I thought I'd start a Rocket Oven "mods" page to see  if there was any interest. I've been using the plans (https://permies.com/wiki/davin) produced by Davin Hoyt. These plans are of exceptional quality and have set me off on my Rocket Oven building path.  I'm heading towards my tenth build and have made only one minor mod as I felt the door hinge needed a bit of beefing.  

Firstly I have changed to using T-Hinges for the door.  The lower T part are much more substantial  and the longer part run up inside the door - so are unseen.  I use the off cut from the door front and sandwhich that to the inside of the lower hinge attachment point.  I'll attach some pics.  

I also use a completely different build for the fire which involves no welding and the use of a brick/fire brick build with a clay/perlite/fire cement insulation around the riser. This also make for an easier installation of the oven - but I'll leave that to another 'mod' on this tread.
