Setting my chimney on here cuts my time in more than half, I guess it's like a turbo draw on air?

Looks like a giant venturi to me! Be careful of hot coals!

Stupid question - how did you come to discover this technique?

 

[Bob Mann]

LOL, nice!

I have that exact same fireplace (or one very close). I gotta try that one time!
