Home-made wood burner

Post by matthopkins »

Thought some of the members would like to see this. A short vid of my home-made wood-burner for my liveaboard boat that im due to move onto full time come 2015.
Any comments on design or possible changes would be gladly received.
Regards Matt.

Looks realy nice. As a DIY welder myself I made one out of old gas bottle and a pile of junk from behind the garage.

Hi there Chaps

Here is my Home made wood stove, Like nothing you will find.

some perks:
80 to 90% eff
heats water, and if the power is lost the unit is intrinsically safe, and will not boil ! all safety devices fail safe and in the unit, no need for UPS or fance heat loss plumbing.
vertyly no ash

bla bla bla really quite good I think , have a look at it if you want.
