Kingsford charcoal got its start from using left over wood from making cars. Thanks History channel.

It all started in 1919 when Edward G. Kingsford helped Henry Ford procure a stretch of timberland to supply wood for his auto plants. Mr. Ford wondered if all the wood waste generated by his sawmill and plants could be put to better use, and found his answer in a new process for pressing blocks of reconstituted char.

When I was a kid we had some kind of electrified air filter that would zap the dust particles like a bug zapper. I've never seen one anywhere else. It was noisy AF which is probably why it didn't catch on.


Electrostatic air filter. I actually started a side company years ago selling them.
