- With the size of the new shop there is just no way we can afford to could keep heating with gas. So, in part 2, we finish building a giant wood burning stove so we will be able to heat our shop for free!

I am an HVAC tech. Although I would have designed the heat exchanger portion differently (the duct on top of the heater) I don’t see anything wrong with this woodstove. It is definitely not going to fall apart for decades. I’d venture to say it’s a lifetime build. Yeah the door is a little strange. It works perfectly. I like it. Good work!
I like construction of your burner. It isn’t over engineered but it looks effective and efficient!
Nice explanation of why you did what you did! I like the overall design and it will make heat for sure, pallet wood will burn faster than logs but if you have a big supply, problem solved. Great job Julie and Anthony!!
I think 3-4 floors of their building is packed full of pallet wood if I remember correctly from the video where they toured the building when they first bought it.
And its got a blower😂😂😂✌️
Over the years my Dad and I have built four wood stoves and have not used brick but in one and the three with out have heated better than that one this last build we pushed the air out across the front and out under door and the ash pan we use a old ash shovel with a 3ft handle, oh and fan is vented through the wall from other room for noise control 😂 but hey I like where you are going with your stove . Oh we did add a 16 inch fan to wall to blow across top of stove and pipe to catch more heat .
I like it you did a good job on the stove. Your grandpa would be very proud of the man you have become and the skills that you have learned all on your own .
I hope so!
Ya did it right. My dad use to build em a similar way. He built a few for the neighbors as well as several for his garage. He was a Boiler guy all his life so you, being your first build did a hellofa job.
Pretty cool project. I prefer to burn wood or coal on top of a grate with the air vents below the grate for more efficient combustion, I’m interested to see how this works for you, big space to heat
I fill pretty good about it.
Back about 1960-61 I was a member of the Radicals Rod & Custom club. We rented a garage not too far from yours. One winter we built a stove out of a 55 gal drum. We arranged for oil to drip slowly onto a spade inside the drum. We burned old engine oil. Man, that thing put out a lot of heat! My memory is a little fuzzy but I believe parts of it glowed red. The spade did for sure. Actually the bitter winters were one of the reasons I left Kansas.
That's fun! I don't think I have heard of that club before!
There were several clubs in those days: The IchiBans, the Cheyboygans, The Rickshaws - I was a member for awhile (long story) and others. The Radicals were the cream of the crop. You can tell that many of the young men were recently returned from serving in Korea and Japan. @@HardCoreFab
Very cool stove love your work
Thanks 👍
I was scrolling and saw this, but I decided I needed to watch pt1 first. It's a good thing I did. I was enjoying the video until you answered comments @9:30 all the way up to 26:12. It's your shop, your materials, your labor, and your skills. If you are good with it, then it's all good. GREAT INFORMATIVE VIDEO.
I don't care what any of the haters say. I really like your design on that stove, and I'm pretty sure it's gonna work out just fine. Worst case scenario, you find out that you need to do a little bit of fine tuning on it, which is the exact definition of trial and error! The only thing I might have done is create a decent sized cook surface on the top, but hey, you do you, brother! Love your channel and very much enjoy your content!
Thanks man!
A damper is to control the fire and conserve fuel while getting the same amount of heat. Every stove should be able to work just f8ne without one.
Yes it’s just a jet engine at this point. At least the pipe is heavy enough to not burn through. But the temp of that pipe will be an issue as it leaves the building. Dangerous for sure. 🙏 they stay safe.
Yes, that stove has thick enough steel to last through many years of burn cycles, fire brick will protect the bottom but decreases the amount of room inside the stove, I plan to use something thinner. The supports look plenty sturdy, 1/2" steel won't be easily weakened by much.
Love the design fire brick keeps heat in the stove you want it in your shop! I think that bad boy will cook you out of there gonna go through alot of wood with that beast nice job
I just don't why it wouldn't work.
You made it for you not us. Looks good. Have fun.👍👍👍
Excellent design and build sir ! But the best and most astonishing part of this vid is the fact that you used self drilling screws to bring the outer skin into place that ACTUALLY drilled !!!!! 😆😆😆😁😁
They where old used ones LOL
So cool! Love the door.
Amazing thought process on what you’re doing 😊
I had a stove almost exactly like that but with a side door. Oilfield welders made it for me. I installed a drip like to feed used oil onto my wood. Wood lasted twice as long.
Very cool! We just don't end up with much oil
Very nice work! I know that fires start and burn differently based on location. I worked in Colorado for 30 years and burning required different circumstances from here in Michigan, and what I see people in Pennsylvania go through. Different fundamental designs vary around the world I'm sure, so we are glad you answered those questions. Great job.
