I've learned, after many failures, to avoid Taco. All of my Taco pumps are being replaced with Grundfos circs as they fail. For those long runs...
I use a 5x12, 30-plate Taco exchanger. It's probably a hair too small, should have a 40-plate I think. Never had a problem with calcification...
As you have read in another thread, I like my Heatmaster G200. I think you would be better served with a 400-series. There are other good brands...
Ditch the broken one, get a Fiskars.
Paint. :whistle:
I had a 361 before I traded it in on my Dolmar 6400. It is a really good saw, power to weight ratio is high for the class. It will open up and...
https://www.extension.purdue.edu/extmedia/FNR/FNR-79.pdf The article states that all wood, regardless of species and oven dry (i.e. negligible MC...
I like that. Might have someone cut an old axe head for me with a waterjet for the same purposes.
I have used an OWB since 2004/5 winter season and operate it continuously 24/7/365 for heat and hot water. I can't ration, because if I did, the...
I have a pile of BL at the end of my driveway, all 12-14' lengths that I am saving for fence posts. It's been there three years and no bark,...
If it was me, I'd burn that now.
I've used lots of different gloves over the years, always had the same problems. Fingers and thumbs wore out, seams ripped, etc. Bought Showa...
All the axe throwing targets I've seen have been a large pine or other softwood round, 30" to 36" diameter and about a foot thick, mounted to some...
Sure looks like soft maple to me.
Bar oil from Tractor Supply. $7 a gallon on sale, sometimes $6 if you're lucky. I stocked up a year or so ago, bought 6 gallons and am still...
I use Stihl chainsaw pants. Basically denim with several layers of protection sewn in. I hate chaps, hate the buckles and straps, the pants go...
I usually have ash in my stacks, at least a little bit. This year I might have a quarter of a cord to burn, and next year zero. This winter is...
I assume that's full cords? If so, that is a crazy amount of firewood for just two houses and a milkhouse. Although I guess I was going through...
It would work. My woodshed is more or less a metal version of what you describe. A shed roof supported by poles. I guess it's whether or not...
Stove is running well, going to be hooking it up to my garage in the next month or two. That should put a bit more demand on the system. Didn't...
