How the heck do you get warm using that on the ice with the wind blowing? Here we make small woodstoves out of peaces of pipe to put in an ice shack. ( little stove pipe sticking through the back of it ) It is a nice job congrats.

sweet. I Alberta we can light fires right on the lake.
Umm hate to break it to yah but in alberta you cant thats why i made it cause i too live in Alberta and they dont allow it cause the burnt wood and ashes are toxic to the water or fish therefore your not allowed to have a fire on the ice, unless it is in a container and raised up off the ice.
hmm well i learned something today

I just leave the thermostat on about 3 maybe 4 if it gets cold. That keeps the ice house about 60-70 all winter.

Well i tried it out the other day out on the ice didnt really need it to stay warm since i got sun burnt but i was able to feed everyones belly's with some smokie's i cooked on it but all in all it worked awesome, didnt take long to cool down due to the light gauge metal and it stay lite really well for a long time too. So the test was a success.

That is a great looking firepit/grill LC. When are you going to start taking orders for them?
