Hi all,
I've got a log stove which i'm looking to make some paper bricks to help start the fire initially.
I've got somewhere around 3 tonnes of wood (most seasoned for at least a year some still green-ish).. I'm fine with making the fires, but my partner really struggles (hence the idea of making some paper logs to help her get them started.
I've seen the actual brick makers and all sorts of other tricks to make them, but i've found that 2 buckets (one with holes in the other without) is also quite a sucessfull method (and cheap!))
One thing i was thinking of though is shredding the paper to begin with.. Yes i can just tear the newspaper up, but i saw a video of someone who had welded a wood circular saw blade onto a bit of metal which fit nicely into the drill..
Now back to welding.. i've wanted to get into welding for a long time but have never actually done it before, i know there are different types of welds but i don't really know where to start.. or what type i should go for as a noobie.
Can anyone link me to a useful site or help me out with a recommended brand or model so i can start building this shredder?
Thanks
Matt
