I haven't bent my 60" Logrite cant hook. Spendy, but worth it.

SW MN outside of Windom...NE wind staked it up against the garage very well. Garage door was held down so I had to hand shovel. Good thing we don't get a NE wind often here.

Not to hijack the thread, but I just did a quick search on the Fiskars site...this looks pretty nice, 36" 8 lb http://www2.fiskars.com/Products/Gardening-and-Yard-Care/Axes-and-Mauls/IsoCore-8-lb-Maul-36

Splitting a few chunks while listening to the corn stalk leaves rustle in the wind here in SW MN...harvest will commence shortly. 80 degrees and a new batch of flies, but still fun.

A picture (the trailer) of the red maple tree I harvested green last week.

I've had the i3100 for two years, and my experience is very similar to yours, about four cords of ash/mulberry/locust/old crappy dry starter stuff. Used about 400 gallons of LP. I recommend Regency as well, but David will need to see what is available close to him. From what I've read on the...

Toro Garden Tractor...blew the 16 single Kohler Courage and replaced it with a 23 HP Kaw twin

I couldn't even make it thru the obnoxious commercial...thank goodness my kids are grown up!

Sorry to hear about your problems. My daughter had a napoleon installed in her house, two story in a corner. The installers were qualified (they did mine too), and argued that the stack was tall enough. But they had enough down draft problems - like you - that that didn't want to use it. So...

Gardus...I got this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0010H5JXA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Comes with six three foot rods. I ordered an additional two. Works well, just cut the lines to fit your chimney size as directed.

I haven't tried Bio Bricks but I did buy a few Gren Heat bricks last spring. I find they work very well. This summer they were on sale for I think $4 a bundle of 20 bricks at Menards, totaling 38 lbs per bundle. From what I remember based on the cost of propane around here and efficiency of...

My stacks from the roof. Soybeans are starting to turn.

All bought. Decorators of course, non-functional, ranging in price from $150 to $450 each. They still hang on my living room wall. Til the wife makes me take'em down. Sorry, I don't mean to derail this thread. Have a good weekend all

Yes...my son next to me in the back was holding Excalibur. My daughters were holding Sting and Glamdring from LOTR. I was holding the sword of the apocalypse riders. The good old days...now they are all grown up and gone.

Black walnut did make a nice backdrop for my family's 2003 Christmas picture (not your average kids in front of the Christmas tree...). Burned a grove full that year. Seriously, if you know a local craftsman who also mills and processes lumber, you may be in luck. But I'm thinking most...

Same here, in Windom MN a few hours south of you. Will be splitting after work tonight, down to my last few cords. Will probably burn thru Fri-Sat. Heating season from hell indeed

Great! I hope the price doesn't go up if demand increases. Then again, folks probably won't buy them if they get more expensive. But they are bug-free, compact, and convenient. Looks like lows in the 30s all week here in SW Minnesota. Wife asked me last night if I was running the splitter...

For fun I picked up a few bundles (20 bricks totaling 38 lbs @ $4.99 per bundle) of GREN pressed sawdust bricks. They actually burned pretty well in my Regency i3100 insert. I plan on buying a few dozen more bundles in the off season for backup - maybe I can get a lower price in bulk (Menard's...

I need to replace some broken bricks in my Regency i3100 insert. I'm a bit confused, should I buy soft insulating firebrick (which supposedly absorb little heat) or the hard ones (structural?)? Or doesn't a fireplace "care" which type is used?
