Hi I have a Jøtul stove, lounge is a converted stable from 1850 with 4m ceiling so takes a while to warm up. When the Stables were converted they installed underfloor heating as the primary heat source with nothing else in the lounge. Takes 12 hrs to heat up and designed to be left on 247. With the current UK natural gas prices I had to look for an alternative.

The stove is an 11kw unit.

That's pretty! I was just wondering what stove took short pieces like that.

With the fence I guess you have some future firewood helpers?
 
I changed the way I am doing it this year. I just split right over the bucket on my tractor and then dump it in the truck. Then I take it to the poll barn where I stack it.
Last year I hauled rounds to the poll barn and split it there. This is much easer for me. I am lucky I have 4 tree services bringing me wood and chips for my grinder now. I am thinking about wood heat for my farm shop now.

That is a nice stove. Don't think they sell them state side.


Still a fairly niche brand over here but had that space and wanted an upright. The Scandinavians site know how to make stoves.
Thought about back boilers etc but was going to be far too much ball ache.

1990 Land Rover Defender 90 TD. Quite a shed, pig to drive, not much electrically works on it, bang my elbows constantly when it gets interesting. Love it.
Hopefully picking up a newer model soon.
 
I finally finished blocking up the cottonwood today. The last log was hanging over the ditch, and I didn't feel like dragging the rounds back out of the ditch, so I got out the Massey. I usually don't skid backward like this, but I wanted as much of the log off the ground as I could get to tear up the yard less and keep the dirt off the log:

I had the 7300 loaded in the trunk of the car for tomorrow's gtg across the river in MN, and I needed to play with the P-60 Pioneer anyway. That's the short bar, also have 36" for it. 6 cubes and .404 chain makes for lots of big chips, and big grins on your face!

Hopefully I'll finish splitting and stacking Sunday. I'm backed up on trees that friends want me to take off their hands, and just want this finished before I wander off to the next project.
