Okay, Bart, looks like you're gonna have to rename this the "Top 300 Guidelines for Religious Woodburners" :lol:

Bluefrier is referring to putting it in the space around the liner hole in contact with the liner. He learned that one the smelly smokey way. Some old fool warned him, as best I remember. :lol:

Honor thy liner.
Thy combustially challenged spouse who, being naughty in my sight, shall be cast
from thy hearth lest he tempt thy sainted inferno into sin with sogged offerings.
Thou shalt not suffer a wood spider to live.

Thanks, Eileen, but what is the significance of NS vis a vis woodburning, stoves, etc.?

Most EPA stoves are designed that the primary air washes across the glass (keeping the window clean) then across the fuel and then up to the reburner, then out the stack. It kind of creates an air flow from front to back before it goes to the top. N/S creates more "air channels" for the front to back airflow than E/W stacked wood does. So basically, you can change the burn characteristics of your stove by loading N/S vs. E/W
(hope that makes sense)

Secondary air is a fixed setting. I suspect that draft also plays a part on the amount of air that makes its way through the tubes. I think that natural convection will simply carry it up and around the baffle and then be exhausted.

Like you would see on a Kubota or a John Deere tractor. Very handy for lots of reasons including hauling logs or split wood. I hope to some day own a SCUT (sub compact utility tractor) with a FEL.

Terry, my woodpile was at 24 cords last fall. BeGreen is right because at one point I remember Eric having over 40 cords.
If you ever read any of the old threads you would find the guys giving me a rough time because of my wife doing a lot of work. She does handle all of the ashes (I don't remember the last time I emptied ashes) and she brings in wood for the night and enough for the next fire. She used to help me a lot when cutting wood but she can't do that any more. She also does not stack because she can't stack wood so it looks decent! Anyway, knowing how guys are, they liked to razz me about it all. The wife even gets a kick out of it. It's all in good fun.
Thou shalt not razz Dennis's wife about being a studious wood burner, but Dennis is fair game. :lol:

Thou shalt not buy into the half truths of various wood sellers that the wood they split last week is seasoned and ready to burn now
Thou shalt purchase thy wood supply at least one year in advance to negate the affects of my first thou shalt

Whoa! Definitely a cool tractor and I'm pretty sure I'd cotton mighty fine to that house, too! I'd like to see more of this spread. I need to trade in a couple o' m'horses for one o' them tractor thangs.
Thou shalt not covet Rick's tractor . . . too late, done been coveted!!
