So I made a video of how I make a pellet feed grate which I call the Mchannel grate. I looks like a an M from the top and well you get it. I holds about an hr or so maybe two if you let it burn down but I can also add pieces of wood pallets, pine cones, chunks of wood and more. The pellets provide a dense fuel which is helpful in such a small feed. My RMH is a small unit with a single seat and small barrel 30gallon. Hope you enjoy.
