Still working perfectly. Lots of heat, long burns, beautiful, no cracks, etc. Etc. Etc.

Just thought you'd all want to know.
 
Worst case of soapstone cat envy I have ever seen. :lol:
 
How about a picture of this so called perfect stove?
 
This thread is in no way intended as a jab at any of you who might have bought unsightly, faddish stoves which are now giving you problems.

I said I bought a PE Spectrum Classic, not a new digital camera.

But seriously, I do not have a digital camera.

Or a cell phone.

Those two things are fads too.
 
Does the spectrum classic have that fancy sheet metal cladding? Did you get a red one? Being bigg redd and all.
 
You have two or three seasons to give you time to complete a welding course at the local community college. :coolsmirk:

LOL - ouch! lol
I was hoping duct tape would do in a pinch.

Mentioned the cracking issue to my dealer and he got on his horse fast, saying they've never had one come back yet .....
His claim is if you run single wall pipe with a guage, and keep it in the sweet zone, you're not going to have issues. Fingers crossed - Time will tell.

You insiders- Ugh! :bug: Where is the love for the "newbies"?


Soapstone stoves are an unsightly fad

Jotuls have a terrible cost/performance ratio

Non-Stihl chainsaws suck

Blaze Kings are the shizzz

Any wood that takes two years to "season" sucks

The word "season" sucks

Paying full retail for firewood sucks

At the intersection of cost/performance/aesthetics nothing beats a PE

Pine causes chimney fires (in YOUR chimney)

1/2 ton trucks suck

Free will is nothing more than a very convincing illusion

Most people would rather have a good excuse than a solid achievement

Learn how to file your chains for the love of God

"Worth" can only be determined by you

No amount of ducting, fans, or circulation will get that back bedroom the same temp as the stove room so quit trying

The 041 is the greatest firewood saw ever built

BLTs are the best sandwiches

That new splitter will never pay for itself - quit being so Lazy

Fiskars



There. You are now a Bigg_Redd insider.
 
Cameras are a fad ???

Think I'll hang outside for now.
 
I think Redd is still driving his horse and buggy, laughing at all of us who have succumbed to the fad of the automobile.
