Fantastic diy waste Oil and Wood burning stove heater.

[@GerrysDiy]

I'm really impressed with this small but powerful 5 Kw Diesel Air heater for the smaller workshop / camper van. Amazon UK amzn.to/2K9DUIZ .. Amazon USA amzn.to/2RFRfg8 I recently did a review on the heater on my channel kzbin.info/www/bejne/hH-YnWaCraikjNE Check them out here Cheers Gerry😀👍👍

[@outbackenduro7418]

One of the best parts of this stove is what u used for the inspection glass, very very clever !!

[@goinginsane37098]

What is the inspection glass made of? I came here to ask or find that

[@bmiles2011]

I like the simplicity and honesty.

[@bobvedder2451]

I live in Alaska, i enjoy your video, and am building a drip waste oil burner using your idea.

[@gerryangus7305]

I am very happy to see someone took an idea and made something of it . and am always happy to give options so you don.t feel you come to a dead end . keep up the good work .LOL

[@goldwing4221]

Gerry the best oil/wood burner combo of all the vids of various types on the tube more of your building methods cheers

[@learnsomethinguseful]

Thank YOU for showing us how you did this. I know there are quite a few of us looking forward to your next vids! Excellent job well done!

[@GerrysDiy]

Thanks. Boiler project video available tomorrow. Cheers

[@jmschull7184]

I built a waste oil heater from a propane tank last year from plans I got at Mother Earth News. It's a totally different design and only rarely does it produce "savage" heat , as you put it. I'm going to modify it to work as this does. TOTALLY impressive!! I can't thank you enough for the great ideas you gave me!!!

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi guys. There are some new playlists in my channel to make it easier to follow the progression of these waste oil heater projects both Ozzirt type and the Forced air blower type. Cheers Gerry

[@damoltd1]

Been watching your videos. Built a rocket stove few years back now thinking of converting to the oil burner. With the principle of the exhaust running along the workshop floor to act a large radiator. Nice to see someone else from Wexford.

[@erikdale9145]

Gerry's Waste Oil Burner Gerry, any new projects? love stove

[@larrybahler6828]

Hi, now you have a great use for LP tanks, that many people discard every year. Thank you for this great info. Stay safe and enjoy life!

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi Larry. These old propane tanks make a cheap solid fuel or waste oil heat source with huge heat output. Thanks for the comment Cheers.

[@keithnoneya]

Really well done and an awsome build Gerry. If you weld some 4" (10cm) tubes through the top or wrap them around the top. Then you can put a fan behind them and blow air through them. My dad used to work in a two bay garage up north in the states when I was a kid. That stove got that two bay garage so hot we would have to strip down to our T-Shirts in the middle of winter. Keep up the good work. Keith

[@jimdahl5168]

Thanks for the great video series. It's hard to believe you aren't forcing air into this to get the high temperatures you are achieving. I have the materials lying around and I think I can build one similar to it. Thanks again!

[@bygeorge328]

This is definitely one fantastic stove build, the best I have seen yet. In fact I don't see how you could possibly do any better than this. Great job...thank you for your videos and God bless you.

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi George. The stove really outputs a serious amount of heat if you need it and if the oil is dialed down it will it will tame it also. It's great that it runs on solid fuel as well. Cheers

[@EfstathiosOuranitsas]

well done Gerry. excellent builds my friend. keep the work up. aj england

[@Steve1961P]

Add another American watching and enjoying your video's. I want to build some type of heater like this to heat my inground pool. In the end of this video you say you plan on building a boiler or hot water heater.. So I am on my way to watch the rest of your video's and check out your website... Cheers!!

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi Steve. I did connect this burner up to a mock central heating system and I was able to heat 80 Us gallons 300 Liters in about 1 hour producing about 22.5 kw to the water and maybe another 5 to 10Kw from the burner. I made 3 videos of it running here's a link to one kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3bXZKV_o5p6f7s. With the newer burner from the latest videos it would be very easy install it into this type of central heating boiler. The boiler in this video was 70k btu and I maxed it out but even if the boiler had been of a higher outputsay 120 k btu 36kw I could have maxed it out too, easily. Hope this helps Cheers Gerry

[@Goodellsam]

I'd love that for my greenhouse. I need to add a closed loop, recirculating, water heating for my aquaponics.

[@danielsilvis203]

Thanks Gerry!

