A little about me, my experience and background:
A few years ago, I started to be interested in outdoor wood burning furnaces as my own heating bills continued to rise, and a friend decided to try to build his own stove.   The process began with a lot of research as well as a lot of trial and error, until we had the finished product.  The amount of money we spent on materials, tool expenses and our time were more than what a new unit sells for today.  My father, a friend and I decided to purchase Shaver Outdoor Wood Furnaces instead of the money and time to make one ourselves, and still not be as efficient as the Shaver units. 

Upon a lot of research and experimenting with the Shaver units, we came to the conclusion that we had found the most efficient outdoor wood furnace on the market.   We even fabricated a few accessories (with the permission and approval of Shaver) to even greater enhance the energy efficiency of the stock Shaver Outdoor Wood Furnace.

In December of 2008, I added the Acme Furnace product line, as we feel that the customer needs a few more choices for their heating solution needs.  The Acme Furnaces are built by the Mennonites with extreme attention to detail and quality.

Along with the sales of outdoor wood furnace, I also have an excavating business in the Bi-state St. Louis area.   I install septic and aeration systems, dig basements, install water lines, sewer lines and mains, land clearing, demolition and any type of work that is to be done with heavy equipment.   Equipment includes: excavator, backhoe loader, rubber track compact loader, dozer, mini-excavator, trencher and a wide array of small specialty tooling required to complete some of the most extensive or small projects.
