Vanilla Burner Leech? viewtopic.php?f=92&t=14634

I'm actually thinking that furnace burner leech would be a better idea than self fuelling burner drills. that way you wouldn't need that boiler trickery to fuel your burner inserters removing iron plates from furnaces.

Can be done with 2 burner mines already. Have both burner mines feed eachother (outputs directly pointed at the other mine), then have some burner inserters extract the surplus. It's slightly more efficient then Brathahn's solution below since the pair of mines doesn't require the inserter to self-feed.

Creative use of the boiler there Bra.
