On-topic -- heating my garage shop on the cheap.
Last winter I used a wood stove in my shop. Worked fine, but took up too
much floor space, once the stove, clearance around the stove, the wood, the
hatchet, the kindling, etc., were taken into account.
I'm wondering whether the little stove could be put in a small outdoor
"shed", and heat from the stove transferred to the shop somehow. I'm
thinking of a pumped hot water system, requiring stove, some pipes
installed in the top of the stove or maybe in the flue as well, a pump, a
radiator, and connecting piping and insulation. I already have stove,
wood, pump and radiator, though I would need to construct a shed or move
and modify one I have already.
Any thoughts? Is there a better way -- on the cheap? Outdoor wood stoves
START at $1000 to purchase.
