Here GeorgeM. is a better link to that system with audio and without the streaming side bar ads:

This was my first system posted up on the topic “YouTube Small systems Builds” began in Jun '22 in the Small Engines section.

It is actually a pre-made charcoal system. Lacks a defined thermal-chemical reduction zone/area to be ever a good true raw wood gasifier.  
150+ posts and responses on that topic.
