How to build a tiny masonry heater for the woodshop

[@MrChickadee]

For everyone who wants plans, I would recommend this site, free detailed plans for many many stoves of various sizes, some even small enough to go on a strong wooden floor... eng.stove.ru/products/otopitelno_varochnyie_pechi_ovik/ovik The stove from this video is a very similar design to one built by FireSpeaking, called the "cabin stove" though I don't think they offer plans anymore...

[@tedwalther3140]

Thank you for this. Without speaking Russian, it has been a bit difficult to find which of the ovik models are the ones small enough for a wooden floor.

[@MrChickadee]

[@XavierAncarno]

Thanks. I recently watched a video of guy in rural Russia, showing one of this giant stove Amazing.

[@DataSmithy]

There's a lot of plans there. I can't figure out which one you used.

[@MrStarwulf]

which site?

[@stoveadvice]

For anyone wondering about the design. (It is not clear to most people who don't have experience in building these.) The flames and gasses rise up in the firebox and hit the cooktop "ceiling." They are then pulled to "our right" over the small brick wall laping across more of the iron cooktop. (This can be seen when he lifts up part of the cooktop.) The gasses move down the thin channel on the right of the firebox and actually pass under the firebox. So, in summary, the flame/ gasses go up, (hit cooktop,) then "right," under the cooktop, then straight down, then " turn left to go under the firebox," then up to chimney and out of the house. The most important thing in making this stove is the "damper" inside the main firebox that allows the flame and hot gasses to move directly into the chimney for the first 10 minutes when the "system is cold." Once the chimney is hot, the damper on the left of the firebox can be closed and there will be "enough pull" in the system to pull the gasses up and over the brick wall now "to the right," and then down, and then left under the firebox, and then out. Without this ability to "heat everything up" FIRST, a stove that asks the gasses to "do straight down" will smoke your house out and be unusable.

[@briantrend1812]

as a bricklayer these old methods of mortar /clay slurry/and insulation etc are interesting , Remember guys you have the option of 10% lime mixed with building sand and water to make lime mprtar(instead of cement mortar) if you live in a built up area and dont have access to clay to make slurry and wish to practice your brick bonds and building walls or stove projects like this and repeat until you get it right.. When your work is finished you can crit it and when youre ready to try again just pull it down the next day and brush the bricks dry and wash bricks clean in bucket of water . You can then repeat and practice til youre satisfied with your brickwork project. IMPORTANT don't leave project for longer than 3 weeks or it will set hard and cure as cement and bricks. NB. this doesn't apply to slurry insulation. this is a very clean practical way to practice brickwork in your garden or patio. using the same sand and lime repeatedly. jiust break the project down on completion then use a hard scrubbing brush and separate sand and bricks into two clean piles. enjoy

Love the raw noise of these videos, im an old chick, that tends to work alone on projects like this, (because no one nowadays wants to work this hard or creatively), so im often alone working. What do us-kind talk about at social gatherings? This kind of stuff. Very few get it. We are loners. We are willing to try and fail. We are designers. We use what God has provided. Totally foreign to those that want to flip on a light and watch the tv. I hope to be doing this until the day i go home!!

Great video my son was in the peace corp in Paraguay and on a three week visit my wife and I got to help him help rural folks make fagones(cook stoves) We used clay. sand and cow manure as mortar. The cow manure made the motar really sticky and helped prevent cracking. We used unfired clay bricks and constructed it a lot like yours. We made the chimney bigger and taller so we could put in an oven box. He revisited his site 6 years later and the stoves he helped build still worked fine, Did you ever look at my you tube on building my log cabin? log cabin building-tour Your work is much more refined Love your work Dave

[@chrisalbrecht7342]

I love the detail you put into every motion of your craft. One thing I have learned, wet your bricks in a bucket before mortaring. You might have done so, I couldn't tell from the video. Really impressed with your knowledge at a young age, you have taught me quite a lot! I have been in the historic restoration trade for many years in New England. I know my trade through the love of the craft. I am fortunate enough to be able to do quality work. I particularly like the charred siding

[@jeremynelson8496]

Making the fire gases go up, over, down, over again, and then up the chimney will certainly make the most of the heat but I'm sure that smokes the place up until everything gets heated properly. Clever and nicely made.

[@izzyplusplusplus1004]

nah, just put a small fan in a window facing in. Instant autodraft.

[@lucasriley874]

With masonry heaters when firing up a cold unit it's common to use an access hatch to build a tiny fire inside under the chimney, just a little paper and wood, this gets some draw action going so when you start the fire in the firebox you don't smoke out the cabin. Once these kinds of units warm up they stay warm for hours and hours after the fire is out, as long as you don't let it completely cool down between burns it should be fine to light your next burn in the firebox.

Great work mr chickadee, just a question : arent you afraid of the fire destroying the clay joints ? We build here in Europe similar stoves, but for the burning chamber we were advised to use refractory cement insted of clay+vermiculite for this place... Outside we used clay as you did...

[@Wateringman]

I have only "assisted" an acquantence once in my life to build a masonry heater, and though supposedly a distance of 4" must be left from any combustible material, he made the distance 13". He said to me he left that clearance both to be able to put a surface later to refract heat back from the wall for more comfort, but that it also made it easier to dust behind the stove. What clearance does yours have Mr Chickadee ?

