Wood Gas/Alternative fuels.

I've always thought that wood pellets would make a great fuel source for both a wood gas or a steam engine motorcycle. You could burn pellets with pellets in a small combustible chamber. Could easily run a small engine for a small period of time as you would need to replace the inner wood pellets regularly, where as the outer fire could be fed by a hopper. I'm working on a steam engine design where the steam coil sits inside a wood pellet stove. Still studying the old Stanley engine right now and making my modifications. I really want to build a small steam car next year!
 
I would like a wood burning pot-belly stove engine for my next build. I've got a lot of eucalyptus stacked in my backyard......free fuel! ;)
