I don't think you would want to powerwash in nj this time of year anyways. Full strenght spray/soak, go watch a couple of episodes of This Old House and then powerwash on a warm, spring day....

+1 on greased lightning. Spray, let soak, powerwash......gone......

Wish I could do that this soon, I have at least 2-3 weeks minimum left.....grrrr Sounds like you have the right plan. Scrape and oil the inside, I like to shop vac too, gets all the little corners. Do not forget about a properly measured treatment of the 'purple stuff' aka rust inhibitor...

+1 Ain't that the truth! 24 hour burns are common with this mixture in my furnace.

Welcome Michael. I have a Freedom owf, 2 seasons now, and have nothing but good words for it. I like it because you have the option of burning coal and since we are in the heart of coal country, it is a nice option. Feel free to pm me if you have any specific questions. I do not sell them...

On aprox. 84 acres. Was a chicken farm up until 1960. Currently use about 6 acres for feed corn for the deer and turkey, keeps the JD and Farmall greased up. About 4 acres of christmas trees, 50% have gotten way too big, probably going to end up firewood in the near future. Now days, just...

If it don't fit through the door then I continue to cut it with the saw. Split wood is for those pretty, polished indoor stoves. Burn the rounds!:chainsaw:

Worthy of some rep. Nice link.:clap:

Who want to go in with me on renting an 18 wheeler? ' Somebody on here better hop on that deal. Nice find ktm.

I have thought about how to do ribs in my owb. By building a fire with some quality wood (apple etc) in the ash box below the shaker grates, fabricating a rack to be placed in the firebox, you could smoke a half case in 3-4 hours. No need to use the blower, just keep the ash door open a couple...

I have supplemented my wood burning with coal this season. I purchased 5 ton of bit and cut my wood consumption by 50%. Good points: Cheaper than wood by weight/btu (dont give me that free speech either folks), easier to feed, burns hotter for longer. Bad points: Dirty, dusty, 2X more...

Could be. I tend not to ask too many questions regarding taxes. I just supply my signature and check to pay his fee. Besides, $500 really isn't much of a deduction these days. Would prefer it as cash so I can buy some logs....:greenchainsaw:

Check with YOUR cpa for YOUR specific scenerio. My cpa asked for any changes in 2006, I installed an owb, he gave me the credit. I am not a cpa and suggest you get one. Is it wrong? That's why he makes the big bucks and has professional liability/E&O insurance. I just pay taxes. I thought...

$500. Used it last year. Check with your CPA for your state specific rules. http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=154657,00.html

Now that would be a pretty sight. Filling the box with coon carcuses....yuck. Possibly offer a service to your local 'Tony Montana'. Nark or 'take care of the problem' disposal. Whole or in ez to burn 6 pieces. You can charge a premium to billet the problem. The fatter the better. You...

I have something similar right now. Gas powered, pull start. Looking to step up, a few more bells and whistles. Key start is a must. Good link though, thanks.

The purpose for the generator is to run the house, which included the owb, in times when the power goes out. I have the secondary box installed, ready to go. My thread was more to get an opinion of Yanmar products. Compared to a gas model that I already have, diesel runs longer, quieter and...

I hope its ok to post this here. Lots of knowledgable contributers on this forum so I thought it was worth a shot. I have the opportunity to buy a Yanmar key start diesel for a very good price. Only used a couple of hours. I know they make engines for John Deere tractors but not familiar...

M-F 700am 10+/- minutes to load. 530pm 5 minutes to check the fire. 900ishpm 10+/- minutes fill er up. Sat or Sun 10 minutes to clean out ashes. Now if I could get my wife to help out on occasion......:rock:

Copper inside? Have you seen how much copper is these days? Go with pex once inside. You can probably borrow a crimper and only need a couple of copper 90's, A LOT cheaper than the old penny metal. The pex in my basement keeps it nice and warm too. Copper is almost non-existant in new home...