[@TrailBusterBrute1]

You a creative and talented guy. I was building a Mother Earth news waste oil heater but I think I'll modify the design now. I have trouble getting waste oil, though. The companies won't sell it to me due to concerns about environmental terrorism. And it isn't free anymore - it has value.

[@Pavelpechi]

Может быть и я такую когда-нибудь сделаю! супер.

Great job. Try using automotive headerpaint (exhaust manifold paint) to paint it

[@bobvedder2451]

I am making a drip iol burner similar to yours, thanks for the idea! Bob from fairbanks alaska.

[@zoltarp]

Subscribed from Virginia USA I like the concept, I have a lot of waste oil laying around and the cost of kerosene is about $5 a gallon so I think I might as well get something back from my expensive motor oil.

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi zoltarp. I put a different type of burner in this propane tank stove and it is a very easy build and has a much smaller profile but the same output. Have a look and see what you think. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4KqpZ9ubJKra5o Thanks for the comment Cheers Gerry

[@tonyshaw7389]

Good job again thanks

[@randallmarsh446]

I really like this design it looks really well planned and there seems to be no unburnt fuel wasted going up the stack,, thats what really got my attention as all the fuell is burned in the burn chamber and not being built up inside the exhaust pipe creating a possible chimmney fire..

[@SynKronos]

Great job. I agree, baffles will definitely improve on this. What about giving it wings fixed toward the rear to act as radiator panels? Hey you could maybe even set up an oil preheater for when it’s very cold.

[@GerrysDiy]

Great point! Cheers Gerry 👍

[@paulnunya4939]

im going to build one a lil bit smaller with an old compressor tank good job

[@keithdear9757]

Hi, Gerry try high temperature car exhaust paint for painting the stove, it might last longer. Keith

[@patrickmcevoy4815]

great stove Gerry

[@glumpy10]

Excellent set-up! I particularly like your innovative use of the Pyrex dish. It's both handy to see the flame and one of the nice things about having a fire. The crackling sound is water in your oil. That will reduce your heat output... if it matters at all. Dry oil does work a LOT better in these burners. If you were interested in efficiency at all, you could run your Chimney pipe horizontal for a good few feet before ducting it out. You would find there is a lot of heat coming off that which would now be wasted. If you also had a small fan blowing along it, the heat would be better dispersed around the area you are heating. Congrats on a job very well done with this. It's definitely the neatest and most innovative burner of it's type I have seen. You have thought it through very well and come up with a great set-up. Great explanation and who doesn't love an Irish Accent! Well done to you Sir!

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi Glumpy10. The first section of flue had a second internal wall but I removed it so as to emit more heat. The single wall cladding on my shed really needs to be insulated so that the heat stays around longer, another to do for the long list. Thanks for the comments Cheers Gerry

[@GerrysDiy]

Picobyte Hi picobyte. It does sound like a deep fat fryer in a chipshop or McDonalds. Lol. I suppose if the design was tweaked a bit it would be possible to cook on it. Thanks for the comment. Cheers Gerry

[@orlandopereira4320]

looks like it works great.

Hi Andy. Some Rashers and sausages while messing or working in the shed sounds great. Just need the plasma and the old sofa because if I spend any more time in the shed I guess after the divorce thats where I will be staying. Lol If I find an oil barrel with a detachable lid I have something in mind and it would have a flat top. Tried today to get one but no luck. Slainte Gerry

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi mtngoat58. It really is a great project and makes a ton of heat. I am working on a modified version today and will post a video soon. Cheers

[@mtngoat58]

cool cant wait to check it out

[@lowolds98]

I dont know if it's said before, but for your paint problems the solution may be a mix from graphite and boiled linseed oil. Mix both together for a creamy consistency, paint your heater with it and then you have to burn it in. I mean you have to fire your heater up after painting. This is a very old recipe here in germany for use on every kind of ovens, heaters, smokers and so on... Dont know if it stands the 1000°F your heater reaches, but its cheap to test it on small sheetmetal which is heated and then you see the result. Give it a try :-) BTW: Your waste oil heater is one of the best/nicest i've seen so far!

[@worthypook]

Like Carlos said, use VHT automotive header paint. Nice work! Nice video!

