Hey to everyone!!
We are two young adults, Despina 24 and Deivids 25 renovating an old farm house from 1817 in Latvia.
Everything in and out of our house has been done by ourselves with no hired help.
DIY is going to apply to nearly everything in our house. Our budget is tight and that has made us appreciate every “ugly” part of this house and turn it into something new and beautiful.
We give new life to things that others would throw away!
In this journey we are not alone! We are starting up our little Farmily:
7 Goats & 2 Bucks
3 Sheep
4 chickens & 3 Chicks
1 Rooster
and 3 Geese
Oh yeah and our cat Ivi & Dog Keita
Despite our daily problems we are two young people full of joy and happiness, ready to start a new crazy chapter in our life. It wouldn’t be fair to keep this fun just for us!
That’s why we want YOU to also be part of our Farmily!!
We love our very supportive community!!
Thank you so much for the support you are giving us. Every view, like, share, subscribe and financial support means a lot to us. Any support is extremely appreciated!

Make sure you round out the corners on the hole you cut into the cast iron of the stove body. The sharp corners will end up cracking with the thermal expansion of the stove… (stress risers). I see that you welded stuff up… anyway - hope you don’t get too much cracking….
Here in Canada - it would not be legal for us to do what you are doing due to the increased hazards for the building and its occupants…
Please, please, please make sure that whatever it is you end up with - that you are safe! Carbon monoxide… fire… etc……
You do say you are going to use setting compound for the firebricks….
Bringing combustion air in from outside is smart.
Hope this works out for you…
Gotta be honest - makes me nervous for your safety…
Well rocket stoves are like that and if you could see the stoves they build in houses in rural Latvia you would pull your hair out. This is all safe and monoxide alarm is in the room and also the stove is all sealed! External air is much safer and better for the draft and not sucking air out of the room making new air coming in through every part of the house!

@@DoBeDiffGood to know you have a carbon monoxide sensor. I won't use any type of flame combustion heaters without a reliable Carbon monoxide sensor unit installed in the room
Such creativity when you work it out in your mind and then you do it! You both are so talented and creative! Dessy said "NO I can't lift it" not funny but I giggled some, sorry Dessy! You did the best you could with such a heavy barrel. Please take care and stay warm!
I have been watching some of the old videos from two years ago. Both of you have changed a lot in manner and skill levels. You have learnt so many skills to become the adults you are now. I hope your latest project works well. You are very creative. ❤from Queensland.
This looks scary to an observer…. But I trust you to find a safe solution ! 🙏😘❤️
The prototyping stages of many projects often do look somewhat 'Heath Robinson' and scary but it is all part of the development process.
I can’t wait to see the finished rocket stove! :)
Lai izdodas! Ko darīt jums abiem ir milzums, un soli pa solim droši ejat uz priekšu. Prieks par jums!
Watching you work is so fun and honestly think you are genius for what you are doing at such a young age. I wish I were started on my dream back then but I wasn't as smart as you are. It reminds me what practical knowledge and creativity you can do anything!
These negative comments are boggling. Deivids and Despina are experimenting with creating multiuse goods made from existing materials. They will be able to cook on the stove, they are planning to heat household water with the stove, and Devids is putting his plans into action. I enjoy watching their creative thinking process. My grandparents farm was filled with innovative invention.
Thank you so much! Means a lot! ❤
I love it when you guys build something 💜✨
Such creativity and resourcefulness is astounding. Never wasteful always using supplies you have on hand never waste what can be reused or fashioned into useful items. You guys surprise me, but at the same time knowing all items on the farm will be used for what is needed. I love watching all your videos. Maybe once the daylight last longer your videos will be a little longer.
I don’t understand why you are trying to reinvent the wheel always… just build real stove of Kuznecov from bricks and you will live happily ever after… By the way blueprints are absolutely free on his page
Maybe you know this already and kinda unrelated to the stove, the ash you collect in the morning when you clean the stove can be used to make a “bath” for chickens, they love it and it keeps the parasites away too. You can make a rectangle/square with 4 pieces of wood (the “bath”) and pour the ash inthere.
You work so hard and achieve so much a lovely lovely little family you’re so gorgeous I love you both and the animals particularly the geese geese😂❤
Deivid the selfmade man for all things. Good luck and stay warm👍
Looking forward to see how it works for you !
Exciting! These stoves are really good. I always enjoy your adventures. ❤
Please have a working carbon monoxide detector. We lost my brother one freezing winter and almost lost his neighbors too
He said in one comm that there's "monoxide alarm" in the room
Please put ceramic tiles under the stove if you plan on removing the plate that’s there now. Even a thin piece of metal would be better than nothing.
The legs don't get hot!
@@DoBeDiff , it’s not the legs that are the issue. It’s the remnants of the firebox that could come in contact with the floor, even though the floor is fireproof. It doesn’t take much to start a house fire. Fireproof doesn’t mean that much in the grand scheme of things when you’re talking about flooring. You should always have either ceramic or metal under a wood stove. I grew up with a wood stove and have used one consistently throughout my lifetime. I just don’t want you to burn down. You both are adorable.
