What Is In Your Stove Right Now?

Luckily my wife doesn't work tomorrow (hospital). Kids are looking forward to it.
I don't mind shoveling (yet, this winter).
We'll see.

Early evening reload of a few pieces of cherry around 4pm. Have the oak and hickory staged for the incoming cold tonight through monday. Small amount of snow forecasted for my area but single digit temps, negative windchills.

From a few days ago but this thick chunk of buckthorn was was I threw in for my chihuahua while I left the house for 4 or so hours. View attachment 343735

Looks a lot like black locust.

The dragon is warming up with some Amazon paper, splitting slash, wood scraps and two maple splits I tossed on top once it got going. Hopefully burning hot for a few hrs cleans the glass up.

Only room for one dragon in this thread, pilgrim.

Although, yours is much prettier.
Carry on.

Lots of wind for the next three days, so far gusts have been about 40 mph; combined with 15F outside, the real feel is chilly 🥶

Getting some spruce going now and hoping to get the house back into the 70s after a day of working out in the cold.

I guess, to keep things clear, baby dragon and mama dragon.
Mama's an ugly ole biatch, with lots of battle scars.

Mine's from the late 70s.

Nightly reload with 2 mystery logs, 1 big maple, 1 small maple and one medium ash. If anyone wants to guess what the bark in the second picture is, feel free. It was heavy for its size so I’m guessing oak or some hickory variant.

Bark reminds me of dogwood.
But if it's big, that gets less likely.

Negative… it’s on fire now 🤣🤣🤣. I remember it being pretty straight, not stringy.

If it was very blonde, could possibly be sugar maple....heavy stuff. Bark can resemble that from midway and up.

Burning red oak with a split or two of cedar mixed in with each load. The stove did not seem to be warming up the house much untill about three hours in the temps inside started to rise. I thought I had it burning hot. Not sure what was going on.. house has been toasty since around noon tho.

 

[all night moe]

Been feeding the ole girl a steady diet of red and white oak. Supposed to get pretty cold for the next couple of days.
I'll be out tomorrow gathering a truck load of wood.

It was lighter; but it’s probably 3-4 yrs old so it’s really dirty. Good guess though, there’s been a lot of maple mix in (red and silver).

Night time load of red oak is in, stove is cruising now.

Some red oak for the night shift

Hello from North Arkansas, my wood burning friends. Down to 16 tonight hot as hell in the house right now like 81f .. Oops. I goofed up all the timing today but sometime tonight or early tomorrow morning there will be more red oak and hickory in the stove. I hope everyone is doing well.

 

[Gearhead660]

Got the Super and T2 loaded with elm for the night. Gonna be a cold one here in the Midwest. Stay warm out there.

 

[thewoodlands]

It's 19.4 out tonight, the basement temp is starting out at 75 with the temps up here 69 & 68. The wood stove has six splits of beech and one of ash in it for the overnight load.

 

[MRD1985]

Tossed in some cherry with a little is (half load) around dinner time to set me up for tonight. This is All oak plus 1 big chunk of cherry on bottom left. Snow moving in tonight with single digit temps tomorrow night with wind chills around -10. Won’t be running the stove sadly on one of the coldest nights of the year with me being at work tomorrow night 😕

 

[MEngineer24]

Woke up to some snow on the ground, 25F temp with NW winds. More cold on the way, morning reload of red oak and a few hickory splits.
