Yes.  I built it from a you tube video from KSPREPPER1- rocket stove's measurements and materials explained.

No worries, this was something I tried; we are all here to learn.

I decided against it, because of venting it.  I don't want to punch a hole in a perfectly good wall.  It may be stupid, but I know my limitations; and it would be a big mistake.

Hey, thanks for the input.

I built a rocket stove to heat my garage, and have changed my mind.  So, I am selling it.  I am located in CT.

Most things I will try at least once. About 3 months ago I decided to stop planning and talking and put a plan into action. I came across some used cooking oil, I dumped it (filtered) into my heating oil tank. Things seemed fine, the water also seemed hotter. Maybe it was the satisfaction of taking a first step into non reliance on Heating Oil. Anyways, my heater started misfiring; it eventually shut down. No big deal, I pulled the filter off; cleaned it. No good. So, I went the next step and tried to remove the nozzle. I had a heck of a time, when I managed to wrestle it out; it had a caked on varnish. Well, I cleaned it all up and reassembled. But I also decided, never again...

Okay, thanks for the advice; it all seems very solid.

My use requirements would be to have some lighting, in the shed, and the trickle charge my tractor. I mow once a month for 40 minutes. So, I am not too worried about charge time. But I like the idea of being able to build onto the system.


I am going to look into your suggestions. Thanks...

Realistically, how much power is this? They sell them at Harbor Freight, I thought it would be a good gateway into solar power. The project I came up with was it would power my shed, and trickle charge my electric tractor. My idea was to have the cells charge a battery station and draw power from there. It sounds solid, how applicable is it? Thanks...

I recently acquired an electric golf cart. Does anyone know how to remove the motor from it? It is attached directly into the transmission, as opposed to the ones that are parallel with it. My plan is to use it in an electric tractor project. Thanks...
