I had my first real fire today! I put in 4, 4" splits of sugar maple this morning at 5:30 when I got up. STT is still over 200. I had a couple...
Flat stock from the local home depot. Few minutes with a torch, and a few whacks over a sharp corner. [ATTACH]
Truly I've been blown away. The slow steady heat is wonderful. The stove is in our living room, but because it's all open, it never feels...
I've been running on the 12 hr schedule w/my Keystone for the last ~10 years as long as the temps are above 10F for the high. When it gets lower...
My plan was for the 2nd floor to be isolated from the first. At least for sometime, I don't plan on heating / cooling the first floor and it will...
Hello folks! The wife and I are wrapping up the initial build of our garage / barn that I eventually plan on adding an office to the 2nd floor....
I've been using this one for ~6 years and it still looks new....
I built an 18x8 leanto that I stack mine in. I only burn 1.5-2 cords per year, so that shed will hold 4 years worth. I used 1x6 for siding,...
~1400 sq ft strawbale house near Syracuse NY. I'll say 98% of my heat comes from the woodstock keystone, and we're approaching 1/3 of a cord...
For your day job, a pair of Thorogoods would do you well. I work in a warehouse, and have worn a pair of the 8" moc toes for 4 years. I've...
I live near Syracuse, so same climate. I ran a load of just pine today @ 8am, and its still warm to the touch. It may not be the biggest stove,...
I've been running a keystone for 5 years, and its a great little stove. The only gripe I have is unlike the fireview, its a bit of a pain to pull...
I was running into similar issues before I lined my chimney. I have a 9x12 clay flue, which was clearly oversized for my keystone. On start up, I...
It's going to take a mental shift for most folks to adopt, but I'm happy with what Tesla has done. In less than a decade they changed the mindset...
If I count the "junk" I burned in October, I'm 1.3 cord into the stacks, about 1 if not. 95% of what I'm burning this year is sugar maple, but...
Do you need to remove the bypass door to change that gasket?
Wow, what great timing. I just ordered a gasket kit for my Keystone as well. I was thinking it would be a PITA to do it through the flue opening....
The house you're heating plays a huge roll. If its not well insulated, then typically you need to "oversize" which makes the stove room a hotspot....
When I bought my stove in 2013 it was Selkirk DSP. Have to believe its still the same.
