Woodmizer Sawdust Burner . . . . .

So are the hottubs going to be sent out to the testers too? ??? :D :D :D

Bioman · December 17, 2007, 10:31:06 PM

Yeah, I'll see if can sneak that in without anyone noticing :

slowzuki · December 18, 2007, 10:29:30 AM

I sure would like to give it a shot on my Jetstream but I'd bet one would have to adapt the load controller that runs the biomizer to match power demands to my FD and ID fans.

Ronwood,

We have no plans to make it compatable with other equipment. I'm not sure what it would take to modify the other machines to make it work.

Guys and Gals,

The Biomizer forum has been updated so that you guys can look into the general diccussion board in the testers lounge. I hope that this allows you guys to follow the test of the units more easily.

They are shipping the first units in early January so soon we will get to update on our progress reports. I know we are excited about this test and probably will be little overzealous so bear with us. :

;D

We have interested Bioman in the running of cooling off of the boiler so we may see a push in that direction too. I just hope we do not get Bioman trying to many things at once.

Furby pointed out to me that I was kinda vague on the cooling part. ??? We diccussed this here on this thread.https://forestryforum.com/board/index.php?topic=25996.0

It is about using the boiler to supply the energy for a cooling system. I think with Woodmizer and Biomizer working on it, this will be a dream come true for some of us here on the Forum.

Thanks Doug, I wasn't 100% sure what you were talking about.
Yeah, I can see that feature as being one heck of a selling point!

Bioman · December 20, 2007, 07:04:02 PM

To be a little clearer yet. Wouldn't it be cool to have a unit that supplied power and all you heat/AC needs? A unit that can cool a house is as big or bigger than the heating market.

Farmerdoug, I'm trying my best to ignore that one for now.. :D - my mind is spinning with all of the opportunities here.

farmerdoug · December 23, 2007, 04:34:46 PM

I have noticed a few of you guys over on the Biomizer forum. You have to register to see everything that you guys are allowed to see. We have been talking about a few things. You can post in the testers lounge general diccussion but not start a new topic. If you want to start a new topic you can in the public general diccussion page. I hope you guys will feel free to post with us. If you are not comfortable then ask here and we will take it from there.

Of course I will post updates here too. But the double posting will get old fast so I will not diccuss everything here.

i am a member over there but have not posted am i not seeing everything i could be

farmerdoug · December 23, 2007, 06:55:30 PM

SJ, Can you see the general diccussion in the bio-testing lounge? There are several threads there that you should have access to, if not let me know and I will tell Bioman.

Farmerdoug

Bioman · December 23, 2007, 09:56:47 PM

SJ, it would be helpful if you could let us know if where you can and can't go on the other site. We're trying to make it open yet locked down for security/spam etc. We want to make sure we share as much as is appropriate at this stage of things.

Stump Jumper · December 23, 2007, 10:12:27 PM

bio-testing lounge?

Bioman · December 23, 2007, 11:58:30 PM

Yep, a special section @ www.biomizerforum.com set up for the testers of the burners. We have opened up one discussion group in the 'testing lounge' to the public. Duplicate posting was going to be too cumbersome, and a lot of the things discussed there are not proprietary so we opened the general discussion to everyone. There are other parts of the lounge available only to the testers.

Stump Jumper · December 24, 2007, 07:39:16 AM

thanks bioman got it now . good info i will need as i will be preparing for one in the future

farmerdoug · December 28, 2007, 07:32:02 PM

Guys, We have another member testing the Biomizer too.

Congratulations, Jeff. I am glad to be testing along with you, Electric Al and OKmulch.

I suspect everyone will have to bring a bag of sawdust to the next pig roast. ;D ;D ;D

Sorry Jeff, I just had to tell everyone.

Farmerdoug

Jeff · December 28, 2007, 07:43:49 PM

YUp! :D Good Idea, admission is a bag of dry sawdust. :D

Big thanks to Scott (Bioman) and Tim (Biotim) for asking me to join the team of testers. I'm really honored that Bio-Mizer want the Forestry Forum on board.

Paul_H · December 28, 2007, 07:57:36 PM

Congrats Jeff,I'm looking forward to the reports from you all as things progress.Thanks Scott and Tim!

Here is the link to the Bio-mizer forum,hopefully more of us will join over there and see what is happening.

I've tried to sign up on the Bio-Mizer Forum a few times, and it always give me a "page will not load" error. Maybe somebody there has seen a picture of me and I am below their minimum standards?????

Any help would be appreciated

Greg

farmerdoug · December 29, 2007, 05:35:29 PM

When did you try to signup?

Has anyone else had problems signing up?

Bioman · December 29, 2007, 05:56:35 PM

Greg,

We're looking into it. I'm not aware of anyone else having problems. We have been updating the site today, but I wouldn't think that would stop you from registering.
