The model amounts to potential-theoretic redistribution of a given initial mass on $\\mathbb{Z}^d$ ($d\\geq 2$) onto the boundary of an (a priori) unknown domain. The latter evolves through sandpile dynamics, and has the property that the mass on the boundary is forced to stay below a prescribed threshold. Since finding the domain is part of the problem, the redistribution process is a discrete model of a free boundary problem, whose continuum limit is yet to be understood.\n  We prove general results concerning our model.
