Google search for magic heat came up with a pot vaporizer, I think I will try one of those and give a review on it. :cheese:

I have two air damper controls in the door of my Allnighter that do a good job of air control. Most of my wood...both hard and soft seasons for about six months...then it is burned. I cut in the late winter and early spring then stack it for the coming heating season. I have been burning wood for nearly 50 years and havn't set my chimney on fire yet. I make sure the fire gets enough air even when I set it up for an all night burn. Have plenty of coals for a restart in the early am. Burning wood is more of an art then a science...and will do as it should if you take the time to play it right. Some are too lazy or cheap to clean their chimney on a regular basis...but if done it saves on turning their home into a pile of charcoal... I burn even the tree branches...down to about 1 inch in size. The rest of the brush I chip with my chipper at some point during the year...and use the chips for mulch. I have my own 40 acre wood lot. And yes I know...a modern stove will burn cleaner and use alittle less wood...but ya know...unless I am bothering a neigbor...which I'm not cos I live in the country...I plan to do it my way till I buy the farm.
