Thanks for all the input! Is the pellet feeder easy to add to an existing stove? I haven't done any research to see the process.

With a wood stove,  A while ago I got some advice,  It works.

When you cut your wood for your stove.  Cut just a couple inches short, so you have the wood the full length of your stove.  Will make the world of a difference.

Cutting the wood to fill the stove is a great tip.  Another easy one for first thing in the morning is a simple Presto log.

The pellet feeder I got was very easy to install, they give you a template to cut the hole and it hangs off the back of the stove.  I used a drill and a jigsaw, took me about 15 minutes to modify my stove.  It comes with a cover plate to put back over the hole if you don't have the feeder with you.  You can burn pellets or close the chute on the feeder and burn wood in the main stove.  At one point I had the pellet feeder going along with the wood last year.  They also have an attachment that lets you burn diesel, kerosene or used motor oil.  I went with the pellets because they were easier for me to pack to where I hunt.  You can also buy the stove and the pellet feeder or oil drip as a package already fabbed up if you are not mechanically inclined or don't already have a stove that can be modified.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

Where do you buy the feeder? Brand name? Ect...

PM sent with information on manufacturer.  I didn't want to break any rules about advertising.

A couple manufacturers make gravity feeders designed for their own stoves, but the most commonly advertised is Cylinder Stoves brand.

That is the one I use and have no complaints.
