Damn hipsters!

I remember when you could get a used good quality cast iron wood burning stove for $200. Prices have skyrocketed because "vintage" is hip now.

Oh well. Going to have to pony up the cash to heat the garage.

Anyone have any models of cast iron stoves they like? I love those jotul stoves, but they're pricey!
Yes RIP Filson for me for the the same plus other reasons. The other day they emailed me boasting of a Japanese denim drop and that was the nail in the coffin. Now it’s hip to dress like a logger or cowboy or whatever. I use Jotul wood stoves and have been happy with them. They are pricey but well made and designed. Mine has self cleaning glass and it actually works and stays clear and clean. It maybe excessive for a garage though. I had one of these in an out building and it heats good and is not as finicky about getting started or size of splits or anything like the new epa stoves are. They eat wood though. They “cigar burn” logs lengthwise front to back. They can be had for just over 300$ from the big hardware stores. IMG_8418.jpeg
 
I’m pretty hammered. Where did this close???????

OK…. I am legitimately confused at where the FBFK preorder ended lmao. There’s no post by Nathan, nor a time or post #, etc. No wonder drunk SpyderPhreak wasn’t sure lol.
The first post in the preorder was last edited by Nathan the Machinist Nathan the Machinist at 8:49 pm. Presumably this was when he added the “This pre-order is now closed. Thank you.”
So the last viable order was post #75 by F fleck .
