I got a wood burning stove.

Green new deal will kick in eventually or they sell all our natural gas to China. Either way, I'm positioning myself to not give a fuck.

Glad your taking steps to be self sufficient

It will be illegal to burn wood, your smoke will give you away.

If you expect that to a problem where you live in the future, you need to fuckin' move.

Nah, I bought mine when obama was elected in the second term. But the green deal will most likely make it illegal.

I was just looking at a few of these over the weekend. Never had one and don't know anyone who has used them. Any tips on what to look for in quality or ease of use?

Understand what your needs are and choose based on that.

  • Do you need it for heating or just cooking, etc?

  • What kind of fuel is available

  • How easy is it to get parts, maintain, clean

  • Portable or fixed unit

For me fuel limitations is a big issue. There are no hardwoods in my jungle and because of the weather, even small diameter wood cuttings can take more than a year to dry out. The best fuel I have is bamboo so I got a rocket stove. I also like that I can haul the stove around the homestead to do different task.

I got a rocket stove.

I was thinking of getting a small one of these just in case I need it. Do you have an indoor setup for it or do you use it mostly outside?
