Step, Phat hails from Florida. Pretty much the polar opposite of NJ weather-wise.

Pipe, I replaced mine with seastar several years ago. Installed it myself, wasn't bad at all. Since then I had a cylinder leak - not a terrible leak, but bad enough I ended up replacing the cylinder. I looked into replacing seals/rebuilding the cylinder but found it was a bit to risky for my...

Why didn't I think of that! :) I may end up doing that for real.

Subscribed! Looking forward to seeing this

By the way, I don't worry about creosote too much with my 6" galvanized flue. I run a chimney brush down it before the beginning of the season and sometimes have to hit it again before winter is over. I can do it in maybe 20 - 30 min and its back to new. It is pretty crazy what comes out of...

Love those little Jotul stoves with the glass in the front. 602 CB model and F 3 CB I believe are the ones I always liked. Jotul makes some nice stoves what I've read on them.

I don't know why that would be as this hasn't happened to me lately. I'd be curious to know if anyone else is experiencing this.

I've got an old Huntsman wood stove that I bought for $350 several years ago. Heats my 1400 sq/ft shop like a dream.

Newest V21 is 29 years old (1996), except for the gaudy 2004 they put out with the euro transom. Was 1992 the last year for V20?

Interesting spot pattern, fun catch I'm sure

amazing what some elbow grease can do on old anything.

Hey Charlie, that's a pretty "young" V20 relatively speaking. You say it may or may not run - do you know if was it parked running? By the way, today is Friday for us working folks, in case you've lost track of which of your 7 Saturdays this is. :D

Not sure about iphones, but normally when a cert isn't there on a server you will get a warning when SSL is expired but also have the option to "continue to site" or something to that effect. I'm sure it was just the "IT department" lost track of the expiration date and had to scramble to renew...

26 here in central NC this morning and saw the snow last night as I was dozing off on the couch. Looks like we lost around 50% of the leaves overnight with the winds. That is a good thing IMO. Lots of trees around here, which I love but, I also dislike leaf blowing season.

Congratulations Dave! I've got a little ways to go.
