go for it G,
necessity is the mother yadda yadda yadda

we had a woodburning stove store in the 70's. sold jotul, vermont casting. birmingham iron works, earth stove, and a few more i can't remember. also pre fab fireplaces.
great idea, just hard to make a go of it with our 4-6 week winter

if i only could have come up with a wood burning air conditioner

You would be rich. I think it could be done, really.

Sold an old vermont castings on craigslist a little while ago, wished I'd kept it now.

#Holland Grill

preaching to the choir, blue

had this one about 20 years, rebuilt it 3-4 times

I saw it in the corner of your smoker picture. I've had mine for several years and my buddy was original owner for several years. I've only rebuilt mine once but recently my dad got a freebie at a yard sale in ok shape. At some point I'm gonna do some part swapping.

Yours looks really good to be that old.

p.s. nice king

I also have a Holland!!! had it for about 15 years.great grill just cook by time. mine only has one burner so its a little slow. back when they had the filters in the stacks it would smother the flame out. I found this out the hard way on my birthday one year. I was cooking chicken and went out to ck on it. the flame had gone out,so I turned off gas valve and cked everything. seemed to be fine. with the lid open I took my lighter stick put it in the round port and then turned the gas lever on. all I saw was a red fire ball coming out!!!!!!! I caught on fire. had 2nd degree burns over 95% of my face!!!!!!!this is the worst thing I have ever been thur, but was lucky that there was no permanent damage and no plastic surgery. it took me a week or two before I would use it again. I now have a different lighting procedure!!!!!! that all happened 13 or so years ago and I still am using to this day!!!!!!!!!
