Womens Thoughts

We are so aware these days of re-cycling that there was no getting away from the Greener websites for Christmas presents this year.  Particularly for the men in the family.

Logmaker was given to my husband as a gift.  A brilliant cylindrical gadget that compresses all types of paper waste, egg shells, dried leaves, ripped pieces of cereal packets, toilet rolls...... You simply wrap a sheet of newspaper, tuck the ends into the bottom and stand down on a firm surface.

Take the plunger and push down inside the tube to make the tucked in ends form a seal.  Now remove the plunger and start to fill with your burnable waste items, compressing as you go.  When you reach one of the fill levels, marked on the plunger, eject the newspaper log by holding the newspaper and using the plunger to force it away from the tube.
Now twist the ends together or tuck them in.  Your paper log is ready to burn straight away, no wetting or waiting.  They burn really well and quite slowly on the log burner.  A good buy and keeps the men amused!  http://logmaker.org.uk/
