    Many (most) of us burn wood regardless of oil price. I just like the heat, regardless of cost. I like the exercise, I like the saws, I like putting the dead trees to good use ... yup I got it bad.

    Go with the stove deal.

    As to crack repair in cast, I have had good success TIG brazing with silicon bronze filler. I've done a couple deer shack stoves for people.

    Looks like the 30 worked out great for you Dave! Did it meet your expectations?
