Paper Logmaker recycles for Free Fuel

The Paper Logmaker is one of the most simple and effective products we have reviewed. The paper logmaker is made up of two parts a plastic tube and a plastic plunger. All you need to do to make your logs is place a newspaper outside the outer tube and then using small amounts at a time push waste paper down inside the tube with the plunger. Finally you seal both ends and you have a log. It really is that simple.

At a time when fuel prices are continuing to increase the Paper Logmaker is a great way to recycle your paper for fuel and also save money. A good time to make your logs would be on a cold evening as you soon get warm forcing paper into the tube to make it as compact as possible. Although many of us recycle our paper there is still a tremendous amount going into landfill so using the Paper Logmaker reduces this waste.

You can use garden waste such as twigs and leaves but we found the most effective sources to be junk mail and newspapers pushing one page at a time into the paper logmaker and the upside is you do not need water like some logmakers. Our logs burned for an average of just over 30 minutes. Although burning the paper logs gives off Co2 the makers claim that if the waste paper went to landfill it would create Methane which is 23 times more harmfull.

If you are going to purchase one make sure it is the model made from 100% recycled plastic. The Paper Logamaker is a great birthday or Christmas gift for friends that have wood burning stoves or open fires.
