Paper Log Production Version II
There was some feedback from the large version of the Paper
Log Maker that not everyone had the wood working skill or time to make a
form. So this new smaller version has been produced using recycled items.
You'll need paper and card to make the fuel and a couple of
plastic punnets (the things you get fruit in are perfect)
 |
Just as with the large log maker you need to soak the
paper and card in water. To speed up the time it takes for the paper to
go mushy add hot water. This also makes the whole thing more pleasant. |
 |
Two punnets were stacked together to produce a form and
as with the large log maker paper twists and much were added. |
 |
Kneading the paper forced out a lot of the water. At
this stage you'd again add sawdust or coal dust and then add the top
layer of paper. |
 |
In this log only paper was used and due to the size it
was possible to squeeze a surprising amount of water out by hand hence
the round shape. Being smaller this log dried much fast than the larger
one. |
