    Slabs coaling up between burn cycles ..man there is some serious heat. 36 wide 54 deep.
    I figured it out I can get 1000 lbs of slabs in there. How's that for Dragon action ?

    More Dragon action . Oak slabs burn hot.
    Water was going from 80f to 150f at -13f
    It was pulling hard . Didn't take long to hit 150f .. that's a 6 foot extention. I had the cap on to slow things down .. but I'm going to need choke off on fans to stop wood wasting.
