Hi all, been lurking around on the forum since early in the year. I just wanted to introduce myself and say hi. I'm not doing things on as big a scale as any of you guys but have a keen interest in wood burning in my home. I've been mainly using the forum to learn more about chainsaws and firewood etc. I've found some of the threads really interesting and helpful. Keep it up

Yes I would leave it, especially if thats your house in it, would be easier to heat it sideways....

Not my house it's Trinity College in Dublin. I'd be doing pretty well if it was my house though.

Actually I don't have any experience burning coal, they banned the sale of real coal in Ireland and so all you can get now is smokeless coal which doesn't burn as well

Welcome to AS you'll find lots of stuff here to argue......I mean talk about!
Not everyone on here is a firewood conglomerate. Some of us just cut wood to heat our homes with and like being in the outdoors!
I'll take a Smithwicks please!

I'm pretty new here, too. Very cool place so far, and everyone has been really cool. You'll like it here.

Welcome to the madness! If you start buying chainsaws beware they are listed somewhere between pot an cocaine on the FBI's list of addictive substances. Or at least to some of us they probably are.

I like Smit's a lot myself and occasionally Jameson. Probably the McClanahan in my ancestory

Welcome to AS, the men and women here are....uh, well, ummm, anyway welcome! For those of us that reside in the southern US; it is time to break out the "good stuff". I know that you have been holding back the 3-year old oak, the locust that is hard as iron. Bring that stuff up close to the stove we are going to need it. Speaking of the "good stuff" you might also want to reach way back in the cabinet, past the store-bought stuff and get out the non-taxpaid cough medicine, just in case.

Thanks for all the welcomes Looking forward to hearing more from you all along the way
