Haven't had much to say in a while, but after finally (3 flipping years-Divorce slows things down...) installing my Chappee boiler in October I have gotten onto the rest of the "Fuel Infrastructure" Here's the doghouse for the outside portion of the Chute. Since bulk isn't a good option (Electrical service drop overhead) I designed it to be a at good height to rest the bag on the hatch combing to slit the bottom.
Pictures of the bin to follow once I build it.- confedsailor
