Doug, (and I sent this to the Stoves List because fuel preparation
is of interests to them also.)
I too am quite interested in this. I saw it some years ago when I did
not have conditions to proceed. Now I would like to build one and see
it put into action. Any further info and comments on experiences would
be appreciated.
A major related issue is the feeding of the sticks. An angled trough
with gravity helping the flow down to a "stopper" could help.
For straight fuels (such as reeds and non-branching shafts such as
bamboo and young poplar, pine etc) this could be really a great
assist. The gnarly bifurcating branches of many trees present some
difficulties (and opportunities to find solutions!!).

Hi Doug
I was interested in building your Chip Guillotine:

And I was wondering if you had anymore insight/advice in regards to this?
Happy New Year,

thoughts returned to the rapid growing coppice woods and possibly
woody stems of many invasive species. With the help of a mate doing
most of the cutting up, I have coppice Poplar, and Privet hedging
stems to gasify, with the hope that we can recover more than the 57g
of char with iron attached from 25kg of "normal" wood blocks.
