oh I could make one, but it will probably be the same size as a small car, and power a house :-)

Some people make rocket stoves that are clad with cob and have an exhaust that goes along a wall and is used to heat a house, so something similar is possible with the right kind of building, planning permission and the like.

But on a more serious note, I was thinking of getting one like that, or a similar one. Anything to increase the power of my wood gas stove burning ability.
