like a good bit of firewood in a pretty tight space. Many say they don't have enough room, but fail to try and make what they...
Thank you for the info! Looks like a '73 and a '74 by the serial numbers. Both are eight digits, one begins with "4" and one with "3."
Call me crazy, but I love it. Of course, I'm also the weirdo that likes the smell of burning willow, so take my recommendations with a grain of...
Looking good! Mine will be cutting their teeth (well, for me. Somebody else put plenty of miles on them before I came along!) tomorrow on some...
Thanks for the tips - Mrs Papi is committed to helping keep her eyes peeled, and will call with anything she finds, marked or not. Would be great...
That's one bad hombre. Thanks for the video and pics! Your saws look pretty "sharp" there. Did you restore them, or just keep them clean, or come...
Thank you as always for the pics, Dave. You do great work, and it must be a joy to work out there! -edit- for the record, your uglies look better...
I do ok with my three new era (mid 90s) Lodge skillets, but looking at the old goods I can't help but think I could do better with a little elbow...
Thank you - I went back to read and found exactly what I was looking for. I don't want to give up the seasoning on my pans, but I think I'll get a...
Glad you're finally reaping the rewards of your labor, sir. :)
