Im Matt and Im still pretty new to wood burning even though i grew up doing it just now thanks to all you fine folks Im learning the right way to do it. I enjoy beekeeping, collecting wood cutting wood and burning wood. I hate stacking wood but that has to be done.

 

Welcome Bob. Good to have you with us here. What do you burn in? What do you usually burn? Wood stove? Pellet stove? Insert?

I am jealous Will. JEALOUS I SAY!

 

Hi, I'm Dave from beautiful Mount Desert Island, Maine. I work as a molecular biologist studying neurodegenerative disease like ALS and SMARD1.

I have been accused of being an unapologetic purist, I like my coffee black, my food whole, and my life simple.
I believe;
the simplest solution is usually the best
in fact over fiction
in function over form
in friendship over friction
in not taking myself, life or religion too seriously

In addition to cord wood hoarding and wood heat, I enjoy being addicted to hiking with my dogs and air-cooled BMW motorcycles.

 

Welcome Dave. Welcome. That sounds like some very sound belief and I like it. I have seen some beautiful BMW motorcycles. Older, and especially the newer ones.

 

Hi all, finally found this site, just another refuge from a couple other areas. Blades on the others so here it just Chris. I will get around to some of the background stuff later. Bye the way I am a filer and doesn't mean paper.

 

It's the perfect job for me been there 13 yrs.

 

Welcome chris. Good to have you. What do you burn in?

 

Thanks Gasifier, to answer question, main floor NC30, basement hotblast, Plus I have a old PDVC25 pellet burner I will be putting in basement, then pull the hot blast out. Too much hassel with furnace, and the down draft in the flue to get it started, additionally I can never trust it's auto damper- more like auto overfire. Currently I have around 40 cord CSS puts me at minimum 3 years ahead. Bad case of CAD and FAD, 5 Dolmars,1DolMak,1 Jonserd. 30 ton splitter, I am in the SE corner of WI. Just me and my 2 Girls ( Springer Spaniels) 2ksqft ranch.

 

Cool. Sounds like a nice setup you have there chris. 40 cord! Holy chit. That is a lot of wood. Got pics?

 

Uh, yeah.
This is mandatory.

 

Ahhh, the old Tin Bill Cruiser ...... Always was going to get one of those from Baileys...
