If you're building the stove from ground level up (foundation and all), you should have PLENTY of room to achieve your height restrictions. Rocket...
Stainless will last longer than other steels, but it will burn out too. Don't really need to worry about it with the little cook stoves, but when...
Firstly, metal will NOT last long inside a Rocket Stove burn unit.. The high temperature (1000 C. +), high velocity, high excess O2, low carbon...
Thanks Danial, We plan to do the build Oct. 3-5. I'll get back after with results. In the mean time, I'd like to extend the offer to you (and...
I've been using a 15 gallon tank on it's end for the last 2 years running.. Granted, what we have been using is a little different than this newer...
