The rattling is known as 'Panting' in large boilers. Basically, the furnace uses all of the air available and then pulls a partial vacuum which then pulls in a gob of air and the cycle continues.

​@@TheyForcedMyHandLE If I had to guess, adding more air to the original stove would have lead to it burning faster and faster, until it was "panting" again, but burning more fuel while doing it. Or more air would lead to the fire just burning hotter and hotter until it either overheated the workshop or set the place on fire

I had coal boilers do this when the front door was opened , it would start huffing , a bit scary to say the least , it would be caused by stirring up the coal and releasing gases causing a sucking of air then a flash burn . Shutting the door would bring control back . I've seen pictures of this type of stove that was used during the big lumber cuts in early America , all that saw dust helped heat buildings at the mills .

Woofing is what's happening there. Same thing happens with room sealed fan assisted gas boilers when they ignite with a thump. It's caused by a lack of air, or rather a lack of oxygen to feed the level of combustion. When some of the sawdust falls down, the sudden increase in temperature ignites the secondary gasses being given off by the wood. That rapidly uses up the available oxygen and if the air supply can't keep up with it then it creates a vacuum which pulls air back down the chimney. When the air drawn down the chimney hits the fuel it reignites and the process repeats. Woodburners really need a throat plate in the chimney to balance the in/out. Makes them more efficient too as the higher temperature will allow the secondary combustion of the gasses. That spanner idea was awesome. Now i need to create a need for one.

@lewis24666

The fire is not drawing air down the chimney causing the puffs of smoke in to the room. Only atmospheric conditions will cause the chimney to work backwards. I agree the problem is not enough oxygen to ignight the gasses of combustion (normaly it goes up the chimney and knowone notices) but when you get sudden ignitions, well gasses, confined space = explosion. A lot of stoves have a Terchary air vent to constantly supply a small amount of oxygen over the top of the fire. Normaly some kind of tube with several holes. It will allso will improve efficiency.

Saw Dust mixed with a small amount of wax, paraffin is best but bees wax works too, load up a metal mold of some sort and use a press to press it into super dense blocks, the wax keeps it together and makes it burn nice and slow, you can break them up too if you want them to burn more easily and faster. It's what i've been doing with my saw dust, shavings, and chips for years now.

While the burning sawdust was pulsating, all I could think about was the explosion at a grain elevator in Chicago in 1935 that killed six people and injured another 38. (No, I wasn't around then, but in the '50's - '80's my father worked just down the street from the location, so I saw the rebuilt silos frequently). Almost any powder suspended in the air will be explosive.

When i was a kid we used to collect this one certain pollen from a "flower", although actually it was more like a stalk or something. When we had enough, we packed some of it into a straw and blow it into a campfire. Nice flames and sparks! :) Yeah, we had to invent things to do while we were camping in the lakes as a child but still we never a dull moment, we always had fun things to do. That and the explosion risk in the old grain mills (we ground our own flower up until the early 90's when small farms were killed off) made us understand at early age that enough of any powder in air could be dangerous.

Had one of these in my woodwork shop, they are brilliantly economical. Mine was the same shape but I used a cavity twice the size, just use a bigger pipe and reduce the air flow. Never had a problem.

Good show! Jolly good show! you have an incinerator for small things also. Be careful with the cresote.

That sort of burner along with Salamanders keeps us guys in business. BTW, that metal gate over your fire exit door defeats the whole point of a panic bar.

A beautiful piece of work there, sir. Everything that you do is a piece of art. I couldn't help thinking by the end that you could put a kettle on top and make a nice cup of tea... or toast some pikelets on a cold winter day...

on exhaust you need damper for dialling slow burn cycle, its dialled by adjusting intake and damper. otherwise a lot of heat escaping through a pipe. hello from eastern Europe )

Thank you for sharing this tour. I’m amazed at both the amount and quality of work it shows. This is one of the most educational, entertaining channels on KZread. Happy New Year!

Being a thrifty Yorkshireman (such as yourself) I'm going to make a suggestion. If the door hinges and catch were adjustable then when the rope seal gets worn you can wind them in to get a tight door seal again and save having to replace it sooner. Measure the length and leave slightly long.Wrap the ends in some rope seal tape to avoid fraying before cutting the rope ends to size then use another piece to join both ends together. Put in with the joint at the middle of the bottom working towards the centre top,both sides at once.This helps to keep both ends tighter together for a good seal at the join and also the rope seal is less likely to be worn and frayed on the ends if its away from the corner. Use rope seal adhesive when fitting so it doesn't keep jumping out when it gets stuck on the stove body during use and you open the door. Baffle wants a slight bend or edge on it to lessen warpage. 👍

Ha!!! We sent a man to the moon and built the SR71 blackbird on the imperial system. Continue on the good work.

Just in time for the great British summer! Good job mate

Puffing caused because of lack of air in burning chamber, also you use only one set up for your whole welding process, that is why door wont to fix your frame, for dot welding less rod speed, for frame welding less power and rod speed. Good to weld only like an inch on each corner and move to another to spread the heat (that is why metal get twisted). Don`t get me wrong, watching your skills was enjoyable and I`m impressed. Great job + good humor, keep it up!!!

You sir are a true craftsman! We have a lot in common. If I may, I'm sure by now you have found out that the thin tubing you made your fire grate out of will not last long.

Nice mods to the stove. Looks like with the pellet maker, you'll have a better deal. The only thing I'm wondering is why you didn't build a draw for the lower door? It would catch most of the ash and be easy to empty. You could even put a sheet metal "Sheetpan" in front so that any ash that dropped would be contained.
