HF weed burner on a 20lb tank. No kindling required. One of the best additions to the shop wood stove . Added a 175,000 btu propane heater. In ten minutes while I'm getting the woodstove, kicking the shop is pretty warm. It's not nearly as big as yours, but it definitely takes the chill off quick. I love the recliners, adopted one myself. The chair of life reflection. Really cool stove, lots of R&D in that big guy.
Really cool stove. A novel idea. That thing could heat the Nasa highbay shops, with ease. Firebrick the inside complete. less wood burned and it will hold more heat, I think you have a bit too much space inside. Even though it's a small bucket, that's alot of space. That thing would hold heat like a Steam locomotive. Steam Loco takes 7-8 days after fire-out, before it is cool to the touch and cool enough to wrench on one.
My buddy had a shop thus big. He bought a coal stove. One of them rectangular/squared off style stoves. That moderately sized coal/wood stove would cook us out if we weren’t careful. This wood stove is epic/cool as heck. But companies like Jotul pour millions into engineering their wood stoves. My guess is this stove is super inefficient. Still awesome. Murica!
When i put my flu damper in my heater shell temp increased 100*, that 400* heat thats floating out the chimney will create more heat in the shell. I have all sorts of intake air adjustments i choke off but that reduces the flame but that flu damper holds the heat in. Ive heard several people say you dont want to choke the exhaust side but with my set up im about maintaining heat and wood longevity, i burn 1/2 to 1/3 of what i was using with 2-3 times the radiant heat but whatever works works lol
That is such a cool stove great job 👍. My shop is all steel 40x40 with 14' walls. Came as a special package insulated. I put 5/8 dry wall all the way around and insulated again behind that. I have overhead heaters x 2 only using 1. I heated it with a Empire pot belly stove. Heated the whole shop. I changed the stove to a large Regency for 4 times longer burn time. Once the shop is insulated your bucket woodstove will heat the shop without any problem at all.
I have a coal burner that has an automatic air flow regulator flap hooked to what looks like a spring for a weed wacker pull start amd as it get hot the spring will bend down to slow the air flow and keep it consistant at all times… the thermostat setup is on a WONDER COAL BURNER. If you need to look up the specs to make the setup yourself, it works great and there is no need for Flue once you install this
I have been heating my house tri-level for 10 years with a. LOPI Wood stove 15 inches 21 inches With a 16 inch opening It is completely bricklined . I cut and split my own would due to the small 16 inch opening and maximum 17 inch inner . Take a look at the lopi wood stove looks to be engineered like yours👍👀👍🇺🇲
Awesome video and good explanations. If you ever do a neway suspension I’d really like to see that I love my Mack’s so those are the two suspensions I see the most
very very nice project u got here!! i have to add one thing here , if you have more firebricks stack them around that stove creatingan open portion/a draft on the intake for a more regulated airflow intake and those bricks hold temperature allnight
Just found this channel because of this stove! Thats a bad ass stove and ive seen alot of diffrent stoves over the years. I need it in my garage in minnesota!
Really impressed. Would think that would heat the hell out of that shop once insulated. Obviously I can’t grasp all the parameters. I’m used to burning big super dry oak logs. If you had regular outside lows around 0 - 10 degs, could you see loading that full with DRY oak. I’m trying to envision it getting through the night but maybe that doesn’t matter for your purposes. Trying to figure how it might roll w/o a high mass chimney. I’m used to masonry chimney mass. Thanks. Digging what you do.
I run a flue damper in my Hearthstone stove. Because I have 28’ of flue pipe and the stove would over temp. Just cleaned the flue after 2 seasons and it was very clean.
Great fab job. When trying to limit or slow the input try some steel wool. I am amazed how much you can choke a fire down and still produce heat. Nice shop!
