I read something a few years ago that the human race had exceeded critical mass therefore one child per person would still cause the population to grow! So the problem is not one for the future but now but no one wants to admit it!

that and some nice big end shells that dont last! had my big end done at at about 80k high speck bolts and old type shells put in cost £500 but cheaper than the risk of blown engine! the old shells looked more like they had done 200k!(think the bolts where the same part as from the petrol engine and not upto the strain so snapped from big end vibration before it could be heard! and no3 had a problem from oil starvation so the shells wear quicker!)or so im lead to believe

As in i can use it i don't want to waist time making something that is of no use at all! If i can bbq a few bits for myself and family thats good enough for me! -

Ok im thinking of giving this a try but have a few questions! 1) can i make usable charcoal from softwood as i have a load of dry off cut 4 x 2 from gate making? 2) i understand how the double barrel method works as your using a gravity 1 way valve to let out burnable gas but not letting oxygen/fire in but how do you achieve this with the horizontal barrel method? 3) is there a reason why you couldn't make one square rather than round as i think we have a load of tanks and plate at work that are spare?