Good job buddy love it
Here in Australia, we don't get much below 5 or so degrees Celsius mostly late night early morning, still like a fire place with burning wood,not gas (propane gas) thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones
Man that would be nice! Thanks for watching!
Nice nice job.be proud 😊
It turned out sweet. What a great job 👍👍
Thanks 👍
Hey it really looks good
Blower motors put out more air with a smaller outlet, they are designed to work with the restriction of ducting. Test it out - hook up the fan, put an amp meter on one of the wires, flick it on, and block the outlet gradually more and more while watching the amp gauge. Amps go up to data plate rating, you are there. You'll notice a substantial increase in air flow.
I'll play with that some when I hook it up
Aewsome Wood pallet burner
Pretty cool anthony.. 👍😎💯
Thanks man!
Great looking wood burner stove 😊👍
Thanks 👍
I like it. 😎👍
I think that you have a good heater there I have been around stoves for the better part of my life. Small to large even one that was huge 5'x5'x3' with a 14"chimney burnt 4 pallets at a time no flue damper and the intake vent was on the top at the back recommended clearance was 4' all the way around, we got some serious heat off of it but was a huge shop 80x110. I don't know how cold it got there yesterday but it was 22 and windy hear in Sidney NE. And we still have 2 month to go. Looks good hope to see it making heat sometime.
Yeah we did get cold too but I'm holding out hope 😆
Cool build--I really liked the heat shroud/fin system. I bet the air soaks up a lot of heat going over the fire box like that. How do you like the bottom hinged door? I've never seen that design. I'm kicking around the idea of building a smaller stove for a "she shed" my fiance is putting together. It would be nice to have some glass on the door too--I think it would add to the coziness of the building. I was thinking to weld up a box, but I think I should be looking for a large diameter steel pipe. I had a hookup for an old chlorine cylinder called a "ton". But that sucker is a solid 1/2" thick, and at least 3' in diameter--and about 12 feet long. Thanks for the informative vid. You had some neat tricks. The table cut hinges really give it a professional touch.
The weather turned nice about the time I got it done so I haven't used it yet. So I guess it will be fall now before I get to fire it up. Thanks for watching!
I think you're doing an excellent job on the stove. Keep it up, looks awesome. It is definitely huge. I don't think you need firebrick like you dressed in earlier. I think that tank is heavy gauge enough. Where you won't up to worry about it. When I'll tell you this. You could stoke that fire to probably last old day and into the night. I did a good job. I like it.
Thank you!
I Think it looks great!👍🏻 It will work just fine. If I was building one I would use your idea’s.
Thank you!
❤ THE SEMIE STOVE !!! ... .. . 😮😅😊 ... .. .
Hey Anthony,
I am interested in how well the stove works as I will be building one of my own during the coming summer.
I will not need the size you have but I want the durability.
I suspect yours will serve you well in the new shop.
Also looking forward to the C 50 and trailer build.
See ya in the funnies
You'll see the C50 again next week!
That's a great looking shop heater, first I've seen of that design. Would it be possible to add a system to burn waste oil in addition to wood? Love the channel guys, keep up all the good work.👍🔥🔥
Yes, absolutely, we just don't get much waste oil.
@@HardCoreFab
That's good, sometimes it can be a pain to dispose of old oil 👍
Firebrick and or refractory are only necessary when the metal shell material is not sufficient for the combustion temperature. 3/16” thick carbon steel is more than sufficient for wood fires. With a hot shell design you will get maximum heat transfer surface. Provide hot surface personal protection!
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys, beautiful heater guys, you could push it out side and test it and also let burn off all the time smell that you don't need in your new shop, just saying 😉.
Pour used bacon grease in the bottom before piling wood in your heater, everyone will be hungry all day and it seasons the bottom.
Hmmmm bacon!!!
Love your show...can't go wrong with bacon...😂
Lite a fire in it while it is outside. This will allow the paint to do what it does without stinking up the shop
Nice stove
Thank you!
Hello from Siesta Key Florida
Hello back at you from KS
do you plan to have a damper? I've built several of these types of heaters. Ive built them with tubes and with jackets like your and I see the same 5 years goes by and you are either capping or replacing the tubes. I've just built 2 barrel stoves using stainless steel barrels have a access to some real cheap. I also found using muffler tube works pretty well or drill pipe if I can get it in the right dia. Now I'm building one for my big shop our of a 250 gallon LP tank. Looks great
saw when you was building the stove and my thought was man that will eat the wood and where would you get it from?
