Picture of me billets drying in the sun

[firewood]

What model is it? I have a Bosky, that has a 15 long by 12 wide by 24 inches deep firebox, and on wood I struggle to keep it in. If I bank it right up at 11pm, its still in at 6am.

I want a big outdoor boiler really.

 

 

 

It is a Franco Belge range with two big square hot plates and an oven (light brown in colour, I think they mostly came in brown). also does the hot water and central heating. probably about 12 years old and it came with the house.

 

As long as you are using dry wood it works a treat for the hot plates, hot water and heating but the oven is slow. If you use coal you can smelt metal in the oven and send the pipework into a frenzy of knocking and venting steam! (as i found out when we first moved in, and, due to inexperience, I overloaded the firebox).

Not that it's any of my business but why would you leave it in long lengths to dry only to cut it down to size later ?

 

Easier to stack in billets

Nice work Dave!

[Chris Sheppard]

makes my stacking look terrible

[davetaz]

all timber stacked like this, apart from odd bits thrown into large crates made from pallets

Oh I've got firewood allright,literaly tons of it . It stacks just fine in 16" pieces .

 

That stove has no ash pan as it was design to burn only wood .With the forced air blower it does nicely .
