I like how clean it burns, Stealthy it won't draw attention.
I enjoyed watching both parts of this build and installation. Okay, you made some mistakes, but he that never made any mistakes never made anything. Almost a year since this was uploaded and looking forward to some more. Don't get disheartened by the Thumbs down, CZcams is full of armchair critics. I'm one too when I see crap that wastes my time, but this is a good honest project.
You could also try a damper flap in the flue that you can adjust to try and retain the heat without any smoke coming back. Try and get yourself a plasma cutter, it will change your cutting experience. You could also wrap the flue with copper pipe for making hot water. Great job Bob . Keep going.
Brilliant. This is the exact build I was looking for, for my small garage heater. Simplicity is the essence of elegance. 4x4 welded steel tube, ceramic wrap for the riser, etc. I like the removable top plate too. One note: the stainless steel band you used on the riser will disintegrate. I was thinking about using the ceramic cord to tie the wrap on.
Nice work. The exhaust going out has to give off heat INSIDE the room either through a heat sink(thermal battery) or a long pipe inside the room before exiting outside. This way, your outside pipe will be much cooler. Its all about containing or capturing the heat before it exits the building.
May I suggest that you add a lip around the underside of the lid that fits just inside the circumference of the bottle. This will hold the lid on and give the cement helping to seal it. You could even us wood stock asbestos rope to seal it. Good build, lots of good tips for my build.
Thanks Bob (From New Zealand)
Thank you brother 👍
iam from India.
Great explanation ...nice workmanship
Brilliant, well done and thanks for sharing...
I put the door over the wood feed tube, and the air drafts into the horizontal pipe. That keeps the wood from burning farther up, and seems to burn it slower/longer. You can also put an ash tray under a grate right under the wood to make it easier to clean. And I'm about to put a door on the side of the drum so I can get in there to clean. I might try putting some food in when it's cooling down to see if there's a way to make it an oven, too.
Nice step by step tutorial video.
fantastic video well done
Bring the pip inside, add heat exchanger,, you can even add a solar panel and backup battery for nite use. Add a small fan you can increase heat 10X. I have the same set up on a small wood stove. I added a thermo switch. It comes on when it comes up to heat and shuts off when it cools down. I heated a 3600 square foot house using this method in a basement fireplace.
Thanks. Loved this video. Lots of useful information.
I have a chimney trapped in plastic dowels. She started to tilt after three years ... now she's caught in metal anchors.
Feeding tube is not too long?
I recommend lifting it up and putting a ash catch pan underneath it Also if you leave your feed chamber completely closed at the end of your burn you won’t get any smoke in the house keep the air intake low and you won’t get any smoke back up and on a windy day you can clamp on dryer vent or plummet so you get the air from outside I had to dial mine in quite a bit before I was happy with it it’s a nice looking stove thoughKeep working on it you’ll be happy with it experiment with pellets to their a lot of fun and very efficient
👍nice work
I am used to regular wood stoves. So how often would you have to load a rocket stove if it was your primary source of heat? My parents had a traditional wood stove when I was growing up..you had to load it about every 4 hours respectively.
Thumb up!Try 1:2:3 tube ratio and maybe 5"x5" tubes.
Bob, Excellent production! Elegant build! Is the exhaust path thru the vermiculite? Makes sense that it would be. Just want to be sure.
if you extend the internal flue/ outer barrel you won't need to shorten the feed tube. insulate the burn chamber too. ideally you'd have a secondary air feed adjacent to the burn chamber into the flue to ensure a complete burn (pre-heated air flahing as soon as it hits whatever smoke is in the flue). i didn't see you include a constriction for the venturi effect either. this should be after the burn chamber/ at the bottom of the flue, with the secondary air feeding in just after that.
what is the correct ratio for a rocket stove heater ? I've seen many different things and i cant seem to find the correct ratio
Хорошая печь . Только отверствие куда закидываете дрова должно закрыватся , на время розжига . Тогда для розжига не нужен будет фен и когда заканчивает гореть закрыть а открыть внизу . Чтобы дым не пошол в помещение. У меня тоже такая печь , но еще с дверкой в верху.
