Finally found a chance to work on the wood gasifier proof of concept I started in the winter. I was able to get a weak flare on the exhaust end which will ultimately feed the generator, but on the air intake side I was able to get a very nice flare. The gas from this flare is probably way to dirty to run the generator without gumming it up, so I'll have to keep tweaking things until I can get the exhaust gas side to have better pressure. Definitely a took a step closer to mining Bitcoin with wood today though.

The plan for this first gasifier is to run an S9 at 980w by powering a 1.2kw generator with wood gas. It's built from mostly stuff I already had and about $60 in additional parts.

The next big adjustments will be to try high temperature silicone as a sealant and to adjust the shaker grate to catch more of the incoming air. Right now I think too much is blowing over the top of the fuel and not enough at the heart of the burn.

Yes! I started off reading that and watching a bunch of YouTube videos. Definitely a good place to start for anyone wanting to build a gasifier.

Cool, it's on my reading list if I ever get a lazy day 🤣🤣
