I will give it a whirl. You are sounding more like a city slicker than an owb kinda guy. Let me ask my fiancé what photobucket is and I will see what I can do!

I have a Vermeer trencher converted into a do it all machine for cutting and hauling wood! I can't post pics here with the iPad but I can email them to interested individuals. Machine weighs around 7000#. It's a late 80's model with a sturdy and dependable Ford 3 cylinder gas. Puts out around 60 hp with wide chained tires. The rear trencher has been replaced with a 6 foot I beam and 4 way splitter with around 60,000# of splitting force! Splitter is hydraulically controlled from either the driver seat or back by the splitter. Has a watertight toolbox mounted on the back along with a vise for carrying and sharpening saws. Has another saw carrier on the hood! Has Dana axels and will crawl straight up a cliff! On the front is a six way dozer blade for clearing a path or plowing the the driveway. Also mounted on the front is a 13,000# winch for pulling the logs to you! Winch can either be used hard wired or remote. Also on the rear is a receiver hitch so you can hook your dump trailer on and haul! If someone knows how to post pics on here I would be so grateful. I can email them to someone if they would be so kind. Asking $5000. Located near la crosse Wisconsin. Machine only has around 500 hours on it.

Sounds like a good idea! Balls in your court Yoder. I live by La Crosse WI. My stove is a 10,000e with the delete kit installed.

I will be heating about 8,000sq ft and the stove will be 150' from 3,000sq ft of that. Lines will be buried below frost line in the common insulated drain tile tube. Average temp December true February has been about 0 this year! I'm just afraid Heatmasters 10,000 sq ft heating capacity claim is overrated. Look what what happens to your truck if you tow the maximum limit everyday! You know what I'm getting at. Thanks for the replies guys and this site was sent from heaven! What a tool for fellow wood burners!

And what's "the math"? My guess is that I will need it mid November thru early march but not September,October,or late march or April. So as I see it I'm damned if I do,damned if I don't and this is why I see that bigger is better in this case. I'm not necessarily looking for the efficiency part but more for the "multiple night time fills". I love my stove but it should be a slave to me and visa versa! I have gas backup but when I come out to fill the stove and I see the gas backup running I get quite irritated! So one more time,what's the math? Thanks a lot!

I'm pretty high on my Stihl 441 with 20" bar but my biggest recommendation is to keep 'em sharp! That is the key to enjoyable and efficient cutting above all else!

HeatMaster / Questions on a 20,000e
« on: January 17, 2014, 07:28:55 PM »
Hey everybody,new to the forum and so glad I found you guys! I've been looking for years for a site like this! Anyway,hees my question...I currently have a 10,000e (2 years old) heating roughly 4,600 sq. ft. I'm building a 40x60 shop 150' from my house and thinking about upgrading to the 20,000e. Does anyone have any insight or thoughts on this? I have the chance to get a pretty good deal so I want to jump on it if it's the right move. I don't want to find out next winter that I need a bigger stove and have the deal taken off the table. Just as a side note I had a mf 10,000 for the first two years and then sold it to my neighbor and I got the 10,000e. I'm a freak about wood consumption and I can attest there are absolutely no wood savings switching from a standard to an e series. Anyway,back on topic any advice would be greatly appreciated.
