Has anyone ever heard of soaking sawdust in white spirits before a sawdust
firing? Is this mineral spirits? Could you use charcoal lighter fluild? What
precautions would you then need to handle the firing? Does anyone think this
would help a sawdust firing? Paulaclay@AOL.com Paula Sibrack, Sherman, CT
