We replaced a great reliable Jotul with this Waterford 100, bought for cheap. I like the stove, well made, heavy, but by God it smokes. It smokes on lighting. Smokes when the fires going well and everything is hot. Basically if the door is opend, it smokes. The Jotul never smoked. Now, the Jotul was old with the internal baffels cracked, and I passed it on to a relative for his workshop. It was running a light gauge, single wall stainless flue, no probs. I gave the flue away with the Jotul, and bought a new flue for the Waterford 100, a heavier gauge, single wall stainless. Anyone have experience with this stove? I'm thinking the internal airflow Dynamics of the Waterford are just not as good as the Jotul. It also has a wider opening than the Jotul. Here's a pic. Ideas will be great fully received.

I am on the lookout for all types of fruitwood, Apple especially. It is to be packaged and sold as smoking wood chunks. If you have the wood, kit and time to process it into chunks, and can deliver it to Harlow, Essex, I can pay up to £400 / tonne. I think the best way would be in a builders sack which I could fork off and then weigh it with our pallet scales. You will get paid the same day via BACs. It would need to be the following spec: The lengths of the chuncks should be between 1 and 3 inches. (1 1/2 inch is ideal, but hard to achieve constantly, hence the wide range) The width of the chunks should be between 2 and 4 inches at its widest point This will dictate to you when to split a length of wood or not prior to sawing into chunks. If it is a narrow branch (around 2 inches in diameter) it can just be sawn in the round so there would be no need to split it. The wood must be clean, and can not have any metal or rubber in it. This is very important as I won't be able to accept it if I find metal or rubber in it. (Not trying to be awkward, I just won't be able to sell it) The wood can be green. I need to know where you sourced the wood from, and the species of fruit it produced (i.e Cox apple) If you're interested please PM me, or ask any questions here. Here is a picture of some plum wood chunks we recently had to help give you an idea. Cheers, Lewis
