Bruce;

   That was the reason I thought I'd lay it on it's side and "roll"
it... maybe "turn" would have been a better word to use.  Just turn it
to bring the wood inside the drum down onto the coals, maybe one or
two whole revolutions per batch.  On it's side I could keep a fire
banked around and under if on a cradle.

   Just what my feeble thought processes came up with.
