Hello Chris, I am Kimberly, glad you joined. It is not whore, it is hoarder; sounds similar but completely different.
I had an old unused wedge laying around in a tool box so I had a friend weld it up upside down and I attached it to an old block of oak. Between that and my Fireside friend I should be set for making kindling.
Easy Man! There's some "BIG" boy's and Ladies here! Nice to have ya Chris and Welcome!!! I see your an Asplundh tree man, "awesome" My neighbor is also. What steel are ya burning?
Yes, and safer. When I first bought the Fireside Friend it was very sharp. At some point I was making thin strips of kindling out of scraps of 2"x4". One of them must have started falling over just as I was swinging the Estwing and I must have went to grab it with my left hand. It happened so fast I'm still not sure how I did it, but I needed 8 stitches on my left index finger:
Yeeeooooww! I'm afraid to like this post, but I did as a reminder to all of us to be careful. Things can happen even as we are focused on a task. Hope you are feeling better in general, Brian.
My 7 y/o daughter graduated from dead blow hammer & me holding the hatchet to just the hatchet alone. Similar to the vids but swung by a kid and my hand holds the smaller pieces. She is good. I find the straight grained pine shorties, like <10" stuff. Chunk it up for her and let her go with plenty of supervision. The kid is a natural. She isn't capable of swinging a small sledge yet, so it takes her several wacks sometimes but she swings with confidence. Yes, I have all my fingers.
Summers heat 2400 made by englander i think, got it at lowes. They say its a smart stove because it has an automatic air control, works great and i highly recomend it at only $900. It gets the whole house over 70 and the living room up over 80 which is too hot so i have to really tone it down. I think its snhc30 model number
Nice, I've seen the stove. I noticed your a NH dweller, I have family "very close" to you in Hudson and Nashua. I love that state! There are a few folks on here from NH, "Great" folks!!! Not that everyone on here isn't
How long have you had that stove ? Maybe you can help Kimberly out with the automatic air control on her new Summers heat smart stove
Hi Kimberly, Someone said you might have a A question about the auto air control. I have summers heat 2400 and i love it. I have had mine for a few months now, it replaced an old VC Defiant, huge difference.