Then when you was showing your new building and all the bins of wood on the floors I know you wouldn't need to look for wood for a lot of years.
That stove should out last your grand kids ( when you get that old) , you may need it yet this year as here in northern Illinois we had a high of 75-80 yesterday and today we had a dusting of snow and a high in the low 30's . get it moved and set to load and fire just in case.
Have a good one.
We're 3 grand kids deep now. Lol. Thanks for watching.
In my old house in Michigan I had a big wood furnace in the basement. It has a draft blower, and it is modulated by a thermostat in the living room . There is a pallet recycle business in town where I would buy the reject pallet runners for $5.00 a square stack which was about 5 foot tall. It would last about 2 weeks. Couldn't get any cheaper that that to heat the house .
That's what I'm talking about! Even better here the reject stuff is free. I wish I could do something like that at home!
That Molten glue works very well at hold the metal together.
Lol that it does!
Seem to turn out good. Still hoping dont need to fire it up till next year.
Me too!
That's Hot!
Lol
I like your stove so far. I don't know if it would help you or not but I have always gone over rough fabbed metal with mineral spirits or acetone in the spray gun and spray the metal and let it dry before I paint it and the paint stands up to a lot of abuse before it comes off or looks bad. Maybe you can do that before you paint sometime and see how it works for you.
I'll try that at some point
I would have came off that back plate where the blower goes with about 2 ft of a square steel tubing to mount the blower on so it would last a lot longer...just my 2 cents.
We'll see how it goes that may e d up being a thing.
A lite smack with a hammer will compress the spot welds and tighten up the gaps for stitch welds.
Great build just make sure u discuss this unit with your Commercial Property insurance provider (broker) and Company ....other than that it looks great👍🏼🇨🇦
My who? LOL
@@HardCoreFab lol the insurance guy.... unless you don't carry insurance on your me building lol
we have potbelly stove paint here in australia at most hardware stores, it lasts for years on applications like yours
Hmm never heard of it (probably here too) so I did car guy stuff 😆
😄@@HardCoreFab
Great video guys thanks for sharing with us all
Thanks for watching!
Isnt it better to install it now before the cold weather, and IF the cold strikes and you have to work at the new shop....⁉️
And if you do everything now maite be easier to install the rest of the stack, and also plan the rest of the shop around it or the author way around.....🤔🤔🤔🫣... just thinking ahead.....⁉️
And just one more thorough, maybe do some kind of water pipe heated pipeing for the office with elements.....
Good job!
I am going to sit it in it's place but i have a window that will come and go with the flue pipe. That part will come later in the year. As for heating the office too that is something I thought about but the only problem is it would end up being around 150 feet of pipe (1 way) to make it work.
you might want to put a barrel on top of your exhaust
I'd say you're right, that'll work just fine. You are blowing air over the top so the temperature won't get high enough to do any damage to the steel. And the fuel is free? My favourite four letter 'F' word (yeah I'm too old for the other one to hold any great attraction.)
Lol
Logs?🤔
Hey, are u going to fire-it up before u install the wood burning stove to get the oil off of the stove??
We fired it once in the last video and probably will one more time before we hook it up at the new place.
What i woukdve done was roll it over mark the inside take it off cut a slit and plug weld it to the flange
You could take an old chipper handle which has a heavy “ spring looking” handle for your vent
Draft
Good afternoon
And to you sir
I know you know what your doing. Are you going to make something that can burn waste oil? Like a oil drip setup. Just curious. I do like the raw look better than painted. Make it look like a train engine.
Since we don't do a lot of mechanic work we don't get much waste oil. The little bit we do get will probably be just enough to get the fire started each day.
why is it illeagle 2 burn poplar? as big as that stove is it will run you out of that building once you get it warm in there,, be careful with that pallet wood or you will burn the building 2 the ground and that would be really bad...
Illegal to bur copper wire. The building it's going in will never burn down. It 100% brick and concrete. Even the roof
Fire it up. It's cold in Ohio 😂😂
Lol
I enjoy the vid content but all that harder louder music is aggravating.
I thought you asked for people to comment with suggestion that may help you with your design. I am sorry that I even commented now.
It's all good I wasn't calling out anyone just trying to address what was said by a number of people
Why would You make a Small Hole to Load Wood. It's a WOOD STOVE . NOT A RIB COOKER. SUPPOSE TO PUT HEAT OUT. BIGGER LOG BURN LONGER. HEAT GOES UP.
Tell me you didn't watch the whole video without telling me you didn't watch the video.