Sweet stove. Have burned tons of wood in big Jotuls. I’m not quite with you on the flue damper. With well seasoned wood flue damper is great to see you through the night so long as you’re burning hot & clean. Sometimes the draft is just too much.
Run. Some water lines through it …for a steam engine ..to run a generator… with air compressor…three way use of the wood being used…. Something to think about !!! ( pizza oven attachment…lol. ) # Water line for geothermal heating.. pumped around the building by using the steam engine…. / steam clean your equipment…. Options are unlimited..!!!! Have. A. Fun. Day. Stay. Safe Keep warm ….
We have a kindling maker as well.... Different model tho.... Its a German engineered, 2023 Sable Shepherd. She can produce up to 2 pounds of kindling wood per day. Self starting, Automatic, So efficient that we find wood slivers in the most unpredictable of places.
I'll agree with the flue damper on non air tight stoves. However, when not in use, they restrict the amount of cold air coming in the building via the chimney and stove.
Fan air ,one thing i found out. With the fire going but when trying to heat the shop an round the stove. Until it gets heated in the room the fan is pulling cold an or cool air in the fan . So on my stove once the stove heats up some where the heat comes out from the top when blowing. I took a pipe from where the heat comes out down to the blower intake so the stove then is recycling the heat.its blowing hot heat into the blower its not pulling in cold or cool air at first .until the room gets warm. Hope you understand.if not please ask. Because this will make a difference in heating the room faster .theres no since pulling in cool air through the stove until room gets hot.
I’m not exactly sure what you’re saying. But I believe it is best similar to what we have because the cold air in the building sinks to the ground where the fan is picking it up to then run it through the stove and heat it up to keep a cycle of air moving.
Look up how masonry stoves are built. They work on the principle of allowing in a ton of air during the combustion chamber, routing the extremely hot gases created through a network of massive masonry channels, which soak up that heat. The fire typically lasts less than an hour, but the resulting heated thermal mass keeps your space warm for 12 hours or more. It works the exact opposite of what you guys are trying to do in this video.
I'd think both could be done. For a shop this fits. Inside my house yep I'd love to have what you are talking about.This stove just what I thought of when I first saw a actual stove in a bucket. They will get it right. Thankz for sharing.
Flue dampener keeps all ur heat from going up the pipe it’s not designed to completely shut off flow it has holes in the dampener flap it also keeps from burning so much wood so fast
Awesome idea and build. Only thing I would do is damper on the chimney and on the combustion air intake so you can throttle your burn rate. Again what a friggen nice stove top notch cool.😂
You should feed the fire from below not the side. You only use a flue damper to preserve the heat in the chamber with a dying fire. Basic steam engine principles.
@@WolfpupfabI have help several people set up wood burning stoves and have modified several others so all of the combustion air is drawn from outside and the efficiency greatly improves.
BTUs are BTUs my friend, no matter how efficient you think you're making that stove you can't change the laws of thermodynamics. That is a large shop and that is a large stove with a ton of mass. There is no way around it you're going to have to run that stove hot and hard to get the most out of what you built.
Remember fire 🔥 need item wood 🪵 and air remove one ☝️ and fire 🔥 go out 😊. You need a little oxygen all the time to burn 🔥 right . Beautiful looking wood 🪵 stove with hand 🖐 down . 😊
Every operator in America has got to want one of these. Looks great!
That's one of the best woodstoves I've ever seen!
What a great piece of artwork a master piece 👏. I love wood stoves and this is my favorite one. Well done. 😊
That is the coolest and the best woodstove ive seen build home made! Very neat!
Awesome stove, reminds me of the kid’s book, “Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel”!
A prime example of someone who knows how to think. Not what to think.
That's one of the coolest stoves I've ever seen!

