It was a good winter to clean up around the wood yard. Burned 2 ibc totes of chunklies, about a 1/2 cord of pretty punky stuff, all of my lumber...
I always change the oil in a small engine after an hour or less of runtime on a new engine and then again at about 8 hours. You won’t believe how...
If you get them at the right moisture level you could probably roll them into miniature logs!:rofl: :lol:
Not a problem, all in good fun. Just wonder how many piles of cow turds we might start seeing in hoarders yards now. With dedication like buzzsaw...

After re-reading my previous post, I hope I didn’t come across as a smart a$$ or know it all. I do experiment some with the NC30 as well. Has...
This whole thread has been an interesting read, but way too technical for my taste. I’ve been burning in wood stoves for over 30 years now. Have...

Glad to hear it is working well. I’m hoping before next burning season I can do the same. I have 6” straight out the roof about 18’ total. I don’t...
The hammer I have will drill through 12” of concrete in about 30 seconds. It is rated for a 1-9/16 SDS max bit or a 5” coring bit. 3/4”x 18” is...
My wall is poured concrete. I will do basically the same as you did to cut the hole. I have a big rotary hammer/demolition hammer. Will drill 3/4...

I use the wife’s foaming glass cleaner that she uses to clean the countertops and mirrors and windows. I spray a good coat on. Let it foam up and...
