Continuous CSG using saw dust

:( That's awful Hoggy. So it was just by using pellets instead of dust? My deepest condolences. I hope Mk II is up and running soon.

Yes I have, but as long as I am in an experimental phase I prefer to go easy and cheap, A plastic contaner is easy to manipulate with a stanley knife, soldering iron and hot-glue. Using SSteel wouldn't have changed the outcome, only I would have saved the box.

The air-tight food container was around 6 $, can't make it from SSteel for that money....

Very true and if you were not in Canada I would send you a stainless box to help support the effort. Keep moving forward Hoggy it's a great project.

Lol Doc.....thanks for the offer, but it is not about the money....it's about being able to do easy modifications, which is less easy to do with stainless steel.

AND, I would NEVER replace plastic for stainless steel, because of any fire hazard....in that case I wouldn't do it at all......the ventilator was just a bad idea, let's face it.

I am on low profile right now with my efforts, as have to make my money in 4 months a year, and my season has just started, so don't think I gave up.
