>Shane, > >Ash is a very good insulator, but only if kept dry. It was one of the >ingredients we used when making a portable rocket stove. Kind of a Y2K >camping stove made out of a 5 gallon pail with a 3 inch metal vent pipe (w/90 >degree elbow coming out). Fill the pail with ashes and the vent pipe with >small sticks and you have a snappy little camp stove that gets hot very fast >and burns a surprising long time on a little scrap fuel. >Dave Hi Dave..speaking of stoves... and ashes... did you see my "How to Build a Rocket Stove" booklet at the MREA fair over at the Earth Quarterly booth? I can't rememebr if you sent me a message back? thanks Charmaine R.
