My Ant Love wish list:
Biodegradable Bar Oil for my chainsaw. I'm gonna need a lot of this for milling lumber with my chainsaw mill.
Darn Tough Socks that come with an unconditional lifetime warrantee! I go through socks like goats through a fence, these are supposed to last a lifetime or they send you a new pair! Size 12/XL please
Glenn Herbert wrote:Your layout and reasoning looks good to me, given the constraints you have to work with. The one real change I would suggest is to eliminate the longish bent duct routing, and add another half barrel at right angles to the original set. Cutting the end of a half barrel to fit the side of another is not that big of a deal, and plenty of screws will hold the assembly together securely.

I would give the exterior chimney a drain so condensate would not have to come back inside to be handled. I would use a tee and not an elbow at the base of the chimney.