Other rocket stoves I've seen have a much longer flue led inside to radiate more heat or to collect it in a mass (e.g. bricks, water maybe).
Hey There, I love your video and the way you explain everything step by step. I would like to talk to you in detail in regards to the design and other aspects. Please do let me know if that is possible.
it needs to be 1 &1/2 inch from top the center pipe to lid ,,your chimmy pipe needs to be at bottom of stove ,yours is 4 to 6 inch up this is what i think this will stop your heat from going up chimmy pipe ,, this may help or may not
hi my feed pipe is 500 od long I find it supports my long timba ie pallet full lengths ...after 30 min I can get up to 350 c to 500c
how do you clean out the ash???
You need a ash pan
Great video great channel,,, new subscriber here ☺. I just got a building last year and that would be perfect,,, thanks. Oh yeah what was that in the main flu body? Thanks and God bless
Congratulaitions for your video, thanks . Ask him. What if he does it with three or four tanks?. A very warm greeting.
Do you have any ideas of how to make a wood stove and rocket stove combination ??? This would let a person to load a stove for 8 hours before a refill.
Hey Victory First, I've been researching rocket stoves a lot lately. A state of the art stove that meets your requirements is called "Batch Box Rocket" and can be found here batchrocket.eu/en/
The outside stack is too high. That is why it is pulling the heat out and up. The stack only needs to be a few feet above the height of the top of your inner stack. I don't know what the inner's of your design looks like. This the first video I have watched on your channel. When I had a RMH, the exhaust gas pipe was not insulated and the temp was only 115 degree max as it exited the building. I believe your stack is drawing the fire up and out of the RMH. Shoot for the sky not the moon.
재받이가 없는데? 재는 어떻게 처리할것인가?
Nice build... Are you tired of feeding sticks?
Yeah, really the only downside of the rocket stove is it needs near constant attention. But if you feed it enough and let it burn slowly, you can leave it alone for a couple of hours
Another cylinder to radiate the heat indoors. A water heater cylinder is what worked for me. Steel riser is consumable, not good for daily long term use, but easy alternative to electricity and gas. I cut my heating bill 1/8 over power and 1/6 over gas. Loads of free wood and start well with a pine cone lit with a plumbers blow torch. Mix hard and soft woods to last long.

Ash? It has a removable top! Metal will burn out is true, only after he has enjoyed many, many days of toasty heat. At that time, he will be board with that design and new ingenious ideas will become a new stove.
👏👏👏💖
Try 45 degredes right in the stove!!! and you not have to sit and put in sticks 24/7 haha:-)
Make the feed chamber diameter larger and longer also. Make it so you could put 4 pieces of wood in stacked one on top of each other length wise and they would drop in with gravity as they burn down.
If you put the flue pipe inside the house up the inside wall you will get heat from that pipe only go outside when you can not run the up pipe inside you will gain tons of heat from doing it that way! you took most of your heat outside going out that low on the wall.
The exhaust is fairly cool by the time it exits the second burn chamber. My stove's barrel gets hot enough to take off skin in a split second, but the pipe is just warm only 30-40cm out. I put a grill around it to make it safe.
My chimney is 80% indoors and not insulated. But it's cool because my barrel is larger and I also used 100 mm. I upped my feed tube diameter to burn longer and jam less. Had some air flow thru bottom permanently and a bit thru top, closing feed tube top when nice and hot so no smoke indoors when fire gets low. A 75mm tube inside feed tube and pellet burner mod was tried with fair success at the end of the season.
EXHAUST SHOULD GO INTO A MASS STORAGE AND NOT OUTSIDE.
Yeah ideally it should. But I plan on running the exhaust through the room behind the stove over the summer to capture the heat and it should go a long way to heating the room
I was going to suggest the same thing
metal is doomed :)
Nothing is eternal under the moon!
there is no sample of exhaust gases, these stoves, in addition to high consumption of matter, emit low dissipation of temperature in terms of meters, high heat but high consumption and low performance of heat meters to cover. In short, lost time and money.
UR IRISH?
you loose to much heat because you chimny is going streight throw wall
