I wasinterested in what we could do starting with nothing. Well, nothing ontop of full fab and machine shop with lots of junk lying around, and ayear plus of reading about eveything "gasifier". So not really "nothing",but nothing purchased directly in preparation to do this. We tried to useonly things readily available in most junkyards.The finished rig is admitedly a bit of a carnival of gasification. Noattempt was made to have it small, tight and discrete. On the contrary,the goal was to have all the systems exposed and exploded for easyteaching and demostration. It is likely a beauty that only a gasificationgeek can appreciate. And maybe John Rinaldi too (aka: Chicken), thetruck's current owner..Pictures of the "finished" truck are below.Demos andExperimentsQuadrafier (4 in 1)Gas-can-o-fireCigifierToiletGMC truckHow to Build aGasifierOne MinuteDesignsOne Hour DesignsOne Day DesignsOne WeekendDesignsDesign Your OwnSizing CalculatorOther Designshttp://whatiamupto.com/gasification/woodgastruck.html (2 of 5) [10/9/2008 08:00:11]
