Y'all have been busy posting the last few days, geez.
Actually, it is all this morning (US time). It was dead over the weekend.

Yeah, it was an incredibly slow weekend. Jared was nearly the only one around.

@dafyre got tired of that stuff, so I put in a pellet stove. Bags come on a pallet. Carry them in and keep a stack next to the stove in the basement. (I rigged up a forced-air system, so it acts as a furnace and does a great job.)
Do you have that tied in with the AC as well?
Pellet stoves don't do AC too well. Nah, no AC. I live in NY, remember?

This is the first weekend since I joined I wasn't on.
Heck, I even posted all through Thanksgiving!
-
This has been a really slow week or two for me too. I've been exhausted and watching the kids so much that I have been on very little.
-
@dafyre I wouldn't recommend trying to burn pellets in a wood-stove. Sure, they'll burn, but your grate isn't set up to handle the tiny little pellets. Pellet stoves have a hopper and an auger and a small burn pot. There is a timer on the auger to feed a small amount of pellets into the burn pot, which operates in a pressurized compartment. It's its own animal.

@dafyre & @art_of_shred Home Depot had a sale last week for a pallet of Pellets for $250.
Not sure if it's a good price or not, but worth mentioning if it is.

How much is on a pallet? Weight wise?
-
Something like 250 Pounds, I don't recall exactly, but that seems close (in my head)
-
A pallet of pellets is typically (50) 40# bags = 2,000#. $250 is an average price for the mid-grade stuff that would be available at HD.
-
Ha, guess I wasn't paying that close of attention... 250 vs 2000 pounds
-
Being "in-season", that's probably a good price. I buy off-season and spend about the same for high-quality pellets, and they get delivered to my door.

How long does that ton of Pellets last you? I live down south, so I need both AC and occasionally the wood burner, lol.

Ups is dead.

Welcome back
thanks.

Be thankful, this didn't happen while you were gone.
-
although I suppose had it been while you were gone it would have highlighted how much they need you rather than looking like you are cursed.
