Please post your ideas.. any money saving scheme would be appreciated!  Did anybody start a successful winter garden?  or made electricity?

LMAO. Great minds think alike. The only thing I have been thinking about is RSI's idea to modify a dryer. Very interesting concept!

Since this a non pressured system I don't think we can make electricity. You could do the winter garden thing if you had a greenhouse.

I have been wondering if the smoke could run a gas engine.(generator) I am not sure how it compares to a gasifier that they run them on. I have been thinking about trying it but the only easy way I see to get smoke out would be to put a fitting through the door and I don't really want to start hacking up my new gasification boiler..... yet. lol

I will probably try it rigging something up in the chimney if I ever get around to it.
