How To Build A Penny Tile Wood Stove Fireplace Hearth

- This is my method for building a wood stove hearth covered in pennies for our off grid cabin. It did take some time and used approximately 3,000 pennies, but I love the look. It's an antique copper look that really looks unique and it will surely be a conversation piece for years to come.

I had to go back and watch this build . Great job !
Looks very cool. Thank you. Many years ago I tried a table with polyurethane covering bottle caps and it didn't work, but after seeing yours go well, the method you used gives me new confidence to try again in the future.
Very nice. Thanks looks beautifull
Absolutely AMAZING !!!!!
You guys did such a good job.
Nice looking She Shed Rod!
Thanks squatch
Nice set up. That stove has got to be rated for about 1200 square feet. It will chase you out of there even on the coldest nights.
I did a hearth in my home but used slate tiles instead of pennies. I also did a floor to ceiling backboard of stone to give an added heat barrier for the wall.
Yeah. It is a 1200 square foot stove. It will run you out if you aren't careful. Lol
Nice looking hearth I seen a person do that same type of thing to a counter top in a RV once she poured a polyurethane on top but y’all’s better because not as glossy
I think you have a really cool iea and quite the conversation piece. I hate to ask but... (Psst, Is it legal to use U.S. currency?)
Liquid Nails and polyurethane are extremely flammable. Should not be used near an open flame or a heat source. Might last for a while, but repeated, long-term exposure to heat will cause ignition and smoldering which may not be detected until it is too late.
Liquid nails is absolutely not flammable after it dries.

Also, polyurethane is completely fine as well once it dries for my application. I am using this under a 2" clearance wood stove. I probably would not use a regular cast iron stove on top of it with the poly coating, so I agree on that aspect.
Awesome build! Very nice looking. What stove is that?

What kind of stove did you get?
What thickness is the osb?
How is the epoxy holding up with any embers or ash falling out of stove? What type of epoxy did you use, and where did you source it ?
No epoxy. I only covered the pennies with satin polyurethane.
Oh I was thinking you did epoxy for some reason. So no issues with pouring the poly thick to cover pennies ? Poly is holding up I take it ?
@@damonr2233 it is holding up good with the wood stove I have but I think it would be a problem if you had an old school cast iron wood stove
My stove is only a year and a half old, so no worries there... I do wonder how an occasional ember falling out.
What did you use to glue pennies down
Liquid nails
What color grout did you use
Charcoal
About how many pennies did that take? I'm thinking of doing that for ours...awesome videos-thanks!
In the video he says that he used about 3,000 :)
Mine works too. I used the Stodoys plans and performed it without any problems.
I just found the answer to my question to you. "It is not illegal to melt, form, destroy, or otherwise modify US coins, including pennies, unless the objective is fraudulent or with the intent of selling the raw materials of the coins for profit. Projects that use coins as materials are entirely legal in the United States." But I suppose you looked into that before you started. ha
Really wish people would stop doing this penny stove floors. Neither poly nor epoxy should be used near high heat.
This was my thought exactly
