Only thing is I burn wood sometimes.[/quote][/quote]
I'm looking to control draft. But a baro might not be good with wood.

Did ya put a MPD in? I got a draft that'll suk the spots off a leopard & the MPD works fine. Personally I think it's that DRY wood more then anything else! I did wood for 30+ yrs & trust me, they are totally different critters. Combo burning sux & I've never seen a stove that does it well.

No MPD yet. This stove is awesome with coal. That wood sit in a old cleaned out chicken coop for a year.
