The things you find on Facebook are sometimes pretty neat. I saw this video of a 14 hour burn campfire without being touched so I had to watch it. Pretty neat watching. Now if someone could adapt this concept for a self feeding wood boiler you would really have something......A wood fired boiler with a hopper? This is kinda like that wood furnace that burned whole logs without being cut and quartered.

Geez Fred, Im surprised you didnt call that mental masturbation
That is a neat video though. I never had trouble keeping a fire overnight or 12 hours, but I can see how that fire would give off more flames for viewing and lighting the general area.
