The test boil went really well! Took a bit to get the fire going and stay lit. It would end up going out whenever we would shut the door, so David drilled some holes in the front, right below the door, to see if that would help. It seemed to do the trick so he has plans to improve the air flow with a few more cuts and mounting a saw blade. It'll make more sense when he finishes it and I can post some pictures (it'll be based off of a vent on a grill to give you an idea). With the hot water David was able to scrub the pans and get most of the debris and dirt out. We'll do a little finer cleaning right before our first boil of sap, which we're hoping will be next weekend.
