Just asking for a friend. I started out with a 8'x24' gneipol (?) basically a polish version of an ifor Williams flat bed. It's 3x2 timber frame clad in osb to stiffen it. If I was doing it again I'd use 2x1 as I've built alot of shepherds huts since then and it's plenty strong enough with the boards to give it structure. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Borr 4,460 Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 I'm late back into property and still not there yet ,.but dream of man caves and workshops, I openly envy and appreciate friend's man sheds, and most of mine have them, from luxurious tiki bars, to Welsh pubs and my favourite which is a barn with car ramps and oddities. Long live the escapes..... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 29,602 Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 When buying a log burner is there some kind of set way to work out your room/shed measurements in order to determine what " KW " to go for ?....or do you just guess at it ?.......also do they need to be signed off etc or just whack it in with a " if he died he dies " approach ? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Borr 4,460 Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 There's KW formulas if you Google you need to measure rooms etc it's important as you don't want it running full bore as well as you don't want it just smouldering either. If it's private property and not rented think you can do as you please but worth getting chimney swept and maybe a smoke test. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnipper 5,944 Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 I think it has to be installed by a certified (hetas) person and swept by a pro for your home insurance to cover it doesn't it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Quite possibly, I hadn't thought about insurance I made my old man an odd shaped flue to fit through a slot in a barn , he made an insulated wall to turn a mezzanine into a room, it required the smallest of wood burners, two small logs and the room was toasty...

Yes your right ,Sweep gives you a cleaning cert , if you don't have one it can invalidate your insurance Quote Link to post Share on other sites
