Rick,
      You want to see creosote, you should of got a Opt 250...Mild weather, longer idle times, and I get creosote.

      I'll trade you straight up if you want a gassifier.  Been in service since Sept.  I'll provide the trucking.

      But, when clean, it is virtually smoke free.

      My firewood is well seasoned, and dry.  Oak, maple, black birch, ash, hickory.  All good stuff.

      Wonder if they sell Simple Green by the 55 gal drum?
