This gets me a full 24 hours of heavy burning. Longer in the shoulder season.

Wife hates it, but is what I'll use until she comes up with a better solution (she wants me to use a small ash bucket with splits vertically-no joke).

Rack itself is made out of one 2x4 and then painted flat black. Original paint is about 3 years old and still holding up OK,

the little tray is made of a scrap of OSB and some scap fiberboard (pressed wood) trim from a kitchen job I did a while ago and the bottom. I did a real crappy job of assembling the bottom tray. I had some 12x12 tile left over and thought that I measured the OSB to fit four squares in it. Measured once and cut once. Should have measured twice because the tiles didn't fit, and I tried to cram it in anyway. that cramming screwed up the trim around the edges, but oh well...

Well gee whiz Danno. That ash bucket is not such a bad idea. Humor her.

three trips to fill the stove just didn't sound like fun to me.
 
But just think of all the wonderful exercise you can get!
