My fireplace has just as many bricks as those Russian jobs, just no baffle to slow smoke or HEAT on it's way up the chimney. This company is listing its non-catalytic wood stoves that they think will meet the 75% efficiency. http://www.quadrafire.com/Tax_Credit/stimulus-tax-credit-stove.asp...

Based on this http://www.hpba.org/index.php?id=34 they are going to use a lower heating value to determine efficiency. My local stove shop showed me a letter from Jotul that said all of their stoves are expected to be 75% or higher and eligible for the tax credit with testing and documentation...

Tax Credit FAQ http://www.hpba.org/index.php?id=34 Highlights. Q: How does the language in this legislation differ from what was passed in October 2008? A: The new legislation 1) increases the tax credit from $300 to 30% of the total cost of a biomass-burning stove, 2) extends the...

Thanks for the pic of the wood, looks nice. I will have to come up with a project for it. I will hit the Milling section, you guys have convinced me to save a section.

Cut it up for firewood or save a length for the mill I would like to get eventually and use it for a woodworking project. If I save a length, should I protect the ends or leave them to encourage spalting? I'm not sure if it is paper birch, black or yellow used for woodworking so... Birch...

Bowtie, I have the older chain brake in PES+'s pictures in the thread above that kogafortwo needed and the same one you described. Because of the way people slice and dice up saw parts on ebay I was thinking I may need to gather parts. I wanted to see if I could put a new handle on an old...

search hints? Ahh man, I figure the information is out there. I can't find it. I gave up searching and posted. I didn't think this was a tough question. Must be 028 fatigue. There are 1000s of threads in this forum alone. I have read a lot. I have created a "028 - best of AS" word doc...

Anybody? thx.

Will the newer chain brake/ hand guard with the 2 cut outs swap with the older no cutouts guard and work with the older partial wrap chain brake? Thanks, mech

Maybe you already have a solid state ignition. In the attached pic "Old Coil", The kill switch wire ran under the flywheel with the other wire from the coil. The new coil has a spade connector that the kill switch attaches to. mech

If you are going to buy tools. Get a spark tester (see attached). I have 3 from when I wanted to compare each coil on my old Evinrude when running. This has been a great tool. If I only pulled and watched a grounded spark plug, I would have probably seen a spark and moved along. This showed...

I just installed an aftermarket coil/solid state ignition in my old 028wb. Equivalent to Stihl Part #0000 400 1300 I could always get it to run and idle, but wouldn't always rev. Sometimes feathering the throttle just right would get it to rev. Looking back, I think it was more heat...

long-winded and a double post. mech

I have an 028 WB. My new hobby is looking at pics of 028's trying to see if they would be a good matching parts saw, based on what I have read here. The chain brake handle with 2 openings and the vents on top and in front of the pull start tell me that yours is newer than mine and an...

First, This site has a remarkable amount of information. Thanks to those who make it go. I see people have already asked all the good questions about this saw. So here is my story. I have a 028 WB that my dad bought new for firewood/ homeowner use. All the castings appear to be date...
