Title: Retrol EngineDIYshop SE-03 Vertical Steam Engine Plant Wood Fired!
Post by: Jim Dobson on January 14, 2026, 09:53:38 PM
I cut some small well seasoned Aussie eucalyptus hardwood into the correct size to get into the firebox and a small amount of spirits to get the wood alight. The smell out of the chimney was delightful.
After it all burnt down to ash, I was able to suck it out with a small car vacuum cleaner......all in all, it worked quite well!
