 Thanks so much for all the help!

 Thanks, if they know it burns up the closed tube, I believe them, I can understand why, with the air coming in from the end it would ventilate any tube big enough to hold a lot of wood... makes sense. SO... how long a feed tube is safe max? I'm thinking I need a six inch rmh for my garage, what's safe ?

I am planning several rocket burners for different things. My question is, has a long feed tube been tried with a cap? Feed into the burn chamber from above, fire distance correct from secondary combustion chamber,  but long tube and cap it, let the air in like a tunnel feed type thing?  Wouldn't the cap let longer material be used without being able to chimney?  I've seen all the arguments for short feeds and understand, like the idea of slanting a long tube both for ease of loading and "flow" of material into the fire.   Still makes me think a longer time between loading could be achieved by capping the tube...   Newbie here, just starting to play with this, you don't have to be gentle... LOL
