Because my wood is too big and my box is too small! Suffering from SFS (small firebox syndrome) I came up with this hair brained idea today. Seems to work pretty decent but it could use a tweak or 2.
I made it so I can easily cut down my longer pieces to 12" so I can load N/S. It's that or buy another new stove which really isn't in the budget right now. The only thing I need to redo is make it so there's 12.5"-13" of wood sticking out to give me some clearance while cutting. I made it right at 12" which nets me about 11.5" pieces. Might as well get every .25" or .50" I can.
