I am looking for some opinions on the efficiency of a GARN 3200... 80%? Less, more? Also, any opinions on the best moisture content level for the...
A friend had loaned me his one-handed climbing saw. I was trying it out just finishing up some brush from a tree I had fallen. It was dark, and I was...
They are 24" pieces, so stacking two deep on pallets doesn't seem as though it would affect drying too much, especially in a big, open, windy...
Well here is what I have so far: What I am using now is a mix of good hardwoods... ash, maple, some oak, a little paper birch... it's tough to...
The KD moisture content has varied but 10% is a safe estimate.
Be careful with your chainsaw folks, especially when using a one-handed arborist saw. Luckily I had no structural damage. Four days later I am back...
I am looking for solid resources that compare BTU outputs of kiln dried hardwoods vs. seasoned. Obviously, moisture content and species play a large...
I haven't tried Woodmans yet. It's hard to figure out when to pull the plug on the Dealer and stop doing business. Everything starts out just fine,...
I bought a used Intrepid II four months ago. I've been working on it, replacing bad parts, painting etc. since. At first I tried dealing with a local...
Backyard fire pit I have considered, but if I am going to have a fire pit in my backyard I want to burn scrap wood etc. I am not sure if I feel like...
I have and old Scandia woodstove I have uninstalled from the house I just bought. It's in decent shape, but it is a Scandia. I've tried listing it on...

I hear you. I am basically talking it out. I think the piece you posted will probably be the way to go. I will probably adapt it, cutting down it's...
Well, it wouldn't float around up there. I wouldn't plan on running the 8" up through it, just into the bottom of it with that trim piece. Just an...
Does anyone think this piece would work? (Warning, it is a PDF so it will take a minute to open)....
I think it makes sense... The old connection was an 8" single-wall pipe stuck into the opening pictured, accept there was a custom (retro/homemade)...
There used to be an older Scandia woodstove connected to it that looked like it had been run there for years (I just bought the house). There is no...
My local hearth store has been hopelessly unhelpful on this one. Pictured below is where my chimney enters above my hearth. The interior of the...
Thank you. I had been been to Blackswan, but didn't see the fireback clamp available. I am going to try calling them soon. Anyone else have input?
I recently bought an Intrepid II 1303. It's in decent shape, but does need some work. I've already found a ton of great info in these forums (thank...