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi worthypoo. I will be painting it this week and I will get some header paint. Odly enough the stove cost me nothing to make as I had everything here. The paint will be the only cost other than welding rods and leccy. Cheers Gerry

[@soxnut]

Awesome build! Thanks for sharing, I would love to build one of these

[@jameslamb4573]

Just happened on this video by chance after looking for ideas to convert an old propane tank into a wood-burning stove. Brilliant concept and, without seeing the earlier six episodes, what looks to be an elegant build. Good stuff! I understand that vapourising the waste oil is the key to its heat output and wondered if pressurising the oil and "injecting" it to the burn chamber might improve efficiency, the only downside to this would be having to filter the waste oil thoroughly to remove any "lumpy bits". Just off to watch the build from the beginning, cheers!

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi James. A siphon nozzle setup would work well if you are atomising the oil for ignition. It would be easy enough to convert a conventional oil burner but would require a compressor as part of the kit. A big advantage with that setup is that it could be timed to come on automatically without needing a manual ignition. I might do a video on a siphon nozzle setup soon. Cheers Gerry

[@randallmarsh446]

@@GerrysDiy Aftr giving this carefull thought i dontsee why you couldnt put a one way check valve inbetween the tank and the fuelsupply line close to the nozzle mabey outside the tank and fuel supply valve to keep the back pressure after the nozzle gets hot and vaporize the fuel inside the line and only givingit a one way exit ,,when the pressure equalizes with both sides the lincheckvalve then the ofuel will automaticlyfeed into the hotside of the feedline and keep a constantflow of pressurised fuel going into the burner,,this way you can also control the amount of fuel being feed into the burner as the fuel will really loose its viscousity and thin out when it gets hot and vaporizes ... mabey installing a surge protection device in the line would insure a steady smooth operation after the system gets up to operating temputure.What do you think about that? This alleviates the need for an outside source to pressurise the fuel. thiere would be no need to run an air compressor to keep the line pressurised and also keep the fuel moving in one direction only and prevent the fueltank from burping and possibly causing a fuel spill ?

[@jwrock13]

awesome...I think I might build one.

[@starrleesimmons4291]

Great idea and craftsmanship. I am in the process of building a 32ft..vardo /railroad car replica, towable RV and need a good off grid heat source. This idea of yours looks very promising. Thanks for sharing, i will watch any progress you care to post. keep up the good work. Randy

[@patcosgrave9682]

The Pyrex bowl was a great idealI ll be makin one over the next few daysAnything critical for the blast tube thanks

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi Pat. I just use 1 inch Malleable iron pipe. Plumbers call it gun barrel or GB pipe. copper pipe inside to protect the oil from burning. You can buy stove glass too if that suits. I used stove glass in my latest minion stove. Cheers Gerry

Really great job.... Keep it simple and efficient. I like to see when someone have a will to twist the sleeves and get on doing something useful. As oppose, dumping the oil on the land. I am more of a biomass/waste wood guy. Never the less, I tend to use waste oil here and there. And one of my projects for the customer consists of combining waste wood and waste oil burner inside of a modified rocket stove heater. Be free to check it out...

Nice stove. Barbecue paint should be able to handle the heat. I've used it on exhaust systems on snowmobiles and motorcycles and it holds up pretty well.

[@jag2039]

Good Job Bro

[@sclawrence00]

My brother works at a industrial paint company called Highland International. They may have a paint that will withstand extremely high temperatures. To my knowledge the smallest quantity they sell is 1 gallon. I don't know if that is too much or just right. Hope this helps, keep up the great work!

[@diymanable]

Thanks mate for a just awesome set of videos

[@NOOne-im5vg]

Very smart

[@calliereynoldz9767]

awesome stove....yes they have stove black from your DIY store. I got it to paint a old potbelly stove that got red hot. Just ask for stove black.

[@TheLimbReaper]

I love this! The Pyrex is a nice touch. If somebody hasn't already suggested it, I'd look for "stove black" stove polish. I used it on my wood stove for years. Don't know if it can be found in Ireland. I'd like to do this in my garage, but I'll consider building a brick enclosure, 14 or so inches high, for the bottom, back & sides with a steel-plate top; just in case of burn-through.

