We sure have been quiet lately... I'm about to puncture the silence with screams of aggravation. Life, being what it is, has set several delays in my way...
Hi Rae, Yeah I had problems when I first hooked up my stove. I couldn't get the pipe together either. I wound up putting the crimped end up. That was wrong...
Thanks for the luck and sympathy! LOL! I STILL can't get the piece of stovepipe to budge on the slip pipe to get it back off or get it to behave like it's...
Just in case anyone is curious, I finally took a break from cursing the pipe, made a fresh pot of tea and went back to it later. I sprayed the jammed section...
Who knows... maybe someone is actually reading it this time! The Sedore needs a couple inches of ash in the bottom to operate properly. To start out with...
raven, sand, wood ash, fire brick, etc. are used to insulate the metal fire box from damage by the fire. if you build your fire on sand and keep hot coals...
Thanks, Bob! I appreciate that you took the time to reply. Since no one has said anything to the contrary, I think I'll go out back and find a bag of sand....
Sorry, I haven't been on-line for a few days, but I will give you my experience. When I clean the Sedore out, I clean most of the ash and then restart my ...
Although a bed of ash's is desirable, the stove can still be started without. It usually takes longer to light but it will light. It doesn't take long to...
I finally fired my little beast up for the first time last night! I know this is a learning experience... luckily I'm a quick study in most things. LOL!...
Rae ... Most of us "first timers" just cannot resist, lifting the lid, and taking a look. What I have found to work 1. close the draft completely 2. slowly...
Yes, Mac! That was a lot of help and I really appreciate your comments tremendously. It's reassuring to get feedback from experienced users and even the same...
Thanks, Bruce! I did decide to "just go for it" and it did end up okay after things got going. You are right in that it doesn't take long to get a good ash...
The goal with stoves has been for complete combustion, especially to get the most intense heat from the char, thus many stoves have grates and ash trays. Just...
That's a pretty loaded question. Ask ten people and you'll get ten different answers. Okay so on this quiet list, maybe just one or two. LOL! You'll find a...
Find someone in your area who owns a Sedore and ask them what they think of their stove. Myself, like most on this forum, think the Sedore is the best stove...
11/26/2008 I'm posting this notice for all Sedore customers. I used a new type of stove gasket adhesive, and paint on several Sedore's that were purchased this...
hi guys and gals I was just wondering how Y'all feel about outdoor wood boilers? I recently bought and installed one it is working better than i ever thought...
Many of the outdoor wood boilers are not designed to burn cleanly, and tend to produce a lot of smoke. This has caused them to be banned in some towns...along...
Well, even if we don't agree over here, we'll be a lot more polite and civilized about it! LOL!!! I have a few burn marks on my back from "over there" too....
Well I believe that some towns and cities have banned them because of the people who install and use them (any wood burner) either dont know how to or dont...
Well im sure it will not be as clean or efficent as some of the new catalic stoves. It does smoke sometimes but I dont think its any more smoke than my...
I just thought I'd start sharing some of the odds and ends that have been passing through my mind as I develop a relationship with my new fire breathing "pet"....
Hi Bruce, from down here in the Banana Belt of Mn.. Ran my 3000 wide open all last season, with no problem of over heating and with a good bed of coals in the...
