Well I have been splitting on this guy for a bit now, working all the bugs out. Got some hose routing and leaking problems figured and sorted out....
Had the first fire here the other night. Temps were down to around 40-42 and the house had been closed up all day so it didn't warm up. Little bit...

what does my post count on FHC have to do with the price of tea in China? same thing it has to do with my welding credentials and experience:...
