Except for highly talented people with way too much spare time you buy
the pellets.  And the same fireplace shop that sells the pellets sells,
you guessed it, the stove.  And the price for all this, let's just say
you had better be seated first.

My wife saw one at a home show one time and thought it was a neat idea,
untill we found out that it would cost at least $2000 for the stove (and
the legs, and the fire safe pad, and the piping, and...)

You could try to find a Wooden Rabbit. The process then is automated.

You don't make then Pellapedes do. They are a large grub about the
diameter of your finger. The feed on wet newsprint and produce the
pellets. This is the best use I have found for the printed media and it
also keeps my feet warm.

Spamming at last because *we* sell Pellapede eggs for hatching and
farming.

Dear Brian:

No wonder that your wife has lost interest, at US$ 2000
I would also rather get cold ankles.....

My parents had a pellet stove in there cabin, it worked well, but
sometimes the worm drive unit would clog.  Plus, if the power went out,
you had to fire up the generator to power the fan and feed unit.  They're
efficient, and put out alot of heat, so if you use em for a sole heat
source, and you have to buy firewood, then you might save some $ over many
years, if you have your own firewood, get a good woodburning stove.
