What size wood you guys throwing in your OWB?
Ive got a Woodmaster 5500. Most of the wood Im burning right now is around 20-24" in length, split by hand. Ive been getting good 12 hr burns, without completely filling the box. Pretty much have a fire centered in the box. Id say that even if I load it to the top, its still only half full.
I have some smaller diameter stuff thats drying for next year that I didnt need to split so I left them 30-36". Id like to use the longest lengths possible but more than 3/4 of what Ive been cutting, I cant split that long by hand.
So, if I had a splitter that could handle 3-4 foot logs, I wonder if Id get better burn times. Seems logical since there woud be more wood in there.
