Exhaust on the stove looks like the stack on one of my turbocharged diesel farm tractors when I'm busting it's nuts.... Like to keep the soot under control...
I bet they are. YT for me is 99% entertainment and 1% knowledge because at 71, I've done most of the things I see on there that pertain to what I do and I've had my share of screw ups but I never recorded them for everyone to see... Some of the vids on YT are just so bad, it's beyond comprehension. One thing I like to do is observe the surroundings in a video or in a post someone makes (on here as well). Amazing what a camera records if you look closely. One of my renters is a single gal with a kid and she's in her early 30's and does the selfie thing (that I don't understand at all) but she sent a nude selfie to some guy I know and he showed it to me so I know what she looks like nekkid and it ain't bad but I'll never tell.... Always good to have your nude picture floating around I guess. The younger set today have weird ideas about stuff.
I didn’t. Some falls off as it burns but I haven’t attempted removing any yet. It will take a lot of fires to reduce that to ash.
Was burning stumps yesterday. Mostly Black Birch and Red Oak. Gonna take a while. But persistence pays off. Stacked some pine to use to fuel the fire….
