    Pretty cool.

    Do you still make those newsprint bricks to burn?

    Would if I could. Last couple batches were primarily made from shredded printer paper from a couple interlock shops that I took care of. Now that I no longer work for that company, the material isn’t available. And.. we stopped getting a smaller newsprint like publication called The Merchandizer. That was a weekly thing and it stopped about a year ago.
