I've seen too much turtle shit on here so now I am going to post some Critter shit. The view from Critter's living room window this morning: And my new, but old wood stove, with rat dog: This stove is a fabricating marvel. I dug it out of my ex wife's basement over the weekend. It seems to be made out of either a water heater liner or maybe it is an old propane tank, but the guy that made it had some slick ideas. If anyone here wants to see more detail in order to maybe make one, let me know. It works fanFREEKINtastic.

laughing...do you live in a cabin? looks very rustic with that huge stone fireplace. snow (brrrrrrr) i just got through walking wearing a cropped t-shirt!
Not really a cabin, a little red country cottage. I got whacked with a foot of snow the other day and a 36 hour power failure. It seemed like a good time to take out the pellet stove and put in the wood stove. Also a good time to tweak the generator and give it a preseason warmup. lol
Critter has a COOL pad! :-) On the woodstoves my Grandfather builds, he takes the thermostat from old chick warmers and rigs them up to a secondary air intake. As the stove cools in the night the bimettalic strip slowly opens the intake allowing some additional air in and stoking it up some.

Clever old timer. :) I'd like to do that to this one one day. I was just gone for 9 hours. I stoked it up at 4 PM, and when I left, the house was 75 degrees. After 9 hours, I still had good bed of coals, and the house was 60 degrees. The temp outside is 19 degrees right now. The guy that built this thing knew his shit.
