Summers done, time to get back in the woods.
If you had wind like we had last night and today, stay out of the woods until the wind lets up. Very strong gusts.
I'll check my woods tomorrow, likely need a chainsaw for sure.
Dave Klish, I recently ordered a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.
Got the all clear from the doctors last week! No new cancer. Been busy opening up a new section of woods adding more taps and repairing damage in the other bushes. Tanks out next week then I’ll start tapping. 24/7 here I come!
Great news!.
Started tapping today. Should have close to 2,000 in this week.
Good luck with your season van. Good to hear you're doing better.
