Which is better? In what ways?
What wood burning stove have you?
I have an old cast iron type stove (very heavy and rusty) and stainless steel one (lighter, not rusty but tarnished).
Titanium stoves seem popular these days.
But they are more expensive too. Are titanium stoves worth the extra...
Not sure, if sleeping over night in the tent with the wood burning stove on is OK for safety.
This youtuber seems feeling quite comfortable sleeping with the burning wood stove going all through the night.
I can appreciate your concern with the confined space and running wood burning stove in it. But that is why we all try to learn and get better in know-hows on running them with total safety.
If there is no such risks involved in the operation, then no one would even mention about it.
Now I...
Yeah, sleeping in a car sounds awfully uncomfortable and restricted, unless in emergency case being trapped in snow storm or something like that.
Caravan or tent sound better.
The youtube presetner in above video seems to have managed to cook his dinner, had the dinner, and spent a night in the hot tent ok without much difficulties.
For myself, I am only trying to learn about it before actually trying the hot tent, maybe this winter, if all seems ok.
This tent in the yotube video is exactly the same tent as mine. The presenter is using a lot smaller (maybe the smallest) wood stove, and it seems working OK. My large stove is about 4 times larger than the one in the video. My 2nd wood stove which is old, is about twice larger than the one...
In the past, I was thinking in that way too, but then there are many folks who are running hot tents all the time through the year without any problems.
Yeah I might try to get a photo or two and upload here. I am moving a lot of large plants today, and it will be a hard days work. I will jump into the tent for sitting down and having some cold drinks when I need rest under the shade in the middle of the work.
I have 2 stoves too. One is a large stove with 127mm chimnies, an the other one is an old rusty Norwegian army stove with 89mm pipes.
The larger stove chimeny wouldn't even fit into the stove jack of the tent unless it gets cut.
The old Norwegian army stove pipe fits ok, and the stove sits OK...
I got this new hot tent, which came with stove jack. But I feel my wood burning stove might be too close to the tent wall.
The tent is 1 or 2 person for max, which is not roomy. When the stove is placed in the tent under the stove jack, the back of the stove is very close to the tent which...
I have read the news that some campers died of Carbone Monoxide poisoning off the kerosene heaters in their tents, but never read or heard of the similar tragic cases from the wood burning stoves.
I have some Fiskars garden tools. They are 2x small wood cutting axes X10 X7 (?).
I also have 2x Fiskars retractable garden saws, which are excellent.
My first Fiskars tool was the brush hook bought used from eBay 15 year ago for a tenner. It still works like the first day. Very sharp edges...
Ordered a long handled billhook from ebay 3 days ago. The seller posted via Royal Mail Tracked 48, and it arrived OK yesterday. The billhook has the sharpest edge I have seen, and works great. RM seems keep delivering blade stuff no problem as of well into mid May 2024.
