It's for warm water    - - - sorta like a water heating thingie only run on wood.  All the modern conveniences dochano

 
it has a grate and a tray to catch your ash ?

 
Do any of you live anywhere near the 21st Century?

:poke:
Makes me laugh this one Charlie,  in the 80's and 90's I was exporting used farm tractors to the Southern States, they were 70's and early 80's models which had got too small for the upcoming UK ag market.  I was selling direct to the end user and taking in 3 wheel gas powered John Deeres from the 40's and 50's which were still in use. I then brought them back to the UK and sold them to vintage collectors.

So maybe the Northern States are slightly modern, but down Georgia and Alabama its still draggin a leg to get to the 19th/20th Century....    Lots of mischief to be made down there though.......

 
I can tell you straight and true that the South is dedicated to backward.  That would go for about every aspect of life.  Education in particular.  I think it has something to do with the breeding patterns.

You were beyond brave venturing into that area without a sizable escort.  Preferably armed.  You could go to jail just for the way you talk in all likelihood.

This is not a joke

If it has a grate it's multi fuel!
If you had a cow for milk you wouldn't need so much wood either

Yes but if you burn your stove right you will never need to empty the ash tray. Never repeat never clean all the ashes from your stove in fact let them build up for a few weeks before you carefully remove some but leave the bed of ash about there or four inches deep. Set the fire on these ashes and you will get a much better heat out of the stove. Setting the fire... two logs about two third the depth of the stove with about four inches between them a piece of dry bark of thin piece of wood with a small piece of fire lighter on it the a bit of dry kindling bridging the two logs then on top of that two or three good dry logs set fire to the firelighter and relax. I am lucky my stove can be loaded from the side so logs are always put in from the side the front is never opened while the fire is lit. For a really good hot house warming fire really load your stove with wood this creates a nice bed of charcoal which gives off an amazing warmth. burning a stove is not as easy as it sounds to get the best from it you need to be able to drive your particular stove, when you have mastered it they are most rewarding... nobody drives a Nestor Martin Harmony III like me :lol:

Oh they are in the 21st century Charlie.............I think in the USA you call them hill-billies! I presume you've seen that film called "Deliverance"?  :D

I confess to not ever having seen that film.  Just sorta never happened.  Hillbillies, however, are certainly not an unknown.  I suspect that there are areas here in the US every bit as primitive as anything the UK or France has to offer.  Please understand, that is not a boast.   :(

To be quite truthful, there are streets/areas in downtown Los Angeles that would challenge nearly anywhere in the world for primitive.  That's not a boast either.
