Posts from the paper vault : On how a wood obsession happens.

CW: Wood

Originally written 07 02 2013

Living in a cottage where your main source of heat is an inefficient antique Jotul you get a bit obsessed with wood.

You go and find good try wood, that you then chop up. Then you stack it.

Start to get concerned at how much wood you are going through.

Start wondering about more efficient heaters. Start looking into heaters with more efficient heat distribution.

Start reading about Masonry heaters.

Then finally realise you are completely obsessed with Kachelofens.

Really obsessed, even more than you were obsessed with your favourite lust object.

It's at the point when you are scouring Amazon for a really big Fiskers splitting axe you realise that this may be an issue.
