Ok, so I'm thinking about preheating the air. Let me explain.

The stove would be two walled. The outer wall will have air holes at the top only, while the inner walls have them at the bottom, forcing the air to be pulled around the heated inner wall once it is going.

Downside is that it makes this a top loader only.

Upside is... It lets us know if Raven has finally lost his mind? Am I totally out in left field?
