rocket stove heater with thermal imaging

first post...first rsh built. enjoy...comments/questions ok.

I posted the below comment on another thread about a week go:

The prevailing advice is: don't use metal in the burn tube and riser. It will function for a while, but eventually corrode.

Admittedly, your video didn't show (or give any details on) the internal riser.

tnx for input. yes, have read this. but rockets are used for many different applications. seasonal use at a lake cabin will negate the need to make it out of masonry or ceramic.

primary heating 6 months out of year...i agree steel is not ideal.

I rewatched your video to see if I had missed this info. You briefly mentioned a cabin, but no mention of how heavily you were going to use it. I really recommend you include this sort of thing in your future videos, as I believe this is really important for beginners to understand.
