I gonna get me a newspaper brickmaker which is cool as i'm to open up a chimney in the house to get some quick localised heat without resorting to eating up the oil supply.

ebay item number 320311009474 shows the one i'm after.

Hi Dan, This was the model we was gonna get if Pete's model didn't work. You won't have anywhere near the same force as with Pete's model, the Hydraulics really squeeeeze that water out.

I certainly haven't noticed ash settling in the surrounding area.

I don't have any idea just how well they'd burn in an open fire, Dan. Would it not be possible for you to have a multi-burner installed? Yep, they're expensive initially but they are way, way more efficient than an open fire.

The brickette maker isn't that expensive, so what have you to lose? You could always use them in BBQs or Chimineas too.
