Using an adaptation of Paul Wheaton's portable rocket mass heater design, (I don't know if he wants his name on here. to be potentially edited later), the new resident/intern and myself made relatively quick work of moving a bunch of bricks and laying out the burn chamber after building a frame out of lumber this morning.
Today was much about getting (UNTIL ANONYMOUS) acclimated to the farm and showing him around the place. I am much appreciative to have his help, and it was especially brisk outside so that appreciation was exponential.
Before we moved the bricks inside we did some experimentation with a mocked up rocket stove outside the greenhouse. It is a difficult process to explain, but the stove started pulling the flames in almost immediately.
