You could always use the 36" bar model for an ax after the motor pukes in a month. >:D

I think there may be a bit of confusion here.  The OP hasn't put up his pic yet.  The "steamer" up there is someone else.

(is that a UFO in the upper right?)  :o

Watched a video of a 9560 with 8 rows doing corn.  Good Lord,,,,, looked like he was going at least 10 MPH! :o
The old Gleaner E didn't quite have that in it!  We've come a long ways. :thumbup:

Fighting weather during harvest always sucks.  BTDT many moons ago. :bash:
How many acres,,,, how many rows on your head?

Putting your photos off site is really no big deal, and it's done all day, every day by thousands.
Besides Photo Bucket, there are other sites, one being "Flickr".  (Yes, it's spelled correctly) :)

General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Re: Keep the heat *IN* your building!

I am 100% on the same page as Mr. AirForcePOL. My finances we absolutely BLEEDING when the sellers lied to us on the heating bills. I had to stop the bleeding. I now heat my poorly insulated house for $150 a month instead of over $600. Most of those savings go to paying off the stove. Cutting wood is practically a hobby. I'm not going to spend another large sum of money for new windows just to save on "free" wood.
Nothing is "free".  :)

General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Keep the heat *IN* your building!
« on: November 20, 2014, 08:33:42 PM »
Have been reading here for some time now, and I must say that there's a wealth of good info.  Am planning on building my own unit soon this year, and will be using ideas found here.

BUT,,,,,,,, one of the most confusing and frustrating things that I keep reading here over and over is things like: "it's heating upwards of 10,000 UN-insulated square feet"
"my windows are very leaky" 
"only have about 6" of insulation in the attic"
"haven't had time to go around with a can of foam and seal up the air leaks"
 etc, etc.

Come on, guys.  You need to fix the your building envelope!  Why spend all that money on such a large furnace when 1/4 to 1/2 of the heat is being wasted?  And burn all those cords?
It just doesn't make sense.