Absoulutely my favorite wood stove build! need to try and do one.
Thanks, you should!
noticed if anyone say they will make it he will comment buuuut NO HEART FOR YOU!

Very nice build.
Looks like a 7- 8 cu foot fire box
Wood stoves need outside fresh air and ceiling fans will help alot. That's a pretty cool stove.
That’s the most expensive wood stove ever made. Solid work and well done.
Thanks 👍 it actually cost under $1,000 of material
I love it great ingenuity I’ll have to remember that next time I see and old bucket👍👍👍
My buddy had a shop thus big. He bought a coal stove. One of them rectangular/squared off style stoves. That moderately sized coal/wood stove would cook us out if we weren’t careful. This wood stove is epic/cool as heck. But companies like Jotul pour millions into engineering their wood stoves. My guess is this stove is super inefficient. Still awesome. Murica!
What a great looking stove! Love it!
I have to admit this one of the coolest wood stoves I’ve ever seen
It should have two dampeners on it. One on the air inlet and another on the exhaust outlet keep it simple 🍻
When i put my flu damper in my heater shell temp increased 100*, that 400* heat thats floating out the chimney will create more heat in the shell. I have all sorts of intake air adjustments i choke off but that reduces the flame but that flu damper holds the heat in.

Sweet. Very nice work. The tweaking is fun if you got the time.
Very imaginative and re-purposeful. Good thing you have lots of elbow room in your shop.
Kick ass build man.
Time to buy some old buckets

Thanks, we will be finding out all those answers eventually.
Insulation will definitely change your draft… might hold off on any super permanent mods till that happens. Nice build 🤙🏽
Love the girl scout match you used to light the fire.
I run a flue damper in my Hearthstone stove. Because I have 28’ of flue pipe and the stove would over temp. Just cleaned the flue after 2 seasons and it was very clean.
I agree they have their place. I am just not a fan of them
Great fab job. When trying to limit or slow the input try some steel wool. I am amazed how much you can choke a fire down and still produce heat. Nice shop!
That’s a good idea. We might try that
Looks great, you could enclose the top of the bucket and exhaust then fill with sand to dissipate and create a heat battery.
Interesting idea
NO HEART FOR YOOOOOU
Sweet stove. Have burned tons of wood in big Jotuls. I’m not quite with you on the flue damper. With well seasoned wood flue damper is great to see you through the night so long as you’re burning hot & clean. Sometimes the draft is just too much.
Thanks. I have multiple stoves and have never needed/wanted a flue damper. Just my preference
NO HEART FOR YOU! this guy is like the soup Nzi if you say you are going to build one or make remarks saying other ideas lmao
That's fricken awesome!!! love to see a loader bucket like that, or even a S.E.E. bucket like that.
An awesome idea for a worn out Excavator bucket. That bad boy would Radiate some serious heat.
My knees would hate that, but it looks cool
We decided the coolness factor of the teeth outweighs the danger.
Wow cool idea! Love finding things like this it expands my idea list each time lol. GOOD STUFF THANKS FOR POSTING!!
Thanks👍
That is really neat, get it fine tuned and that will be awesome 💯
Run. Some water lines through it …for a steam engine ..to run a generator… with air compressor…three way use of the wood being used…. Something to think about !!! ( pizza oven attachment…lol. )

They are handy
I'll agree with the flue damper on non air tight stoves.
However, when not in use, they restrict the amount of cold air coming in the building via the chimney and stove.
But if the stove is indeed airtight…you shouldn’t have cold air coming through anyways
Coolest wood stove I have ever seen…
A chimney that looks like the stick on an excavator will make this more unique looking
thats a wicked idea....
This is the coolest thing I have seen on youtube in about a year. Had to subscribe! I know "COOL" when I see it.
Thanks👍

That is an amazing stove made in the great USA 🇺🇸
Great idea 😊, for sure cute looking wood 🪵 stove for us construction guys . 😊
Awesome looking wood stove
Thanks 👍
What a cool, unique build!
Use some sort of magnet n metal to cover that hole or make it adjustable..great ingenuity

