Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Over Reach and Control

Who the heck would put a wood stove in a bedroom? Good grief it would be like sleeping in a sauna!

When building our home, I had a vault door delivery where the common carrier would not enter my driveway. I worked with them by driving my pickup out to the street, backing it up to their truck, and sliding the door into my truck bed. I bit of a hassle, but better than the alternative. Might that work in your case?

They probably realized how over qualified and special you are then decided you were not right for their extra special delivery service.



And yes, I’d consider it “over reach and control” for anyone to try and tell a private company how to run their shipping department and policy.

Have you ever been in an old person's house?

Where would all of the moisture come from?

Many people are so used to government over reach that they'll play the game just to get what they want. The communist plan is working.

Hunting camp is 16x20 - woodstove in the middle. Can be so warm in there you have the door open in a blizzard or it can be a comfortable 68 degrees - all depends on how you run a fire.

Who's paying the freight? You or the mfg?

You mentioned being remote - I'm wondering if they really don't want to deliver to the boonies with a liftgate truck given the cost of getting it there if they're paying the freight.

Don't be surprised if they determine your location is "undeliverable" and require you to pick up at the cross dock.

You need to leave that state

It seems this would be the simplest answer.

Unless the place he ordered if from is not nearby???

Expert advice! That should keep that blazing hot, uninsulated furnace from burning the house down.

I was wondering the same thing...

Mine's on a 5.5'X6' pad of mortared-in rock base.. Behind it is literally a brick wall that's 9'W X 9'H.. Heats the whole house (2200 ft. sq.) quite easily.. A wood stove in a bedroom should keep anyone toasty - unless the resident is a freeze-baby like my wife..

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I am getting ready to
That is why I want the Stove.

My Bedroom is 15ft X 20ft
In the winter time it gets well below freezing and it is real nice to build a small fire to get warm before I go to bed.

Andit is real nice when I go working out in the snow to come into a warm room to relax.

I am paying the Freight
And they bought my BS about the Ranch
The Stove shipped out today.

I should have it next week sometime.

Think you and I came out of the same mold !

When I built my house only had help when I rough framed it in I did all the other work myself ! Wood stove put 1" Durarock behind the stove then put stone also on the floor put cement board then slate....building inspector came and would not pass the work HE wanted a commercially made fireplace NOT one I built....there is nothing in the Township or State building Code at that time outer than you must do set backs according to the manufacture .....when the Township was given Court papers that they were being Sued Head of the Building Department showed up the next day and gave me outside my home a Final Inspection never looked at the work passed and a refund check for the permit....

I have a Miele 8 burner commercial stove, refrigerator, under the counter refrigerator and dishwasher I bought from a wholesale store used a friends restaurants name didn't have a problem but they would only deliver to my attached garage not into the house....got tired of buying the junk sold every where else....

I built my 299sq. ft bedroom in my front yard here in Commyfornia.
Code Enforcement was taking pictures thinking I was adding on to my home with no permit.
The bedroom would be standing tall some days and them laying out of site from the street other days.
Code enforcement was caught by my neighbor scratching their heads wondering where the addition went.

I made it Sectional like a kit.
Picket it up with an auto crane that I installed on my goose neck trailer and hauled the bedroom in 2 loads up to my place in Arizona.
It took me a total of 2 days to have it up and roofed in Arizona.

My wood Stove I built is to big for that small room and there was a learning curve on how big of a fire I needed.
It has a 1/2" thick plate for the top because that is what I had on hand. It Pops Great popcorn on it.
I also have a Funnel for the bottom with a 4" pipe running outside the room to clean the ashes.

I picket up the Stove and put it inside the room with the crane before I put the roof on.

I did all of this with no help from anyone.
The only help I may have got was my girl holding the end of a tape

The bedroom is now about 80% complete with knotty pine walls A/C Power , pressurized water (soon to have well water) , Large shower , Tank less Water Heater, Composting Toilet , Microwave , Coffee maker , Small Refrigerator/Freezer , Solar Power and a ceiling fan.

All the work was done by myself
No Code Enforcement and no BS Building Dept.
At the time I built it Arizona did not require Permits for any building up to 300 sq ft.
My Bedroom is 299 sq. ft, on the out side.

I have a 120 sq. ft room that I will add on another 180 sq. ft for my Kitchen keeping it at the 300 sq. ft or less range so that I can tell Code Enforcement to get off of my property.

I will have a Tile floor and have 1" Concrete Hardy Board and tile behind and around my Stove when I get everything all finished. That will be move than any Commercial cooking facility has for their fire protection.

As a Building Inspector my self I have had to deal with these Azz Clowns for over 35 years and I want nothing to do with them when I leave Commyfornia for good.
