    I'm still pretty skeptical about Andrea Rossi's 'secret catalyst' - but if this thing were ever to succeed in a properly-conducted test, we might be looking at a serious contender for replacing oil as our primary energy source.

    I'm wondering about providing power to the Coronet Consort woodworking machine with a steam engine: here's one using a converted lawnmower engine - what do you think?

    Here's another possibility for the shelter over the earth oven, as used for the Steiner school in Stroud (ours would be smaller scale of course!).

    Seeing this, I'm inspired to argue for a lightweight geodesic structure to go over the earth oven. I reckon we can make one with pallet timber, and cover it with either tarpaulin or timber shingles (or even wattle and daub). This link shows the initial dome construction: then go here to see the bales and adobe going on: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2NvnhLPBVM&feature=related PS, can anyone show this to Chris? Simon? Keith?

    The Mexicans must know what they're doing with adobe - they've been using it for thousands of years!

    In trying to track down the 'turbo' rocket stove I mentioned (the one with the fan) I came across this: it might be quicker and easier to make, and longer-lastng (especially if we go one step further and mortar the bricks together), than one made from an olive oil tin - and I'm pretty sure we've already got enough adobe mix available.
