Crispin,

I appreciate the details that you provide at your website.   Every piece 
and step.   And the .pdf number
> 61 DD1 v0.5 Complete, no doors.pdf 
> <http://www.newdawnengineering.com/website/library/Stoves/fish_dryer/Ghana_downdraft%20v0.5/61%20DD1%20v0.5%20Complete,%20no%20doors.pdf>

gives a view.   But it still leaves me with questions about how it is 
working.   What air flows, etc?

Perhaps James can provide more info.

And you mention TWO designs.   What info about the second one? And any 
price info to build either or both?   And economic impact and labor 
savings etc would also be useful.   For these or any other good 
innovations to move forward, we need the "functional" info, please.   
Maybe there are some reports (SNV documents?) that could be made available.

Paul
