I appreciate your video. A sheet metal cold camping tent stove is part of my emergency backup supplies along with wood pellets as they are wrapped and are watertight for storage plus you can control your burn time. My secondary backup is a two 200 w solar panel setup and several RAV inverters that will trickle charge directly from the panels allowing my family the freedom to use them in different rooms to power electric blankets and small appliances. My third backup is a dual-fuel generator. My last prep in this regard will be a small biodigester to produce free fuel for not only for everyday household use but, the generator too. Waiting on the land purchase to set that up.
I have been a prepper for 15 years.. Just now working to figure out a better option for heating (extreme cold climate) than a generator. I store 30 gallons of fuel and can run my gen and entire home for a week or so. I use a outdoor wood boiler but NOTHING beats a good wood stove thats in the home. Even a small one.
I love these cylinder stoves. I'll be using one for my permanent source of heat, hot water and cooking in my new 10x20 home in the woods.
Great video. You are so right about shelter, fire, and water. Lack of those things will kill you (especially in cold climates). Your setup is almost the same as mine. I have used my Colorado Cylinder Stove 2 times in winter power outage situations. Both power outages lasted more than 12 hours and the outside temperature was less than 10 degrees Fahrenheit both times. I was toasty warm both times, plus I had hot water for coffee and dishwashing. I love my cylinder stove.
Nice video Ben. Not a prepper either but I don't have a fireplace but have a chimney clean out that I thought if ever lost all power I could vent a wood stove out that opening. Heat could still happen to keep my house and fur kids from freezing. Thanks for sharing the video sir.
Great show
great emergency setup! thank you!
Sounds like you're a prepper and just didn't know it. (That's a compliment+ good video
Thank you so much very nicely done I love it Mama Z on Dad's profile
Really liking these videos lately Ben. Thanks for sharing and ATB Mike
Anyone who ever thought about backup heat and teaches outdoor survival skill would be labeled a prepper by the world at large despite your own self identification.
Solid video. Keep up the good work
You are PREPARED for a grid down emergency just like the rest of us preppers.....that makes you a prepper even though you have an aversion to identifying as one.
Tile board (Hardy Board, Durock, etc.) for floor, wall heat shields, and pass through. High temp silicone baking sheets as a wall gasket. Stainless flexible big truck diesel exhaust pipe. You will need some mounting stuff. Safer than your mother's arms and durable as the pyramids. Relatively cheap if you look around. Have a stove with rare 5 inch pipe, so went this direction. Got a short piece of straight pipe for the damper.
Finished mine today. Thanks! :)
If it is too expensive to install a wood stove in your house. place one outside.
you can always put a coil in the woodstove and pump the heat into your house. With a radiator and a fan, and pump. And we used to have radiators for duce and a half in the army here in Canada so we could run the Duce, and tie the rad into the cooling system on the Duce, thus placing the heater rad in our tents .Keeping us warm. Just top up the antifreeze in the engine. And if the power goes out I am still able to cook outside using the woodstove. If you get massive amounts of snow ,build snow walls around the woodstove to keep the chilly wind off yah while you cook. And use a tarp as a roof. I went this route because the insurance laws here are stupid .And there is no chance of a fire in the house. And in the spring, the walls melt and there is no building permit required for snow. STICKING IT TO THE MAN!!!!! A used woodstove is better than nothing. And in the summer its cooler to cook outside anyway.
Green agenda = more green leaving our pockets and going into theirs.
If you do get lots of snow, Build a snow shed and tarp the roof and place woodstove inside. Just dont melt the damn thing. Just keep your fire constant and regulate it. No permit needed,
What about during power outage?
Great video
Thanks
Wondering if that's chimney piping or some other type of pipe that less expensive....
We use galvanized single wall piping in canvas tents...its cheap...set the stove up outside with the piping and burn it hot to get rid of toxic fumes
You, sir, _are_ a prepper.
Do you silicone or seal your pipe and door....??
Stove pipe has crimps , door on woodstove has fiberglass gasket...no silicone
what's the best wood stove for garages that you can also cook on easy to clean, and environmental friendly with a ashpan that you can probably use for a home or a garage that can reach up to 1800-2,000 square feet ??
bakers choice or kitchen queen amish make wood cook stoves
Thoughts from anyone. I have a gas burning fireplace with a 5" vent through the wall. Would it be reasonable in an grid down no gas SHTF type situation go pull out the glass and either find a smaller woodstove with a 3" pipe that I can put ceramic insualtion around in the wall jack or just put a 5" into it and then knock off the front an extend away then up? I would assume that the exhaust pipes are built to handle the full heat of the gas fireplace which I would think is safe....
If the 5" pipe is safe for gas you would probably get away with a 4" pipe running through it.
Well we normally do not.get really.cold and it stay cold like right now...im worried it hadnt even.hit and already power outage...im not a prepper but am now.
What temperatures are you getting off the sides and the top of that thing
More off the top than the sides...these stoves will easily boil water.
There should be a piece of tin attached to the wall between the wall and stove.
You could use a heat shield to reduce your clearance. This stove is well over 18" from the wall
muffler tape works well
get a collar....that fits hole and pipe...
is this a twin wall pipe?
No...Single wall pipe.
@@bensbackwoods Oh great. I am planning to use a twin wall piece for the section through the window near all the wooden parts to be 100% on the safe side anyway.
👍🔥
I did all this just the way you said and my cabin burned to the ground....,. WTF
Yep there is lot of unprepared or just simple minded Texans. Don't they know freeze n cold may crack water lines in side home when it gets below freezing. For god sake turn off water at the meter to limit damage to their house. Another thing there is 40 or more gallons of water in the hot water heater.for the sake of saving water to drink drain hot water heater into a tote. That's the thing with city dwellers no survival skills. All they know is how to turn up the thermostat or run to the neighborhood market n get dinner. Good video you may have saved someone's life.
A Prepper that’s not a Prepper. That statement makes 0 sense
great information but too many UHHH UMMS in the commentary.
mine keeps having the gasket melt off
What type of gasket are you using?
Dissagree the pipes.. i want Concrete sheet in window.. 1 inch/ and i want Double wall pipe in the window and up the draft... also if really cold area: i want 6 feet pipe/ 8 inch.. directly side ways !!!! yes will smoke a bit till going... then captures alot heat in building .. then drop pipe reducer to 3 inches double wall = cheeper and not as hot at this point... reducer keeps more heat inside as well ... notice.. most old heaters use 3/4 closed baffold/ reducer .. only need 1/4 way - /more adjustable... higher pipe at top is better drawing ability.. + keeps out smoke.. steady draw! will cost more cause roof anti fire sheets over pipe and above window! `Heat bricks are 100 % better for never wear out and releases heat if logs o0n it on fire! suks for lasting if walking on it! do direct under it use fire bricks.. rest use normal brick/or old tiles on top brick .. pretty lol . theres a 95 % effic wood heater and a 85 % cook stove.. wish they combine to make 1 great stove!
Living in a VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!!
Thanks that was really motivational.
I love the asbestos wrapped chimney pipe
Info about where to buy one???
Four dog stove, Kni-co stove are the ones I recommend.
Just messen man
