This should not be a problem with Champion TLUD stove - since this stove has 
a provision for attaching a blower for the primary air.

A blower will be definitely needed to push the primary air through the saw 
dust.

A fine mesh can be added above the regular SS mesh ( below the fuel bed ) - 
so that fine particles do not fall through.
