It was great to see the photos Dennis! Thanks so much. It's always interesting to actually see those faces of the folks you've constructed a mental image for over the years. No particular shocks here. 'Bout what I expected. Wish I had been there to see everyone and the shop.

I haven't been on here in months, but that's all over now.

I was wondering if anyone got any glimpse of the new stove. I sent my FV back last summer (it just wasn't big enough!) and am waiting (im)patiently for the new one. Ron opined that the centerline on the new stove exhause might be 29" or thereabouts. I am right up against it if that's true. I may not be able to use it without issues. I did find out that I don't need floor protection. The builder of our house told me there's 5" of concrete underneath the floor tiles, so I'll get back almost 2" of height for the new stove. If anyone got a look, please let me know. OR if anyone got info as to when it would be unveiled, please advise. Thanks, y'all.

Looking forward to a great winter with everyone.

You are welcome Texas Boy. Well, the new stove was there and burning wood. I did take some measurements but misplaced them. But we still have to realize the final is not out yet although that will probably be just adding the stone and finishing touches. From what I saw I will say that no doubt will be one stove that will really throw some serious heat. Estimates now are 80,000 btu. compare that with the Fireview 55,000 btu and you can see it will throw a lot of heat.


I've been wondering where you went to hide. I did discuss your situation with someone and it probably was with Ron. Hopefully you will keep in touch with him.

Hello Terry. Just an unofficial update for you. Our new stove isn't expected to come into production until possibly the first quarter of 2011. Because of this, it will not be eligible for the tax credit unfortunately. Also, the 'final' touches are still being worked on. I personally have not had much involvement in the research/development of this stove, and can only go on what I've heard from management. It will be a great stove nonetheless. There is a blog on our website you should check out. Hope this was helpful for you.
 
So old son, you own most of the cotton gin dunnage in West Texas and got nothing to burn it in? Get you a big ass Jotul F600 in there and heat that barn. 27 1/2" rear exit flue centerline.

Good to see ya back. FedEx me a chicken fry.

Well, yup, I do, but I'm planning to buy that new stove from Woodstock, if'n I kin afford it! I haven't dickered for any more wood, since I figure I cain't burn all I've landed now. I've seen some more, but I've let it go since I've got that 10 cords/month supply of good dry hardwood now.

How do y'want that chicken fry? Regular or with green chile sauce? (YOU know how t'make chicken fry! Why do y'want me to send some to you? You lived down here long enough to make it didn't you? Ever had it with green chile sauce? I don't want to talk about it--makes m'mouth waw-tuh!

Good t'be back. Looking forward to a fun winter. Hoping for a hard one down thissy! I've gotten so much done this summer that I wanted to get done, that I feel like I could take the winter off, but you know I can't. Just hope that new stove can be acquired before it gets too cold AND hopin' they extend that tax credit.

Y'all behave now, y'hear?

Newest update: we had a production meeting today. In regards to our new stove, production is expected to begin around February or March. Still no mention of expected price of the stove, nor an official name yet. I will try to continue updating as I can.
 
For the ad campaign I am thinking "Like A Rock".

Did great things for Chevy. Thanks for the update.
 
My pleasure. As for the name I'm rather partial to "THE NEW ENGLANDER" and I also like your slogan "LIKE A ROCK".
 
Thanks for the update. Maybe we all need to try to come up with names and then submit them to Woodstock. Like a Rock is not bad. I'm not so sure on the New Englander though as another company may not like that. Does sound pretty good though. It does seem to me that Hybrid should be in the name somehow to try to take advantage of that buzz word.
 
Not a bad idea at all dennis. "new englander" may need some tweaking for sure, sounded good when I first thought of it. I'm sure they might incorporate hybrid into the name somehow.

On another note, our new stainless steel combustors are coming along well. All back orders have been caught up, and all stoves in stock (from what I understand) will be shipped out with these new combustors.

Many new orders have been coming in steadily so this winter season looks like it will continue to be busy, not a bad thing at all!
 
I was thinking "Vista" for the huge window it's supposed to get. Think that one may be taken as well. :roll:

Magna View?
 
Naming that stove is going to be tough. I can usually come up with that stuff at the drop of a hat. But this one boggles the old mind.

Of course The Fire Cat has some appeal. But not the warm homey feeling that Woodstock needs to appeal to. And calling it the Woodstock Lebanon is a no-no.
 
Well, whatever you name it, the name should suggest its size and capacity if you're gonna woo them 'Laskan boys away from their BKKs.
 
Can't use Firecat because Applied Ceramics uses that one for the catalysts they supply to manufactures including Woodstock.

Why not just call it Big Sexy! :lol:
 
Well ya know, the Woodstock Volcano has a certain je ne sais quoi about it.
 
Of course, there is always Hybrid Woodstock; built like a rock. Somehow I doubt that BMF would go over to hot.
 
Name it the "Woodstock Morrissey"I think Tom has earned it. Then we could all call it Big Sexy Tom! :lol:
 
But.... But... But..... BMF could mean "BEAUTIFULLY MADE FURNACE" or "BEST MINI FURNANCE"
 
Nice Todd.

I've gone and done it now. I started a new thread for naming the stove.

Now how could you do better for a name than the Woodstock "TEXAS"?

Has all the right conotations as to bein' BIG (like us), will have all th' honest good looks (like ALL us Texans!), can heat "all outside" if'n y'take a'mind to (how'm I doin'?), reliability (again like us Texans!), friendly to use (we're all friendly IF we're native Texans!) and will take care of you in the worst weather (we call it Texas hospitality!!). A PROUD stove that everyone can be "proud of"--big enough for even us Texans. You could even go a step farther and call it "The West Texas" or "The Texas Giant", but for a name that says it all with typical Texas understated eloquence, the "TEXAS" would cover it, plumb good.

After all New England is really up there in far northeast Texas (if you've ever seen that map of the US with a huge Texas and all the other states around along the edge)! It's supposed to be funny, but lot's of folks down thissy subconsicously think in those terms, without meanin' to! We include all y'all all as honarary Texans (or is that "ornery" Texans, like the rest of us?) by default unless'n y'prove y'ain't friendly. Like we say, You're a friend, 'til y'prove y'ain't!"

I've done gone and said my piece! Hope all your doggies gits in th' right corral.

Dennis, Where would you EVER get an idea like that??? :)

I think we might be doing better. Three weeks ago tonight Lynda fell backwards headfirst down the basement stairs. Nothing broken, which is a miracle all its own, but all kinds of structural damage. She's pretty well out of commission since. Bruised her kidney pretty severely, many hairline fractures, ligament and tendon damage, rib damage, both feet, one shoulder, back and neck really bad, not to mentions 10 sq. inches of skin she scraped off and the huge bruises. If the stairs had not been carpeted, she would not have survived it. Other than that, not much going on.

We're in season transition mode. Nights getting cooler. Grass slowing down, etc. We have no stove, so I'm hoping for a mild winter this year.
