That is awesome. I have a guy that will bring wood chips and have plenty of horses around to try this.

That was pretty cool, eh I mean hot.  I can get the piping I need and perhaps the wood chip from a local tree surgeon but the manure would be problem; I don't have any livestock.  I wonder if there is anything else that may act as a substitute?  Roger

You could print off all of Hillary’s campaign speeches and see how that works for manure.

Chicken owners been using a variation of this for years. We call it the "deep compost" method.... Just adds that little bit of extra heat to the coop.
