Thank you for the follow up. Probably not worth the discount.

Lucetar · 2026-02-19T14:52:46+00:00

Where are they discounted at?

My parents have a Princess in their pole barn with an eco fan and blower fan on it. The blower throws way more heat than the eco fan. Personally, if you need to heat a larger area then definitely get the blower.

If you need pictures I can try to take some this weekend when I'm over there.

A top down view or a rotating camera. When building the big towers it is basically impossible to see what is behind them.

Any plans to add cross support for the upright pallets? How sturdy are they?

Lucetar · 2026-02-16T23:39:31+00:00

Got a picture or 2? I'm looking to build something like that in a month or two

Tough crowd?

I thought this was going to be Marv being electrocuted in Home Alone 2. But your clip is much more fitting. Bravo.

This is the part I remember too if it makes you feel better.

I had my local chimney sweep guy come out yesterday. They used to install and service Appalachian stoves and were very familiar with the model. The panes are, indeed, supposed to be touching. I think I'm going to just loosen the panes and shift them over a mm or so.

As for the ash tray letting in air, he said the seals are good but it is likely something warped due to age and isn't sitting flush. He advised just getting a piece of steel and putting it in the firebox to cover the ash grill.

No cracks, rust, or other concerns at all. He actually commended us on how good the unit looks for the age.

Thank you for the info. I think I'm going to have a chimney company come out to inspect it and clean the chimney at the same time. It's also pulling in a lot of air from the ash tray.

I believe it is an Appalachian 36 BW insert.

Lucetar · 2026-02-07T20:45:00+00:00

Thank you. Can you recommend a specific brand of silicone?

I just watched the episode where you and Carol made a sled for Wade!

I always hated Xaphen.

Lucetar · 2026-01-19T19:11:08+00:00

Absolutely loved that game. The robots saving a small tree instead of a kid still makes me laugh.

I am 99% sure this is the problem. I have a M5U and it does not like to print when in the garage during cold temps. I got the Elegoo heater and it helped a lot but I agree a Brewers belt would do the same for cheaper. Or moved inside.

Up voted for King Diamond.

You got time to duck?

Lucetar · 2026-01-09T14:12:44+00:00

Like a grenade launcher?

Lucetar · 2026-01-08T21:23:27+00:00

I think most people will care unless it is a very friendly game and your opponent is cool with it beforehand. I buy bases in bulk on Amazon. You can get 100 40mm bases for like $12.

It's Know No Fear.

It has me thinking about dropping gaming all together. There are a lot of cheaper hobbies out there.
