The problem with burning a fire in the middle of a teepee is that because the walls are at an almost vertical angle and the roof is pretty high, most of the heat from a fire in the middle will be wasted.

You just need a hollowed out chamber under the floor for a fire, with several outlets leading to several places on the floor (but not near the centre), and a pipe from the outside leading to the central chamber from underneath.

But this isn't as fun as watching the burning embers and dancing flames of a fire. In fact, that was what distracted me from further developing my idea.

So something a bit like a roman hypocaust (sp?)?
But yeah, watching firey sparks is groovy.
And on that note I'm off to bed!
