Personally, I live in South Texas and don't need no steenking heater! Seriously though, when we get those "blue northers" it gets damn cold down here. Had a guy from friggin' Minnesota tell me last year he found the coldest place on Earth, Port Aransas!! Me, I got a "real" fireplace in my hacienda, built outta solid brick and block. The thing radiates heat 10 hours after the fire dies! I figger it cut my electric heating bills by at least 50% last year, and I didn't use it to it's full potential. And fortunately for me, plenty of MO-rons cut down their trees 'round here and supply me with lotsa free firewood. I only need a cord to get me through, and could get by with less depending on the severity of the winter (which lasts maybe 2 months here). Now if I could only find an alternative to air conditioning...... Great post, glad yer back Rangerman. Personally, I live in South Texas and don’t need no steenking heater!

As a kid I helped my friends dad break them apart for scrap metal. These stoves are worth thousands of dollars each now. We got a couple dollars worth of metal out of each one. One thing about burning wood for heat - you can always find something, even furniture or pieces of your neighbors house if need be.
