Your buying wood, call the guy and tell him what you want, it would be no biggie for them to roll a 16" section of trunk onto the truck for you to use....
You can clean it yourself. It is easy. What I did the first year was to have the installer guy come and clean the chimney. I watched. He also checked the...
Yup buy the brush and DIY for free forever. buy the plastic brush not the steel wires. The steel will scratch the stainless and cause rusting. gggGary...
There's other things you can do probably if uou think about it but the best and easiest by far is for you to find a big chunk of a tree somewhere. Talk to the...
I had my first burning season with my Pacific Energy Summit Insert. The installer put in an insulated 6" stainless steel liner. He sent a card in the mail...
Matthew, would it work for you to place an ATV tire on a wood pallet to split? The tire would keep your log in place and probably help keep the axe from...
I'm trying to get away from digging a 2 foot hole, or anything that can be hard on the back. Right now I have nothing. I don't have elm, or a tree trunk, or...
Where are you? ... From: Bob Reite <br@...> Subject: Re: [woodheat] Getting warm out, quiet in here To: woodheat@yahoogroups.com Date: Sunday, April 28,...
Been a long heating season here. two fires a day the whole month of April and a few nights with midnight feedings. IMHO small fires are OK just keep the air...
Just making small fires now to take the chill off. I'll bet this is the way to clog the flue. I'm gonna have to make some hot ones to clean it out or...

I posted some pics on message #24529 put a stake in the ground w/a 10 ft string attached, draw a circle and begin, I filled the middle w/as many pallets as...
I use Kiss technique (Keep it simple stupid) - Use pallets on the ground - or on 4x4's - stack three wood split pieces or round wood across pallet - no fancy...
I think I'm going to do round firewood stacks this year for the first time. I stack about 5 - 6 cords. Usually I do rows on top of 2 x 4s on cinder blocks to...
Better to break a handle than your arms. When I was young and dumb I didn't give much thought to my body- I was indestructible. The motorcycle could not go...
He actually did more some years and 100 cords (mostly by hand - becuase a splitter was too slow) was his record. If I said 80 or 100 cords, people would...
Hi all I am bringing this tread back because I am going up to the cabin tomorrow and I am looking for ideas, things to try to see if I can help my smoke issue....
I have one of those Monster Mauls and yes, they are impossible to break and I personally found it not any harder to swing than a wood handled maul of the same...
From the son of a monster maul owner, a metal pipe welded to a metal wedge did not absorb any of the shock waves from hitting the wood and my father developed...
That all depends on what he's splitting. I used to cut and hand split 6-7 full cords for home use. Much of it was beech and all was cut to 24". I always...
I'm with Scott on this one, I had one of those 12 pound metal handle monsters, still do somewhere. My wife let me use the the 8 pound fiberglass handled...
They do not work nearly as well as a similarly weighted conventional maul head on a wood or fiberglass handle. If you used one a lot, you did a lot more work...
My dad has a Monster Maul that he got in the 70's or 80's. This is the heavy duty maul head welded directly to a thick walled heavy steel handle. I have used...
