Lol your probably right, I'm thinking I'm gonna be between 15-20 lbs a day this winter, I'm only burning 19.3 a day in my hand fed furnace right now, and hope to burn around 40 a day once winter hits, I burned 50 a day last winter and I've done some mods to it for this season.

Looks like it's a keeper. Use that slicing poker to do a good job on the ash.hotblast1357 wrote:Update... Still doing 24 hour burns, OAT of 40/28, garage temp no lower than 69, stove temp 300, stack temp 120, put 15 lbs in to fill it completely.

I will, I have been running it down through the top also to make sure there is no bridging.

Would a strategically placed fan on the floor near the stove help to wash some heat off the stove?
