General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / GAS PRICES

« on: February 12, 2012, 05:07:08 PM »

So watching the national news (NBC)..They are saying it could be the highest ever at the pump by Memorial Day.. $4.35 for Boston, $4.95 Chicago. $4.75 for LA....I can't even imagine heating oil/propane prices next winter considering K-1 is $4.36 a gallon and heating oil is $3.79 + a gallon currently in NH....Def the best investment of owning the OWB..

General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Wood gas truck

« on: February 11, 2012, 07:58:26 PM »

 So I was watching Doomsday Preppers on the National Geographic Channel..Guy had a CB outdoor wood boiler.. Heated his house with it and also a  made dehumidifier to make beef jerky.. Using the hot water from the OWB..Pretty neat set up..What got me..He has a  truck that runs 100% off of wood gas.. Had some kind of set up in the back of the bed of the truck..Piped the wood gas to the intake of the engine...Pretty neat..Anyone out there ever hear of wood gas power? I googled it..Theres some you tube videos on the wood gas truck

What size does everyone cut there fire wood?..Just curious... If you burn 3 or 4 foot wood length...Its it worth burning that size wood?
