    DYI grilling planks

    No problem with the hijack. You're already done, and I'm jealous. I'm guessing the wood you used was already seasoned?

    Firewood deal for Hudson Valley Area members.

    Are you buying any? It would be interesting to know if the deal is as good as it sounds.

    Wet weather and wood stacks

    This is a trick question, Dennis. The answer is "it cannot." You've sent them the link to Hearth, I'm guessing?

    DYI grilling planks

    No table saw either, and using a chainsaw doesn't seem appealing due to getting bar/chain oil on the wood potentially. I did try my miter saw,...

    DYI grilling planks

    Most planks I see look like they're cut this way (long-ways), so I bet there is something to that. Hatchet sounds challenging, but I'll noodle...

    DYI grilling planks

    I'm going to try that. I've also been drying these planks in the wood stove room. Probably too much drying too fast.

    How's your garden doing thread.

    Not great here. All peppers (bell, banana, jalapeno) are a fail so far except for banana peppers which are so-so. Cucumbers are doing OK, but...
