Greetings from Carroll County Ohio! My name is Frank ans I am excited to be on this forum. I was handed a "Hoarders Club" business card by one of my buddy's at church on Sunday. It seems that Ron (Locust Post) has been a member for some time, and he knows that I burn wood to heat my house. Although I do not really look at wood cutting has a hobby, and my son's look at it as a chore, I really do enjoy learning more about it. I truly look forward to further discussions on the forum. I currently heat with a Taylor T750 OWB. I bought it new in 2006. It does the job although not very efficient. I am starting to look at ways to modify it to burn better with less smoke. Currently researching firebrick options. I am certainly open to suggestions from you boys that have experience. I also own the following saws. Echo Cs-670 x2 Echo Cs-600p Echo Cs-520 I'm an Echo guy!
Hi Frank! Welcome to FHC. I can't help you with the OWB, and please post some pics of your saws... just don't mind the drool.
Welcome BigFrank! To FHC... There's a few Echo's roaming around here. We are a pretty diverse bunch of guys and gals. Also we like Around here.
Hi Big Frank, nice to have you here. It's nice to see a business card make it's way around, for me it's the first time Ive seen a result from it. Ron's a great guy and has a bunch of know how, he's well liked here. Jump in and ask questions, post pictures and share whatever you like. Great group of people here (except for Stinny ) only joking stinnster
Welcome aboard Frank. Glad to see the b-cards are getting put to use and actually accomplishing something. Good job LP! So Frank, in case LP didn't mention it, we love pics......saws, wood piles/stacks, hauling equipment. etc.
Welcome BigFrank! Ron told me all about you! You'll fit in nicely here, pull up a chair and enjoy, we're glad to have you!
Hi Frank - welcome to the club! Bunch of nice, knowledgeable folks here. I know I've learned a lot! I grew up stacking wood with my dad. I thought it was a chore at the time too, until I was the one paying the gas man! The next generation of wood burners right there!
Welcome bigfrank.....there is quite a few members from the buckeye.....myself included. I've made friends with a few. FHC is a good place to hangout
Hey Frank! Another member from Ohio. Glad LP told you about this place. It's been a great learning experience for me also.
Welcome to the forum Frank. Good to know the business cards work and it sounds like you do some hard work! With the OWB, most end up having to burn more wood than they used to but many still like them. It appears in the future they will be making them a bit more efficient and not so much smoke. You enjoy learning about wood and cutting so you might find this interesting.

Hope you enjoy.
Welcome to the family here. You will learn quite a bit from all the guys round here.. I learned quite a bit and I'm still learning..
