I have been wanting a Briquette Maker for a while, had them on my Trade Me Wish list - ie every time one comes on sale in Trade Me I would know about it.I bidded on one last week - it sold for $70.00. This morning I WON one for $15.00.
YIPPIEEEEEEEEEE YIPPIEEEEEEEEEE
Now I just need to get it in my hot little hands, - wait for a fine day (like today) and I get to play with newspaper & water to make paper bricks for the fire. I really doubt this will ever feel like a chore.
We have a friend who uses his concrete mixer to mix the water & newspaper & then dries the bricks in their very own hot houses all the old cars on his property -
I doubt Brent will let me dry them in his treasures in our back yard. HAHAHA
ANd what a BARGAIN $15.00
We get heaps of newspaper as people give it to me for the kittens. - the bricks are meant to burn for about 1 hour & give off a good heat. - Cheap heating aye











Caro with her litter,we always have a litter of kittens in our home!
