    Having worked in a farm huge metal building repair shop many years ago, these are great during the rainy, snowy, winter days. The older mechanics made a removeable metal griddle that sat on top of the lower drum so that breaktimes you could heat up or toast some bread, fry some sausages, even a few eggs, bacon, etc for the crew. There's not a lot of space between the drums, but it just occurred to me that I bet there's a way to make great coffee with one of those double chamber Italian coffeemakers, just extend the griddle out a bit somehow for it to sit on and conduct the heat. When the power goes out in the winter (which often happened), you'd be set. Also, they had a suspended metal frame above the stove where you could spread out and warm up damp work gloves. In our modern world where so much is manufactured, the handmade solutions often bring back the best memories.

    My uncle had a couple of these when I was younger. One in his mechanic's shop for work and one in his garage at home. They weren't all fancy with the flanges, he just cut and welded some pipe between them to hold the upper chamber and act as a means to transfer the heat, and he filled the upper chamber with scrap steel so it would collect and radiate the heat even after the fire went out.

I remember these in houses back in the day; they could warm up a draughty uninsulated space in no time and keep it that way (though they wouldn't hold a fire overnight). I guess the single-wall rolled steel isn't as fire-safe as heavy cast iron; is that why they banned them from living spaces?

    Cool stove. Great video. I’m an HVAC tech and the only illegal thing I see is the way the venting connects, you did it upside down. Crimps of stove pipe, or any venting, need to be in the direction of air flow to eliminate flue spillage. So crimps should be going upwards or smoke or CO will leak out.

      @luckysevenairammo1217 Před 2 lety +3

      Wrong, on woodstove applications (only) you always run the male opposite the flow, this keeps creosote and condensation from running out of the joint onto the exterior of the pipe. And flue installations the pipe is the opposite of HVAC since it is under vaccuum not pressure. Under pressure like (HVAC) the flow works best male with flow. On a woodstove you are asking for a creosote fire on the outside of the pipe.

    It may not be "illegal" to make and use on of these barrel wood stoves, but if it fails and burns down your house or garage, then the insurance company will not pay for damages. I have seen these in people's garages and they work pretty good to heat the place up in the colder months. The problem is that heat generated, melts the bottoms out. They have to be lined with stove bricks. I would like to see a wood stove made out of a 275 gallon oil tank. I made a burner barrel for my dad which took 3 years to burned out, but it was used outside and was getting rained on. Cool video through. Thanks.

      Yeah my dad made one out of an oil tank just like you're saying, except that he uses it for burning garbage and small brush outside so he doesn't have to get a permit. He just slams the door shut. It's a bit of a monstrosity. As for melting the bottoms out, we always let so much ash accumulate in the bottoms of our single barrel stove that it was plenty insulating. I think the stove outlasted the garage.

      My insurance company wouldn't even give me insurance on the structure over this stove. I bought the place in October and it's inaccessible in winter so I didn't have time to change it so I figured I could at least get insurance on it and obviously if the stove caused a loss I wouldn't be covered but they denied me any coverage

    Years ago my uncle built one of these double barrel stoves. It was super efficient and burned smoke free. If the fire was to big, the top barrel would could glow straw red. But this stove could heat a triple stall garage so effectively, that even when it was -20 outside we could open the main door and still be warm.

      So yeah seeing your real dad isn't as exciting as you might hope for, i know who my dad is and what his principles are and i dont like him
      I find it quite ironic that I've learned more and had better friendships with male strangers than my own dad.

Not for cutting from the start to the finish of a complete cut in sheet metal. Green and Red handled snips are both used to cut straight line cuts from start to finish in sheet metal ... The difference between Red and Green handled snips is which way they curl the sheet metal; up to the right or up to the left; as the cut progresses from start to finish in sheet metal. Hope this helps.

The only problem I had with it was birds would fly down the stove pipe until I put a screen over it. And I sold the place to a friend of mine who is still using it now. My father in law put a rebar grate in it to keep the fire off the bottom. The drums have never been replaced. I don't know why he would say that it is illegal. It may be in his state. I have put a smaller one in my shop just last year. Just one drum on this one.

    I love the day to day videos, but can agree it would be nice to see a full overview of the projects, rolled into one video, once there completed whenever that may be

    Could you do a video on the common man's vehicle recovery kit? I would love a Warn winch but they are expensive and it's out of my budget at the moment. However, I'd still like to be prepared with my truck. Thanks, love the videos Cody!

      A come-along, chain and a D-ring hitch if you have a receiver hitch. Don't just hook to a ball

      He's done several of those. Go back and watch some of his older videos, there's lots of good ones. Harbor Freight have some decent winches for cheap. As well as rigging gear. Straps and come-alongs etc.

    Really appreciated your comments at the end, Cody. As impatient as I can be, and like to see things DONE! NOW! the delayed gratification of watching a project come to completion over several videos, over several days, is really beneficial in this over-zealous world of instant gratification and immediate fulfillment. Thanks for showing the behind the scenes. Nice soft boxes (lights).... I really like the mood it sets. Blessings, man!

    Anyone who complains "its taking to long " doesn't actually do anything ....unless watching others work is counted as 'doing something ' ! ! !
    Your stove reminds me of the shop stoves we would build when we were young. we didn't have any of the fancy cast flanges ,etc you have for your build, we made that up out of scrap steel and pipe we'd get from the junkyard for cheap. that could fit standard store bought stove pipe.our fire box having 2~4 inches of beach sand with old masonry brick on top to build our fires upon & its cold here in winter in Canada, wood pallets at the Industrial Park were free fire wood & it kept our garages warm where we could work on our vehicles . They were ugly but they worked great to heat a garage up. often you had 1 side of you cooking, the side away from the stove was chilled ~;)
    Best we could do as Students with part time jobs, and 2nd hand beaters, dirt bikes and a couple old snow machines to work on.

    I haven't seen these heaters since traveling through British Colombia and the Yukon in the early 1970s. I suppose they're still in use there, because they're the most effective heaters I've ever seen. When the temperature outdoors was around 40 below, one of these would heat a very large, high-ceilnged room to the point of being too warm for comfort. Make no mistake: if you want real heat, get one of these. They work!
