Yeah this is what I do but not on this scale but should try to get something like this done on a scale. I use wood shavings from the chainsaw then put them in a cat litter bucket, filled a bunch of these condiment cups or dixies and wax on top. If they work for the start, Id just need to make enough for the season and then store them away. Plenty of fat wood too along with the poplar supply that is so easy to split its hardly a job to do. Id just like to have a fire going while working in my garage shop on these things and not have a chill!