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi Limb Reaper. I tried stove black but as soon as the stove glows red and cools down that's the end of the stove black. I have at this stage tried a few paints but when I crank up the heat the fire resistant paint goes up in smoke. A brick enclosure would certainly make this a safer project. Cheers Gerry

[@mk2sixteen]

Hi Gerry, thanks for making the whole series of videos. Your general thought process is brilliant. It's given me the solution to a few issues I had on my wood burner I made from two of the smaller gas bottles welded together. Now after viewing your burner it's all change here and I'll be converting to a "duel fuel" burner very shortly. I positively love the use of Pyrex bowls (my mrs won't though) Thanks again and a big thumbs up 👍👍

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi mk2sixteen. I did a couple of burners in these videos. In earlier videos I used an Ozzirt type In later videos I made a blower type burner so I could convert a smaller existing boiler. Once made it can fit in minutes and works great. There are 2 disadvantages though noise and it needs power. I went through a few dishes because of expansion of the metal but they didn't mind the heat at all. Once given enough room to expand the problem was sorted. If you get a chance throw a video together and post a link. I would love to see it. Cheers Gerry

[@ppger44]

Good job!

[@gghsusa]

bravo! Good work. I've wondered about using a Pyrex dish for a portal. My waste oil heater doesn't burn that clean but I'm realizing I don't have enough draft due to using a smaller dia flue

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi gghusa. The diameter and the length of flue are the key. It generates more pull on the incoming air which gives you a cleaner burn and more heat if you want it. I am using about 13 feet of flue which is 6 inches in diameter. The pyrex dish is holding up very well currently. Cheers

[@offgridmangogrower]

I'm a little late to the show...luv the pyrex .....how did you seal it in the door...? Also do you have a burner chamber sketch(what part is stainless)..? I'm thinking of using two rotors back to back to improve draft..great stuff...!

[@bobvedder2451]

My welding skills are minimal, but i can learn.

[@PauloRodrigues-zx5hw]

Congratulations on the great job I liked, now tries to mix a bit of seawater and reduces a little the oil.

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi Paulo. When I get water in the oil there can be a flash over as the oil thins out on the water and the flame gets higher. It makes sense to give it a try. I will try it and if it makes an improvement I will show it on a video soon. Thanks

[@The_JEB]

hey Gerry, try some engine enamel paint, its good for up to 1700-2000f of heat. I work at an autoparts store and we sell that quiet a bit

[@GerrysDiy]

Thanks Justin. I'll check it out. Cheers Gerry

[@The_JEB]

Gerry's Waste Oil Burner it should say on the can itself what its good for, if it doesnt as someone that might. the stuff we sell has it right on the front of the can, we have engine enamel paint and exhaust manifold enamel paint, the exhaust manifold pain is good for up to 1700f

[@GerrysDiy]

Justin Bechtel Hi Justin. I put up a video today and the stove I painted last year is looking sorry for itself. Its paint is all but gone. I will check out engine enamel tomorrow. Thanks

[@UbIfLuXuSiBiMOtuS]

ceramic/enamel paint is what I was thinking as well, but doesn't the ceramic paint for manifolds act as an insulator? I think it prevents heat from going in the engine bay. might be a little counter intuitive? I might be wrong though.

[@UbIfLuXuSiBiMOtuS]

there is some heat resistant paint based on silicone resin that is resistant to 800C (1472F) maybe that is an other option?

[@1baywatch]

I build race engines and we use VHT high temperature header paint. It comes in a spay can and is good for 1200 to 1500 deg Fahrenheit. Your local auto parts store should carry it.

[@marccole2825]

Great video collection 1 - 7. I've been looking for info on how to make a workshop heater for ages this fits the bill. I would be interested in seeing how the flue (chimney) was constructed and from what, but that is only a small issue. Overall a fantastic video collection

[@GerrysDiy]

Hi Marc. The flue was just some 6 inch flue that I had here. Its nothing special and once its about 4 meters high and 5 or 6 inches in diameter it will work well. In some of the later videos there is more footage of the flue. Cheers Gerry

[@noelmorgan6855]

Made your oil/wood stove Gerry, works a treat. Was wondering if it was possible to convert an electric/gasstove made from cast iron/steel into a waste oil burner?

[@soulhunter0]

Nice, interesting design. Ever considered using a clay pot/surface to lay the primary combustion chamber with? What is that waste oil you are using? kitchen, motor oil or something else?

[@Duffy153]

nice job.

[@lastchance9097]

Nice stove

[@carlosredmon34]

If you are still looking for a paint that will hold up to the heat, try VHT High Temp Header Paint. It is and Automotive paint used for racecar exhaust headers. It is rated for over 2000F.