@@nisar8009 As the saying goes,”It’s always better to be safe than sorry”. I would always have something underneath it as well as behind it. I’m not understanding the purpose of putting in the rocket stove when you already have a wood burning stove. Is it supposed to create way more heat or what.
@@jacquelinewells7575, the rocket stove will use less wood and retain heat longer. It requires less feeding of the stove in the night. It’s a good idea when you don’t have any other heat source. It’s still a stove where wood is being burned. It needs precautions to be taken just like any other wood stove.
I am not sure what a rocket stove without mass means.......
I kinda don't get it. Why do you need rocket stove? Just buy woodstove with secondary burning + do external air intake and it will be hot and eat little wood.
That's what this will be! So why would I buy something when I can make it? Rocket stove has secondary burning but doesn't cost a lot and burns very little wood.
Take care💙
👁️✝️🛐👁️🩸🕯️🍞💧⚖️🌡️😡🌋🌪️👂👀🙏⏳, love's get a thin plate sheet of metal for under that fireplace, don't leave it on floor , please please please
And another interesting video brilliant
Please put something on your flooring!!! In the plate you now have, consider cutting out holes for the legs of the stove. That way the stove will sit lower, as needed...AND there will be a good heat barrier between it and the floor...also easy to clean! 👍🤔
The Legs don't get hot! It's perfectly safe! 😀❤
@@DoBeDiff good deal. I meant so it would make it shorter. You'd said you had to remove the "plate" because it was too tall. But I'm sure by now you've worked out a plan. 👍😉
That looks like cast-iron you have to heat it up before welding it or it will crack
Yeah learned that the hard way! 😂
@@DoBeDiff The better joining method is to use brazing but you would have to insulate the rest of the iron panels to get enough heat into the area to be brazed with an oxy-acetylene torch.
Another option is to use welding wire or electrode rods with a nickel based alloy that are intended by design for cast iron and dissimilar metal joining/welding. If working with cast iron projects I prefer to use mechanical joining methods if possible(bolting or screwing together)
Hello you two I really like you video, and for your wife she takes beautiful pictures she should make a job of it 🙂
How are you staying warm while you have no stove?
Our bedroom has a Clay pot stove which keeps the room nice and warm!
@@DoBeDiff Glad to hear it.
That's definitely a great way to transform the stove. Hopefully you'll be able to get it done soon. 🙏
Hello Do&BE 🙋
Please protect those elevated sharp edges of that metal base plate. Just the right height to skin off the top of a foot, sever a toe, or side split a foot like the Titanic. every time I see it I just spine cringe.
Had it like that for 3 years never walked into it. Just have to be careful! But as I said in the video it will be removed as it's unnecessary.
@@DoBeDiff
Oh good, missed that part. Love ya'lls videos. just worried about you feet. :)
increase the hole in the barrel, make a shelf / step for support near the combustion shaft
sorry my google translate)
Interesting. I have not heard of a rocket owen before. The barrel looks very heavy indeed.
🌟👏👍🍀💐
Longer videos will definitely get you a better RUclips check.
but they put shorter ones out almost daily. probably the same if they did longer ones less frequently.
You will have some serious heat this winter!👍👍
You have some mad skills! Who taught you all that you do you are amazing
Und das Ziel ist was ? Dass die Ofenwärme länger hält ? Oder ist der Ofen plötzlich kaputt gegangen ?
I know this is random but you guys should get a heated blanket. Trust me if your trying to stay warm heated blankets are a savior at night
We have one for years now and it's the best thing for cold winter!
Rihgt time to experiment with stoves.
Always working to improve things! If I was in your shoes I would be suffering the cold for SURE haha, I have no technical skills like the ones you do. I would have to wear coats to bed haha
I goigled "rocket stove" and this is what I found:
Fuel is burned in a simple combustion chamber containing an insulated vertical chimney, which ensures almost complete combustion prior to the flames reaching the cooking surface.
My question...Is yours insulated? I didn't see that it was. Wouldn't that have a big impact on the efficiency?
The Bricks you see us use are very good insulators so there is no need for any extra insulation!
@@DoBeDiff ahhh...of course. Didn't think about them 😪
@@kathyusa-iowa5137 don't worry! ❤️
When you’re finished it will look pretty nice and keep you two warm !❤️🧓🇱🇹🇺🇸
I love that you have a proper work shop now!
Workshop (one word).
@@terribrooks9041 Pedantic is also one word🤣
Looking forward to part 2!
Stay safe
🇬🇷👏👏👏👏
👌🏻👌👌🏻🌼
Can't wait to see part 2 os the video.
burn proof laminate?
Stay warm 🔥🔥🇺🇸
People always telling you how talented you are can sometimes go to your h
ead. Please becareful of what you are doing because it can get you killed, its ok to leave things to the experts. When we are young we think we can do anything. Sometimes we should not.
it is also good to take on big challenges but just do the right reading up before diving in. I encourage people to take on project challenges and don't like to discourage anyone from having a go with the right info and learning on board.
Please get a new stove before you burn your house down.
why is it that you feel all of a persons technical solutions have to be provided as 'bought in' rather than self provided? So long as the people taking on a project understand the safety issues and address them then I wholly encourage anyone to be more self sufficient in providing their own solutions...just be sure to read up on the potential hazards first.
