Hi,
I am trying to build a rocket stove/s for a stovepipe water jacket and for thermal mass in a greenhouse.
I have pulled out a pile of fire bricks I got years ago, and am wanting to make a 6inch rocket stove as most of my salvaged pipe is 6inch. (I do have a smaller amount of 8 inch, so could make a small bell style thermal mass).
75 that are 9 x 4.5 x 3in or 230 x 115 x 75mm.
I can also get these insulating fire bricks the same size on sale, so if I can keep with this size all the better.

5 (two with corners cracked) that are 11.75 x 11.75 x 1.5 inches or 273 x 273 x 37mm I can't find more of these size online.
12 x 12 x 2 and 13x 13 x 2 inch fire bricks are available, but at $33-46 each compared to $7 each for the other ones.
I have found a few photos of people making J cores with these bricks, but no clear pattern of how to place them. I am sure it must be out there someone. Anyone got a link?
Thanks in advance.
