Still trying to figure that out. But so far I'm averaging like 1 wheel barrow or like 2 log carry bags seems to be enough. Mostly burning maple oak popple, but all depends on your comfort levels lol I like hot because I work in 120+heat at work so 89° mine as well be 0 lol because I'm freezingRefill...daily?
You like it? I have one that wears a 24". Always starts easy and is good on gas.

I really love it. Mine wears a 24” with Stihl RS full time, and it pulls it pretty good after a muffler mod and base gasket delete. It outpaces my buddies stock 362 by a bit with buried 24s on both, 362 still has the edge in small stuff though
I was thinking the same thing... We have "social fires" all day from morning to bed time on the weekends and that might be enough for the inefficient old fireplace!Refill...daily?

I need to get another Stihl to stay true to my namesakecuttinecho now.
We. Try to maintain around 72.
Use the furnace fan on recirculate to move livingroom heat to the rest of the house. It sort of works
. When ot gets down to single digits the furnace gets set to 65 to kick on after we go to bed.The gas Co must wonder about us
Our stove/fireplace is rated at 95k btus and 3500sqft
That's a lot of saws but not even close to Bill400

Is it that much of an improvement over the 362? IIRC they’re on the same chassis, 400 is just 67cc with a mag piston vs 59. Never ran one but I really want to400
Well I broke my planer . Was doing the backsplash ended up using my jointer and a hand plane on it . Took longer but the same end result 
Is that a Dodge truck with a full sized bed? If so, looks exactly like mine. What shocks you have on it? Mine would be squatting with a load like that. Oh yea, the wheel well rust also helps identify it. Mine's starting to rust there and I'd like to fix it if I knew anything about body work.
Yes quad cab 8 ft bed . This load the overloads springs aren’t even engaged yet I just have Gabriel magnum gas shocks nothing special . 3500 with plow and towing package . I have the patch panels but never got around to doing it this year .
OK, 3500. Mines only a 1500
. That explains it.
Ya that could make a difference.OK, 3500. Mines only a 1500
Some of the load has already been claimed . Wife gets good money for these Yule logs I was planing the backsplash and she pulled a white birch out and cut it up with her saw 
Allison, a sawing friend and I went over to a treeline at a neighbor's place, loaded up the van twice, maybe a cord total.
A bark off dead, red? elm had fallen in the field.
most is dry, some going straight in the stoves,
a huge branch off a red oak,
up to 15"D was already bucked by the neighbor, there's still 15' of 20"D+ out there,
And starting bucking up a medium ash.
Split and stacked what we hauled.
The gas splitter comes out for elm cuz I don't have that much gas...
Plenty more to go but I'll have get more skids to stack on, racks are full+10 cord more stacked.
It's an addiction.

What brand/size planer do you have? It looks like chinese metallurgy at work there.
SR
Dewalt 734 it’s been a great machine . I already ordered a new set and a set of blades from their Amazon store . Everything was 35$ so not to bad
But it was made in China
