H34 - wood stove

[Guillaume C.]

Hola, I had a little bit of free time in the last couple of weeks so I played with a project I had in mind since a while, a baby wood stove for the boat;P

Well after about 3 times as much time as I was planning to invest in the project (as always!) the stove is installed and heating up the space!

Here's the link to some pictures:

THAT is VERY neat! How did you insulate around the pipe thru the deck? A detailed description of how you made the stove and installed it would be very interesting?

 

[Don Crowther]

Very Nice. That should keep the chill off in the spring and fall. Will you have a fan to move the air around?

Well done! And, fun to see what kind of modification gets you Canadian sailors excited immediately!

Very nice, but now you need to find a way to circulate the air.

Thanks for the comments

I was not really planning to write an how-to about it because it is probably not worth making such thing unless your insist on making stuff yourself. Even with all the tools you may want (plasma, badass MIG, etc) it still took me about 50 hours to finish, those invisible welds and polish takes time! Probably better just buying an already made stove But if anyone want to make one I'll gladly share some instructions

For circulating the air we have a fan on the corner of that locker (to ventilate the bed area), I just need to mount it so it can point toward the main cabin, the mysterious bulkhead opening will finally have a purpose!