DAMN! Thats cool as hell. What a crazy 🤪 great idea. Alabama loves it.
Tell thats not a badass shop stove! So cool!!!
Coolest stove I have ever seen, or should I say hottest stove I have ever seen? Either way, awesome!
Flue dampener keeps all ur heat from going up the pipe it’s not designed to completely shut off flow it has holes in the dampener flap it also keeps from burning so much wood so fast
The intake damper does the same thing if designed properly without the risk of cooling down the exhaust and creating creosote
Awesome idea and build. Only thing I would do is damper on the chimney and on the combustion air intake so you can throttle your burn rate. Again what a friggen nice stove top notch cool.😂
NO HEART FOR YOU lol
I don’t like chimney dampers and I has intake dampers.
Genius idea! What a great stove.
Thats real sweet. I need one for my future shop on my future property i don't yet own!😅👍🏻👌🏻🛠️🔧🔥🔥💥💨
You should feed the fire from below not the side. You only use a flue damper to preserve the heat in the chamber with a dying fire. Basic steam engine principles.
That thing is coooool! great to see your design
I’m an operator and I can say I would love one!! Haha
For some reason, I think Chris from letsdig18 would want this
Hate to stub a toe on the base of the fire place 😂but I love this now I want one made outta a mini excavator bucket for ice fishing shack
Boots required
Should b wearing a B/A welding helmet thats a realy small area to have uf head in while welding. But love this i want one,
Now that is a mans man stove, good stuff
Thanks👍
Amazing work !!!!
"wow" loving this fire for the workshop, well done and enjoy, regards...Keith in Swindon u.k
Thanks!
This is the first i see of this. It is amazing for a big shop.peice of art.are you going to make a small bucket stove for smaller garage 😊
Thanks. I might make a smaller one. I do have another bucket laying around
Why not have the secondary and primary pull outside air in add a gate valve to regulate this should help with drafts from doors and windows
We thought about it. We might in the future
@@WolfpupfabI have help several people set up wood burning stoves and have modified several others so all of the combustion air is drawn from outside and the efficiency greatly improves.
A couple of ceiling fans would drive down the heat in ceiling area.
and again NO HEART FOR YOU
They will be coming after insulation
"perfectly engineered stoves like this" LOL! it is a thing of beauty tho...
BTUs are BTUs my friend, no matter how efficient you think you're making that stove you can't change the laws of thermodynamics. That is a large shop and that is a large stove with a ton of mass. There is no way around it you're going to have to run that stove hot and hard to get the most out of what you built.
I agree but efficiency also matters if you want the BTUs heating the building instead of going out the stack
Very impressive build!
You need a choker on the discharge pipe above the stove and heat.
This is beyond cleaver..... saved to favorites...
Cool stove !!
Very cool. Is there a cooking surface? How hot do the teeth get?
Great video
Got a new subscriber for sure. this is awesome brother. ❤ from pnw oregon
Thanks👍
@@Wolfpupfab yes sir.
Nice construction!
The greatest invention came from necessity
Now Im diggin it. #dirtperfect you see this?
What a cool idea
Looks awesome! Wondering if his insurance is okay with it not being UL approved.
It’s a grey area
How in the world did you come up with that design .its cool as shit I'd love to have something like that
Beautiful welds
At least you had good ventilation and wasnt breathing those heavy metals..lol
Very cool, great imagination,for me way to complicated,still cool
hat is such a cool stove great job
Awesome build
Cool build 🇨🇦
Remember fire 🔥 need item wood 🪵 and air remove one ☝️ and fire 🔥 go out 😊. You need a little oxygen all the time to burn 🔥 right . Beautiful looking wood 🪵 stove with hand 🖐 down . 😊
Flue dampers have been used in wood stoves since the beginning & there’s nothing wrong with them
This is badass!
We just gonna ignore the SxS on the second floor?
That’s a storage shelf
Lol...
Really cool build!
I like it! 🫡
What research/where did you get your info on how to build it/features you used, like the glass cleaner air port, etc.
TIA
Just looking at info on how a lot of manufactured stoves are built and or from experience with them in person
