    What kind of burn times do you think it will get?

    There's no way I'd let Chazsbetterhalf start a fire today, but it's nice to see yours.

    It was only 40 degrees this morning and the house was at 60 and since this stove is in the basement I seized the moment to start breaking it in. I have 2 more break in fires to go

    Last break in fire for the new stove. Looks like secondaries start to ignite at around 300 degrees. 8B6B21D3-150F-4BA2-A9FB-05EA27C8B6DD.jpeg

    We may be there soon.
    Temps are supposed to get down a bit.
    :banana::dancer:

    Guess I should round up some Box Elder for the stove.

    I think the draft is going to just about perfect on this stove. It is 60 degrees outside right now I have the control set all the way to low and the stove is crusing at 450 degrees no visible smoke out side. I just hope the Missuss stays out for a few more hours. Because the house is roasting right now with all the doors and windows open. Hopefully the burn today will finish off the new stove smell 0446F561-3738-47EC-B7E2-35CC4CB3E63E.jpeg
