thanks for tuning in too busy trucks weather report this morning it'll be I
can't believe it's this cold followed by a wintry mix of I can't believe it's as
cold and why is it this cold for your afternoon drive home you can expect I
can't believe it's this cold oh yeah that's the chickens finishing off my
Monsanto stew this is its third day and kind of hate eating stuff on the third
day and just a little bit left they seem to be liking it so far no extra thumbs
or third eyes okay I've got em all full on my legs good and that is a 25-degree
angle and I know that because I now have an angle gauge so my next step with this
stove is to weld the legs on and uh oh my water's boiling sorry chickens it's
going to be a little while now don't let that cool them don't you no no no that's
hot don't bring no sorry about the interruption I had to shut it down and
get my dogs on here they are fixing to drink that ball of the hug water I don't
care if they bring jinkins water but what it was blowing okay what i mean he
did this is how the leg you're going to go right away just like that and what I
need to know measure for equal distances around here starting from the chimney
I'm going to measure out and I'm probably going to want
like right about here and here and two on the back side just the same distance
apart but let's see where the metric that takes me in the meantime I've got
to drink my oh crap that's good coffee this is not frog toad coffee though
however christmas is just around the corner all right let me get this
measured and I'll start tacking these on okay what I've got is 34 inches around
here divided by four leaves eight and a half inches between each leg so I'm
going to start at the center of this feed chute and I'm going to measure for
two quarter I would in each direction and that should put me at eight and a
half inches apart and then I just measure 8 half inches from the other two
from these two legs to the back legs and that should space them equally apart
we'll see
well I don't know how this happened but the legs are exactly the right distance
apart we'll have to look into this see what went wrong with my math
looking good now what I'm going to do is turn it over fill it up with vermiculite
and well the bottom on let's see a man i'm going to will the handle on
and then on the top on the top i'm going to weld some cross pieces as a pot stand
off and then it's off to the paint and body
the insulation is what makes it a rocket stove Kevin Bacon have shown that you
can use it like a rocket stove up insulation but the insulation definitely
gets the fire up hot enough work creates the gases that rocket stoves well the
whole premise of Iraqis code is once it reaches temperature it uses the gas to
cook and not the wood would create the gas which is why the height is so
critical type of the chimney too low and you're not burning all gasp too high and
the gas is burning up before it reaches what you're cooking
but probably two years researching
experimenting I won't say perfecting but
I've worked with these rocket stoves for quite a while now and I think I
understand the science behind hook with this little boy
already I'm going to smooth that out will the bottom out of this a handle the
pot standoffs clean it all up and then instead of like I said off to the pen
buddy
that's got to be as interesting as watching grass grow what made the UH the
tabs that are going to go on the top of the stove for the the pot standoffs and
I'm going to grind some corners on them take the sharp pages off
I don't you are booth fantasy my rep got it freezing
here I'm gonna do all 40 okay these are the tabs that are going to hold the
handle that I'm going to turn on my lathe here in a second
I'm what I use a quarter-inch boat the whole headlights off using a 9 30
seconds trumpet
all right we're getting there now I'm going to get a piece of wood and we're
going to turn that handle on the lathe
all right I'm no master Turner so uh I'm going to knock the edges off of this AB
drop drawing a line here the width of my hand so that's how wide it's going to be
let's just see if we come up with her
you
I'm going to move my rest in now that I've got the this is round I'm gonna
move a rest in a little bit alright I'm going to mark the end to this right now
alright let's just come up with something here
alright I'm going to put some uh let's see
think about I put some are groups in this
really sorry
all right to stop this I'm going to move my wrist away that I'm going to get some
sand paper will sand it up
I have to stop this have a look at it
all right I'm going to cut it I'm going to stand it I want to put a couple of
coats clear on it and then we'll go back to the shop with the heat and finish
welding everything up well the tabs on it for the handle will the pot standoffs
on and then we'll take it to the paint and body guy I hate dealing with him you
such a jerk I think it's a paint fumes all right I got two things left to do
this I'm going to cook these legs off flatware when it's upside down it'll be
square with a with the floor whatever we're sitting on and then I got to make
a draft plate a floor plate for the feed tube here no big deal I'm not going to
wha it's just I just gotta cut a piece of metal but right now i'm going to cut
these off come on square
there's one I'll do the rest of them like that turn it back over there we go
the next time you see this it's going to be yellow and black let me show you the
handle there's the handle I haven't putting a clear coat on it yet because
uh I've got my clear over there near the stove warming up it was in my other shop
already I'm going to put some tools away in here clean up a little bit drink cup
of coffee and come back and paint let's give you a profile already I got a two
more coats yellow two more coats of black to put on I've got the handle here
but it's got to take me too late I'm gonna be working on this too late
tonight and I want to go ahead and get this video up so people can see it for
the you know settle down to supper and watch little TV I got my I got my wood
stove cranked up I got my fan blowing air around here it's taken about two
hours in between each coat to dry and I will finish this tonight all except for
the floor plate but that it just take me a few minutes to make but this is what
it's looking like
BOM chicka wow wow all right i will show you a quick clip when this is one
hundred percent done I sure would like to paint or put a prepper stock 2014 or
prep you know in a curve and 2014 Shane with sulfur City design if you got any
ideas that would be pretty pretty cool between here and here is about right at
11 and a half 12 inches and this pipe itself is on the outside is about 11
inches wide alright I'm going to go ahead and put this video up I just
picture it with that nice stain homemade handle there and the floor plate and the
and the bottom of the feed tube there ok thank you for watching it's been a fun
project a lot of work this is I'm calling it Moore's mo ARS mother of all
rocket stoves this thing will last several lifetimes and I hope whoever
gets it really uses it because that's what it's meant for thanks for watching
