Not to mention the grass dries quicker too when harvested.
in the summer down here we can have no rains for weeks... sun, sun and more sun... and still the humidity will be 96% or higher. sometimes it just does not matter how many yrs one has lived down here... even a full on acclimation is not enuff.

For diesels yes. I have a 6.4 gas motor in my ram so I don't have to plug it in but I might. I think you just cope. It's why you all southerners laugh at us when it is 55 and we are in shorts and a t shirt. Coming out of winter that feels like were near the equator! Me personally I am a huge fan of high temps. If I didn't have family to take care of I would reside in Texas or Oklahoma.
I don't know about RP. Have to dig into that one!

You gonna get the 359 out and cut a few sticks up, kinda like a polar bear plunge sort of a thing

I have an ice chain for the 288. If I have to move the spear house it's easier late in the season to use the saw and chisel vs the auger and chisel. Been lucky this year that the second spot I put it on has never slowed down. Been there for over a month.
I got a couple new toys I am itching to try but I ain't going out in this crap. It can wait until it is atleast 20 out.
I do the same at the start of each heating season. Sometimes those 'uglies' carry me through almost a month of heating.
I bet a nice hot fish dinner fresh caught from under the ice after a day on the ice is pretty tasty!
do you cook out on the ice when fishing? or bring something w/you to warm up. like on a small stove or ice fishing house heater?
D ick Proenneke lots of info, sites, urls, links, vids, books and related AK wilderness stuff. here's an intro to one of the vids. good stuff. I usually watch a dvd once. rarely twice. I have watched my DP vids... dozens and dozens of times. never gets boring... he can build his cabin in the vid a thousand times... and I would enjoy seeing it again for the 1,001 th time.! for sure...

Don't think so.I'm guessing it would dry just as fast with more humidity and it being 10degrees warmer throughout the house

My uglies go on top of the stacks so they get burned all year as I start a new rack of wood. Some of those burly misshapen hunks are quite dense. I like to keep them near the stove so they get good and dry and use them on cold overnights.

That graph shows quite a difference. It is in celsius. Down at the bottom from 0 to 25°, (most of us don't heat much past 25/77), there isn't much difference in conductivity.

and no doubt it's a standout out there with the rest of the crew...
He uses the saw at his house, not at work, but for comparison he deals with the ones at work.
I need a coffee pot on ours too just in case I need some coffee real quick, great idea Mike.
At the hunting cabin we always have the coffee pot on the stove. Wake up in the morning and make coffee and oatmeal and you are out the door real fast! Really helps to keep opening morning on schedule.
Plus, any time of the day you need a coffee or hot chocolate, it is just good to always have the hot water. Also comes in handy for washing dishes!

Depends on the location. Usually if I am away from home and in a sleeper house like this https://www.pleasurelandrv.com/product/new-2019-glacier-17-rv-explorer-929174-8 I will cook on it. At my home I just have a spear house on the lake so it's a 2 minute four wheeler ride. I am only spearing northern and most all of them will go to pickling. On the bigger ones I will cut off some of the boneless pieces and cook them.
Need more spruce
I'm trying to help as is Mike and others in the thread, it sounded in the post below as though you wanted help?
Not really to into theory and all that, but I know what works and has helped me. Engineers and I always seem to bump heads as numbers on paper don't always fit into real world equations. Usually when we work together the solution is somewhere in between though so one cannot live without the other.
Here's another study to consider, I think it's more inline with what I wanted to get across

I don't throw heat out, I use the coals to warm the furthest point from my stove, kinda like you were saying storing up the heat from AU and putting it in the basement, but a little different. Another way is with a water tank, there are whole heating/cooling systems that work off heat storage, mine is just a bucket of coals.
I need to go cut some trees, I'm sure once I start to sweat I will cool down

Lol. That’s his empty back up food dish. He eats a lot.
