I feel your pain on the cold. It was 15 here today and wind made it colder. I heat my place with wood and coal. I have a Harman Mark 2 coal/wood stove, picked it up for 300 bucks, replaced firebrick and welded a crack behind the door (every Harman of this style I have seen has it). Works great.

Yea I hear ya, I like to work mine but im not opposed to a shed queen and a worker . How much wood do you go through would you say ?

I have no idea, cord wise. And it really depends on the wood, and obviously how cold. I have a 2011 Toyota Tacoma, and I would say, generally I go through 8-10 truckloads of wood a year. Everything I burn is seasoned, at least a year and it consists of white ash, red/white oak, and locust. I usually throw some nut coal in with it at night, or when it’s super cold. I rarely burn all coal, only because I never really figured the right air mixture out to maintain a good burn. I can hold fire for about 6 hours. But this is primarily a coal stove, and as such the firebox isn’t really big. Sorry for some rambling

Yea there are alot of factors for sure. Sure hard to beat seasoned oak though.takes forever to dry up
