If you split some of the cherry down to 3 - 5" it will dry faster, but expecting to burn it at peak heat in 6 months is not realistic. Yes it will burn, but at a lower heat output. If it's your only choice then ya got to do what you gotta do., but with the pine you have some options. I would look for some free ash in your area or even pay for a couple cords. You'll derive more heat and satisfaction from the stove with seasoned wood.
Do you think the Ideal Steel will work for me? If I go to big what priblems will I have? I know I dont want to go to small.
So far we only have beta tester reports. Based on them it should be fine. It is reported to run at a wide range of temps.
