Title: wood burning stove in my shed
Post by: cacran on June 10, 2009, 22:18:45
I would love to fit a wood burning stove in my shed. I keep looking for one that is going cheap or maybe from freecycle. Is there any way of making one? ??? ???

Was it with the drum of a washing machine, perhaps? :-\

Bought the pot-belly from ebay for about £60 and built the chimbly myself.

Thanks for the compliments.  If it's for boiling water a Kelly Kettle (http://www.kellykettle.com/) is very efficient, and you can make a Rocket Stove (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=797446823830833401).
