  3. 4 degrees at the moment but no wind . Stove ticking over . 👍
  4. outstanding ! looks better than a bought one !
  5. Mine is a wood only stove and has no grate so don't have that problem .
  6. I don't think any wood slumbers " cleanly " However I sometimes put a big lump of Oak on last thing at night ( it being relatively slow burning ) and in the morning there are enough embers to get it going quite easily .

    Poplar

    That's the complete opposite of my experience with poplar . Different species maybe .
  8. Yep seen a few vids on here of people doing it .
  9. Also if you stack rings one on top of the other they will stick together after getting wet .
  10. That's it for me . I am bailing out of this one 😀
  11. There is lots of potential fire wood where I live ( mostly felled ash ) l with easy access for me but , South Downs National Park want it all left as habitat . As you say the OP needs to get permission first .

    Poplar

    I think its good . Different species my vary a bit . The key is get it split and in the log store as soon as . Plenty of air but covered from rain . It absorbs wet like blotting paper if you don't . Skyhuck ( a member on here ) boiled his central heating with poplar .
