Operate a wood stove or RMH for an hour - PEM BB woodheat.sand.operateheater

This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEM curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the Sand badge in Wood Heat.

Operating a wood burning contraption is a bit more hands-on that using a gas furnace.  Let's get some practice with wood heat!

You may be able to also get a BB in the PEP Rocket badge for this work as well.
