congratulations, it looks great. Hope you are warm, I'm having trouble with my Mt. Vernon igniting the corn, my dealer seems to be avoiding me for some reason.

Have you checked the moisture on your corn? I've heard that high moisture corn can be a little hard to light.

Just during startup? Do you auto ignite corn? How about a handful of pellets in the pot first.

Wow...still amazed. I can only imagine how good the newer stoves are.
This morning we changed the door seal and i lowered the temp in the house.
We went four wheeling all day came home way after dard and fired that sucker up...people were falling asleep from the heat here.
I love it.

Sounds like a very neat house!! Maybe if it's not any trouble sometime you can take a shot or two of it and post on the forum. It must be very well built to have withstood that amount of time in your northern conditions. How cold do you get up there, how about the heat in summer?
Stay Warm,
