LPelletG Stove

The LPelletG stove is essentially a pellet stove, crossbred with a catapult. Pilot light is initiated by LPG, then either maintained that way or if you choose so by wood.

The pellets are thin-walled cannisters of natural gas, fired into the stove from across the room at regular intervals. I'd buy one just for the romance of sitting around the fire at night with my sweetheart, my arm around her shoulders, my drink in my other hand, spilling little splashes as she jumps each time a tiny cannister of natural gas goes off with a tiny boom.

Is this OK? Did I steal or did - Firelog_20Catapult
- cannistering the LPG make it OK ? Waiting for your review and disposition. [normzone, Feb 25 2006]

       Acknowledged. Nicely done, turning a poorly thought out suggestion into a potentially functional plan+

       Burning natural gas.

       [jellydoughnut], apparently there's a new take on burning natural gas (link). Although when we were teens it was nitrogen tri-iodide.

       If this was outside, Pyro Gel dipped canisters would make a beautiful fiery arc in night.

       Churning this one purely for the display of rage in the lowermost link ...

       What about inversing the idea, and crossing the Pellet Stove with the Flaming Trebuchet Catapult?   

       In case of societal collapse, break glass (the glass on the front of the stove), then pour in your pellets, and fire them off at marauding bandits who come by to steal your food. Can make for a fiery last stand.
