..define "interesting" if other than academically, Jan played a lot of
dirty tricks to get his wood powder running his engine, pressure cooking
his wood in some soup to break down the wood fibers so it could be
ground fine enough to fire reliably on being blown into the cylinders.

..but yeah, this engine smelled nicely, and, you're better off 
with any blowtorch.  ;o)
