RMH completed - some fotos and big thanks!

Three years ago I started to plan my Rocket Mass Heater project and I posted a lot of questions and thoughts here: https://permies.com/t/40/210656/Questions-building-tube-RMH-tiny

The Heater worked since october/november 2023 but was just roughly finished. In the last weeks I finally did the last finishing work (fine plaster and a layer of lineseed oil varnish).

With this post I want to share some pictures and say big thanks to all of the wonderful people in this forum who helped me and who help others! Who share their knowledge without expecting anything in return. Spaces like this where people work together because they share similiar ideas or values are so important from my point of view. So: THANKS A LOT!

And I want to encourage anyone thinking about building a Rocket Mass Heater to just go ahead and do it. My tiny house has become so much more comfortable thanks to this change.

I'm also open to share more details about difficulties, experiences and how I realized different steps of this build although I'm not online in this forum that often.

Superb Job, Jonas!
That is beautiful, thank you for sharing it with us!

You decided to drop the bypass? [edit: I guess it is that handle coming out of the cob- forgot this was a 1.5 barrel high radiant chamber.]
