i came up with this becuase I cannot use a normal scuttle with my hand fed furnace, due to the spout not being long enough, this is only a 4 gallon pail, all I had lieing around, which will hold a 40 pound bag of nut rounded up, I used a piece of black 6 inch chimney pipe I had extra and cut it to this design, I think it will work perfect, better than shoveling out of the bag into the stove
