Been working on the stacks for over 3 years now. The stove install will be finished by the end of this month. Got plenty of photos of the install. Will post later on. If you don't mind youtube, here is a short walk through the stacks.
Think I am almost ready

Kudos to you good sir. I could be wrong but i have not noticed anybody else here that has invested that much time and effort unto getting wood before the stove is even hooked up. Getting three years ahead? You got a three year head start! You will get many compliments from the crowd. And a special invition to a certain particular club no doubt...

HE GETS AN INVITATION TO MY HOUSE TO STACK ANY WOOD HE WANTS. I WILL PROCESS IT, HE CAN STACK IT! THAT'S A GOOD DEAL. RIGHT? OHHHHH, OKAY, I WILL THROW IN ALL THE FREE BEER AND FOOD HE CAN DRINK AND EAT.
Looking good! Getting 3 years ahead is good stuff... makes life a whole lot easier
Nice work!
Got a guess as to how long ten cords would last you?
Woody Stover,
I honestly don't know. The last stove I owned was a Ashley Imperial that ate faster than I could feed it and constantly gave me creosote problems. I'm hoping that the new Fireview will do better. I will have 14' of SS DuraVent,double wall inside and a straight up and out set up.

Tim, you are to be congratulated for certain as you are one of a kind and a heck of a nice guy too. As for comparing the Fireview to the Ashley, it will amaze you. When we went from an Ashley to the Fireview, we not only cut our wood needs in half, but we no longer had to close off part of the house any more. In addition, we keep the house warmer! You will do fine!

Nice job. That's a lot of work right there.

Wow...thats amazing. Planning, forethought, self control.
Like storing tons of drug knowing you are gonna be an addict someday.
You mentioned all top btu woods as well. So you were selective. Was this from an owned woodlot or purchased wood or scrounged?
A source is a personal kind of question but just really curious.

100% scroundged! Just called a tree services and craigs list posts. Amazing what is out there. Had to take some not so good stuff now and then that wound up in the firepit, but overall OK.
