There's a picture that I should have taken snd posted, but alas, I didn't. That picture would show the entry to the feed tube. In the feed tube there's a shelf that does allow air to come in under the "fuel rods." The feed tube is 2" in diameter, rather limiting the amount of fuel that can be put in...

Just about everything I've ever made has been fab'd with no more than hand drills, hack saws, files, and a bench vice. It gets the job done...
