 Here is a post from Tony Vovers which was too big with the pictures
so I have resized them and renamed them to reflect how they were
originally embedded.

>> Just FYI these photo of sawdust rocket stove in action at a school in Indonesia.
>> These stoves were used for 5-6 years daily use.
>> Typically 4 used in a row for large meal prep.
>>
>> Despite reasonably clean burn low/no visible smoke the exposure of the staff, the heavy maintenance and the condition of the stoves led to decision to remove from service in favor of LPG about 1.5 years ago.
>> In a well ventilated area with enough space around it a stove like this can work well and reliably even with less than perfect fuel with very low visible smoke.
>>
>> Simple rocket shape formed with removable pipes then the fire created at the root or corner of the "L"
>> It burns about 3 hours.
>> A top cover to limit sparks and rest the pots.
>> The sawdust used was residue from a bamboo factory so essentially free, the borax treated material was still a small problem for ash disposal due to the salt content.
>> The moisture content I am guessing to be quite high.
