very nice build query thoe what is that cap on the secondary air pipe for as we leave ours open for the air to heat up and produce second burn inside the vortex

gadily:

Tube shut off in front so air can only come from outside , that way  I can regulate the air flow.
I'm just guessin on things, this stove is really the brain child of Trying2hard , who I thank.

Spectators are nice for moral support and can haul me to safety! Very Happy

Good one. Hope to see end results and hearing from you again in future post. I too, have looked at this design and based most of my drawings and mock ups behind Trying2Hard's designs. Let us know what worked good for you and what didn't, if you don't mind. Thanks again for posting.

Nice stove.

How do you remove the ashes and how frequently? Could you please show us details on how you assembled the air tight glass? thanks.

Will take a few pics of glass etc. later today, it's nasty outside right now but will get out later.
Ash removal frequency, I really will not know till I actually use the stove more after it is completed. This was the first burn.
I may add a perforated/elevated  tray under the fuel?



thanks
Bill

Bill just run your stove until the ash gets well over an inch deep.

I just kept building fires upon my old ash and would clean mine out every two or three weeks, sometimes four weeks.

It reduces it to a fine talcum like powder.
