- I converted my wood burning barrel stove into a waste oil heater using stuff laying around the shop and an eBay pellet stove blower. It works awesome and cranks out an insane amount of heat.

That's awesome.
Pretty awesome
They make a pump fits on a barrel an you can put a garden hose on it. Hand pump. Farm fleet
GREAT HEATER ! I'm in Idaho too, but just north of Middleton (40 mins west of Boise). I wish we were closer so I could actually see your heater and discuss it w/you. I made one, but It's so difficult to gauge the air flow. It goes from glowing red down to 300-ish degrees and I don't know why, but it's a natural aspiration (no fan). Oh, well. With Spring just around the corner, I'll make mods when the weather warms up, and I'll have it ready for next winter.
If you RV and find yourself in northern Idaho you can stay in our RV park and I would be happy to give you the grand tour.
Beautiful burner... I wish you would make a how to make video. The cupper tube going in from the top does it reach the rotter or does it end at the welding? Thanks :)
I had a go trying to weld big rig brake discs. What ever rod I had and tried, after cooling, my seams just peeled t.f. off... What did you weld yours with ?
How far is your air supply tube from the bottom of the bottom brake rotor? Do you have one single big air supply hole, or the pipe have tinny holes for air?
It is approx. 2" from the bottom of the burn pot. the oil supply tube stops about an inch short of the end of the blower tube. I also drilled holes around the perimeter near the end. up inside the blower tube I welded in a centering fixture to keep the oil tube centered in the tube.
What's under the rotors? Just a cup or bowl?
How often do you have to clean the rotor cup? Looks like it burns very clean!
It seems to keep itself pretty clean, when it is cherry red like it gets nothing can survive lol
Is that exhaust piping? For the air supply
It is 1-1/2 EMT conduit because I'm a sparky by trade 😂
