This
course will teach you how to
construct a wood-burning stove out of recycled materials quickly
and easily.
Suitable
for home, workshop, motor-home, yurt, shed or canal boat. Learn
how to design, build and install a strong, effective, durable stove
for your own needs.
Gas bottles,
for example, can be found at scrap yards, but they can't be crushed
or recycled, and if they are old or slightly damaged, can't be returned
either. They can be given a new life as a wood-burner though. Stoves
can also be made from other reclaimed metal objects.
