hardwood such as oak or maple. \nEucalyptus burns really hot and smells good - but the creosote will build in your chimney,

not really, cottonwood is a softer wood, as i grew up with a wood stove in the house the best woods to use for this are the hard woods, ie: oak, maple, hickory, but you need to use what you have available, we always burnt the hardwoods, we would always cut wood in the warmer winter days or late fall. then stack it in the shed or under a tarp till the following year, so it had time to "season" (dry) the reason for the hardwoods is that they give off the most heat, and burn the longest due to the higher density.

propane is hotter. It gives off more heat than let's say a heat pump for a house. The offset in price from propane to electric is alot. Sorry I don't have numbers for you. I used to install furnaces and the lp gas or propane furnaces did much better at heating the house than the electric ones did. I won't even go into the water heaters.

It makes very little difference assuming equal thicknesses, because the insulating factor for both wood and brick are very poor. How much "good" insulation you have in each case makes the difference. Materials like fiberglass are three or more times more effective than either wood or brick. \n\nAs a side note. Most house today are not made of brick but only have a brick veneer over a wood frame.

My friends use BBQ lighting fluid. They have a performance company that specialises in use of poi and fire staffs. They are also students though so they use what is cheap and may not necessarily be the safest!\n\nThis is an excellent website (that my friends like) if you are interested in poi and other fire tricks. There's a gallery to see people in action.\nhttp://www.homeofpoi.com/\nThis is the same websites page on best (and safest) fuels.\nhttp://www.homeofpoi.com/articles/FireSafety.php

Silver birch barch apparently makes very good kindling.\nFinger size to wrist size - of thickness ranging between finger width and size of wrist.\nDon't try adding large pieces of wood too early or you may risk smothering the fire.

Your question is phrased incorrectly. It should be: Which is better?

I agree. The one when youre not involved. It's more hotter for many reasons.

it depends on the type of wood the humidity of the air the ammount of oxygen getting to the fire the ammount of wood along with many other things

A flame is a mixture of gases undergoing a chemical reaction that gives off enough heat to continue the reaction in the molecules that have not yet reacted.  We get the impression that solids (like wood) burn, but it's really mainly the gases coming off of them that burn.  That's why it's easier to start a hot piece of wood on fire than a cold piece of wood.  The initial piece has to be hot enough so that the flamable products escape from it in vapor form.

Fraser fir will be a good tree. They have short, soft needles that stay on better than almost any other.\n\nTo keep your tree nice as long as possible, cut an inch off the bottom just before bringing it inside. Put it in water and don't let it dry out. The tree will take up a lot of water for the first 24 hours.\n\nThere is a product from "Naturally Safe Technologies" that will help your tree last and makes it somewhat fire resistant. It comes in a packet looks like a Kool-Aid pack. If you can find it, use that in the water.
