Or you could get Superman to reverse the rotation of the earth. Somehow that turns back time. Really. I saw it in a movie. I don’t know it it’s the same with movies but my mother used to insist that if it’s on TV it has to be true. That was a rule.

Well happy birthday Koen.
You made it! 60 y.o.
My Nurse wife says doing that then you are most likely good for another 10 years.
I’m 69, soon to be 70. She appears to be correct.
I’ll leave it up to “others” to comment about the great-beyond, 70.
You coming off of covid nice of you to mask up and keep any possible lingering viruses to yourself. No. It seems that wine alcohol does not kill them.

Steve if you had as hard working of a life as my dad I think you’ll still be splitting logs at 80. Dad’s 72 and still outdoing the guys left in Detail.

There is software for viewing and analysing the thermal scans i made from the first run gasifier, had not the time yet to decipher them into jpeg’s.
Next batch off pictures will be the teardown for inspection before modifications to be made.
How the fuel went from hopper into the grate zone.
Since i had no grate shaker, it kinda clogged up, burned a cavity just under the choke plate.
Let me upload and then your opinions …
