I guess it’s like that. Dakota been doing good i thought, driving it to work every day. On gas because work is only 5 miles one way. Now when i really want to go somewhere it throws a fit.

I would also like to join you at the meeting, well, if that were the case, I fired up the gasifier on the Fergi this morning and sawed wood with the Villager electric saw, then with the circular saw and ran the wood splitter, …
I wish you to have a good time.

I’m sorry that I wasn’t able to make it back up early enough to say goodbye to everyone this morning. But the time I was able to finally get away from the house it seems like everyone already headed out.

we made it home and unloaded without incident.
My truck sitting int he driveway on a trailer when we got in. Transmission quit on the way up and we had a friend bring us another truck and take this one home for us. Now we’ll have to figure out what’s wrong with it.
Thanks to everyone for the efforts.
Billy
PS, missed seeing a lot of you guys.

Thank you Thomas and all the good folks that helped with the get together . I really enjoyed the event and saw places in KY and TN I have never seen before.
While packing up at home I tried to estimate my fuel wood so that I would run out just before I got home . ( years past I have been hauling too much back home .)
The round trip was 615 miles. On the way back I filled the hopper before leaving camp and two more fuelings before home . The last fueling traveling home I used all the wood and was 150 miles from home . This is kinda what I had planed so I could experiment hybirding the last 150 miles. The last hopper should have run me about 75-80 miles before running out. Being on the big road ( interstate ) made it very easy to hybrid. I played and controlled the wood gas /gasoline ratio to where I ran out of fuel just as we reached home. .
Thanks again Kentucky group

For anyone who was wanting to attend this year, please try and make it a priority for next. @TheIrishEngineer located a nice facility with very accommodating hosts, the food was wonderful as always…thank you Rhonda and crew, I need to learn to eat that well at home, to @BillyAlabama for bringing, and continually repopping, the craziest corn popper I’ve ever seen, to @Chris for ordering shirts and leading the sing along, to @Ron_L who was kind enough to give me a jump, so I’m not the only one still there, and of course @Wayne for developing the WK gasifier and sharing his revolutionary design with us. Also my apologies to the other organizers who I am failing to mention, I know there are many more.
Wood gas certainly attracts some wonderful people.

Thanks to everyones feedback. I seem to have a seizable list of things I want to try accomplishing by next meetup. But that’s not a bad thing. Busy hands keep the mind active
