Behold the mite of the NC30. Loaded it up with black locust tonight and in no time the secondaries were going. Stove top at 550, air closed 80%. Love this stove. The last picture was after the air was shutdown completely and the glass got a bit dirty and I had some weird "Apparition". My son called me and says, Pop there is a face on the stove.

That was actually the first season with the stove. That is the kinda crap that happens with six month dropped and split red oak. The lignin in the stuff just explodes. That blast went on for twenty five hair raising minutes. I don't do that kind of stuff anymore. Like everybody else I had to play the first year.

Now just a nice fire in the stove. No thermonuclear stuff anymore.

30 seconds? Is this normal running@ 600*? I certainly can't do that
