Was gonna say if you post in a thread titled "You know your a wood burner if______" on August 1st!

 

[BrotherBart]

For sure. The thread is usually dead and gone by January.

I think last Winter got our attention.

When you spend $40k on a truck, trailer, saws, splitter, stove, ect...to save $1k a year on heating oil. Then again, it's a hobby with a payback and real assets at the end of the day. Better than my beer drinking !!

anyone know what the longest thread here was and what it was about?

you know your a real wood burner if you show up to a stove shop and while waiting for the dealer, a total stranger starts asking questions about a stove and chimney setup, you answer every question and the next thing the stranger asks is how long does it take to order the material and when can they be scheduled for the install, you simply reply, I'm sorry I don't work here, this is my hobby.

The above post was a very awkward moment for the stranger and dealer, It made me realize I might have a wood burning problem, lol

I had that happen at the local mower shop, went in looking for a used generator, they had a non generating one, I told the owner what was likely wrong with it, he tried to hire me!

I don't remember how long it ran or the number of posts, but it was about a member's dog.

... your chimney sweep says he's never seen as much firewood in his life, as what you have stacked in the back yard, and you still feel like you're behind.

Three years after renovating an old house, the electric baseboard heaters are still in the garage.

You stack your pine out front to bait your neighbors into A " You can't burn that..." debate

 

[fireview2788]

You refer to stacks of firewood as "friends."
