@Burnin Since 1991 Wow yeah that’s tough! This stove burns long and hot NS. Takes off faster too than EW. My stove is 2.4 cu ft.

I could load up to 20” logs EW but the way it stacks I can fit more volume of wood NS
Yes, I cut a bunch of shorties to burn n/s. The best part is the wood not rolling off and landing against the glass. And you can see a better fire. Mine has a pretty small box. Without getting out of the recliner... I'd guess-timate 1.4 c/f

A little new to me basement stove prep work today. Checked gaskets with dollar bill, lubed bypass and hinges with copper anti-seize, installed bypass retainers and cat, vacuumed whatever little ash was in the stove and cat chamber.

I can fire it with the temps we have had lately but I’m still waiting to hear from a sheetmetal shop on my new chimney chase cap. Been going on over a week now. I dislike the need to deal with subcontractors for reasons like that and if I had a brake and the material I can bend it myself but this time I gotta be patient…..😩
