Do-It-Yourself Double Barrel Stove Kit
If you want to heat a garage, shop or other outbuilding with a wood stove but don't want to spend money on a commercial unit, you may want to check out this new do-it-yourself barrel stove kit that'll turn two 50-gal. barrels into a high-capacity wood-burning stove.
  Critter Blankets Ltd.'s kit makes it easy to convert an ordinary steel barrel into an economical, high-output wood-burning stove.
  "Barrel stoves have been around for some time, and provide a lot of heat. But the problem is finding good, sturdy parts to use for the door, legs and pipe connections," says Ivan Miller about his kit.
  Instructions tell how to drill or cut holes to install the legs, door and the flue collar assembly in place. All the parts except the barrel itself are supplied, including screws and bolts. "Once all the parts are in place, all you need to do is connect the stove to your flue pipe or chimney system," says Miller.
  The second barrel stacked on top of the first captures heat before it goes out the chimney.
  Double-barrel kit sells for $108 plus $18 S&H. If you have an existing single-barrel stove and want to add a top barrel, you can order a top-only kit for $35 plus $11 S&H. A single barrel kit is available for $73 plus $15 S&H.
