eBay woodburner

[trapperman 474]

I’m still collecting pallets I think in the spring I might have to build an extension 

maybe a second floor with ensuite or a dining room and kitchen

I’ve had the burner running till it glows red at the back and no scorching on the wood 

it has a wall plate where it goes through the wall and it’s about 6-8” from the wood so I think it’s fine but I have water handy just outside

Mate you will always get lots of advice on were your going wrong, from folk that like to follow rules and regs, I have an old Gas bottle with a door cut in it and a flue I made from five combi flues stuck together with jubilee clips in my wooden shed, I was informed it would burn the shed down, the rivets I attached the door hinges would melt and a plague of locust would turn my veg patch to dust, well I sit in my shed with the burner going most nights and still no problems, have built a small surround from an Ali road sign I cut up, the flue goes straight out the back and the wood around it gets barely warm, enjoy your pallet shed every man should have one

Brought this woodburner off eBay for my pallet house I built at the small holding 

it was £135 all in with 2 1m flue sections and 2 right angle bends 2 wall brackets and a rain cowl I also got an extra flue section and bend at £12 each

i thought I would take a chance but I tell you what it’s a bloody great piece of kit, really kicks out the heat it’s not the thickest of metal but no thinner than my frontier stove so should last a few years at least and it draws much better with the 5” flue

I like that

 ......... I could kip in there quite happily.
