This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the iron badge in Rocket.

This BB requires you to build a rocket mass heater experiments in heating a home with extremely little wood!

Minimum requirements:
 - must be a safe rocket mass heater (ideally uses a J-tube design)
 - must heat a home with 1/8th the wood of a similar style house in your region

To get certified for this Badge Bit you must provide proof of the following:
  - 5 pics of the build of the rocket mass heater in progress
  - 3 pics of completed rocket mass heater product
       o overview picture
       o j-tube (preferably)
       o exhaust outlet
  - 2 minute video of starting the fire and proving there are no smoke leaks
     - show the mass of wood that is being burned and record the temperature of the house over time
 
First, you drop a couch from the plane, THEN you surf it. Here, take this tiny ad with you:
