I like your trick of using painter’s tape to label your cons. I think I’ll do that too! Further classification will make your panning faster and easier. Get yourself a 50 mesh classifier just like your 20 mesh. Maybe a 40 and an 80 would be even better!

I did add wood to it quite often, to get everything in the trailer warmed up, since it started at -16°. After you get the coals going and everything warmed up you only have to fill it with wood every couple of hours to keep it warmed up.

Are you happy with the Cub in the RV ? I’m torn between Grizzly vs Cub for our RV.
@FidoHouseАй бұрын
@davidfrise1728 I'm happy with it. I moved my furnace thermostat to bathroom so it would be unaffected - set at a lower temp, it will still run when I need heat below the floor for lines and tanks - while I enjoy the heated living area. If you want to cook on it, the Grizzly will give you more space. Regardless, I'm always on the lookout for very small pots, etc., and now have a good selection. The pieces of wood that can go in can be slightly larger in a Grizzly. I use an Eco-Fan, which sits on top to help push the hot air forward. I bought a "baby" chainsaw (12v Milwaukee cordless) to cut firewood to size more easily. My preference is for good quality compressed sawdust logs which I can just bang on the floor to break to right length. Cub will give you plenty of heat. Grizzly has advantage of larger fuel capacity so not refilling as often. Higher price up front. Regardless of size of unit, chimney connection is only 3". I got an adapter to 4" and got double-walled 4" stove piping - extra safety. Also, stove pipe thermometer for double-walled. I cut a 6" chimney-sweeping "broom" down to fit 4" and it works well. Hope this info helps.
