[Stoves] Foot powered Bellows

[Peter Singfield]

Not when you consider that a foot driven bellows could be designed to be
built in the 3rd world environments thus creating extra work for some people.

I expected AD Karve to contribute a design??

These could be made from salvaged tin cans -- bamboo -- little leather or
rubberized cloth.

A TEG driven fan is all import -- which we term - -requiring foreign exchange.

Not a problem for modern civilizations of mankind that have unlimited
credit for deficit spending -- but a major hurdle for we here in 3rd world
countries.