[@MrChickadee]

This one had about 12"

[@country4lyfe365]

Very innovative., resourceful. You have in direct heat and direct. Great video.

[@chanding]

Hey @Mr. Chickadee could you please explain your reckoning for a masonry heater over a rocket mass heater, I know they have some overlap but I'm interested in your thinking? :) I will be building a heater for my own studio and had thought the mass heater would be fantastic, altho seeing Cabin Talk having to remove hers 🙄. Many thanks for your mindful making :)

[@MrChickadee]

Well, to me, a RMH is just a reinvention of a wheel? They both do basically the same thing, hot efficient fire, extra burn chamber and retain heat in thermal mass, the RMH just seems like a hobo version someone thought was needed...I dont know why anyone would need the barrel and all the daub if you can just use clay bricks and clay mortar?

Mr Chickadee, I have watched and enjoyed your videos for a long time. Please keep up the good work. Please consider for THIS ONE video, adding a voiceover explaining what's being done, because after watching the video a couple times, i have no idea. I expect it's all very clear to people who are educated in the subject of "masonry heaters", but it's completely opaque to the everyman that you are normally so good at addressing. :) * How does the smoke get to the chimney column from the burn column? * Why is the burn column not as wide as the stoking hatch? * How does air get INTO the burn column? * What's the purpose of that snail-trace of bricks atop the base layer? (Does it feed in air or remove draught or what?) * Why's that one brick protruding into the initial burner column near the top? * What's the fuzzy stuff you added to the (I presume) clay? * Why use raw (unsettled?) clay instead of lime, or mortar, or concrete? * It appears that after layer one the levelling doesn't matter anymore. Why? (During the base, you show the levelling explicitly, then later shots appear to show a very uneven stack of bricks ) * At 8:23 there's clearly a hole in the (downflow?) side of the brickface. Is that air in? What keeps the smoke from going out? A similar duct exists across the gap, but neither t gap nor either duct are clear in their purpose. Etc. I am always impressed by the production of "manifest" instructional videos like yours and Primitive Technologies', but I think you might have left some of your audience far behind on this one video. -A longtime fan

There's rocket-mass heater; then there's mass heater; this is the latter! Still heats up, and stays warm a long time!!Good show!

[@homesteadtotable2921]

If I ever build myself a cottage, cabin, or a new, bigger homestead farmhouse, I'm putting in a masonry heater, or a couple, depending on the house layout... I can skimp elsewhere and have a kitchen built out of pallets, but I won't skimp on proper heating like the stuff I grew up with. When I immigrated to the United States, I used to think people's firewood piles were a 10 YEAR supply, because I was used to these things that only need 2-3 cords per year to heat up the house, rather than 20+ cords. The cost savings are considerable, if spread out over the lifespan of the heater, but all I ever hear from Americans is "rocket mass, rocket mass, rocket mass..."

[@jerButler87]

Awesome work! I love clay mortar! Far superior to cement mortar in this application. Where do you get those doors and how do you install them? I'm also a bit worried about not having any air flow underneath the heater. I watched a masonry pizza oven burn a trailer down one time because it was built directly on top of wooden pallets and I've heard lots of stories of people's houses being burnt down because they built their stove too close wood. It can take several years, but exposing wood to heat will decrease it's ignition point to where it will catch fire when you least expect it. I'm guessing the vermiculite clay mix gives it enough insulation to not have to worry about it?

[@MrChickadee]

Hi Jeremy, The door was from ebay I think, it has little metal tabs you just insert between the brick as you mortar them up. Lots going on here, for one, the firebox is shoe box size, most heat goes up into the cook top and surrounding brick first, cooler flue gasses do heat the lower bell portion but not anything like the direct heat of a mass fire in a large pizza oven. For two I feel the insulation layer is enough. There is two brick space of air gap under fire box, and this is a flue gap for hot gas but not as hot as the direct fire.

[@jerButler87]

@@MrChickadee if you feel like you've taken the proper precautions, then that's good enough for me. I just would hate to see anything happen to that beautiful shop of yours! I like the idea of raising the firebox up so it isn't in direct contact with the bottom of the stove. Is the stove design your own? I'm usually not much of a Safety Sally, but I am a believer in understanding the risks to help avoid catastrophic failure. Many people don't know about the ignition point of wood being lowered slowly over time as it is exposed to heat. So they fire up their stove for a year or two and that lures them into a sense of security until one day the unthinkable happens.

[@tedwalther3140]

@@JayCWhiteCloud Thank you for this comment. Earlier on, someone asked where to get the plans, and people were saying "just watch the video". You give good reasons why that isn't enough if you are a beginner. This doesn't seem like a kuznetsov stove, and someone linked to the Missouri Masonry stove, but it doesn't look like that. If the plans are open source, good, but if I can buy them somewhere, I'm happy to do that too.

[@jerButler87]

@@JayCWhiteCloud Yes, my warnings were mostly aimed toward the novice. I know Mr. Chickadee well enough to know that he has thought through the design thoroughly.

Hi, liked the video excep that in parts it was too dark to really see what you were doing, the layout of the bricklaying. Do you have instructions / plans I could download somewhere? thanks
