Or even What are the Top 10 affordable (best budget, best cheap, or even best expensive!!!) Cardboard Log Maker available? Etc. I would like to know if anyone has worked out the energy of what one of these produces. One day I might get round to working this out by lighting one under a pan of water and working out the BTU. According to Phil after a while the water in the barrels can start to smell bad. "To solve the problem I just add a little pine cleaner to the water -- it not only kills any mosquito larvae but also keeps my hands clean, too." You will then be able to expel all the water using the handle provided which will automatically remove all the water, the extracted water can be collected below the press for reuse.

Fill the watering can with water. Then pour the water on the cardboard so that it is wet enough to be pliable, but not completely soaked. That's what Phil Orlowski wondered, and he did something about it. He modified a small hydraulic press to convert cardboard -- and other household paper waste -- into "logs" for his wood stoves. I’ve seen ‘devices’ you can buy that makes ‘newspaper logs’, but they never seem efficient, require you to pre-shred, take way too much time and the logs are not very solid.
