I just put a wood stove in my shop last year, and like you I can't wait for colder weather.  Last year I loved getting up early on the weekends when my wife and daughter were still sleeping, firing up that stove, and making some shavings in a nice toasty shop.

This project got put on the back burner for a while.  I'm finally able to get back to work on it.  I'm trying to finish the stove before winter decides to get here.  I removed all the old paint with a flap sander wheel.






I gave it 2 good coats of high temperature paint.  After I install the damper I'll give it a final coat.  It's starting to look like a stove.

Sure haven't Bill.  I've been wearing sandals to work the past week. 


Thanks Outback Bob.  I can't wait to get my shop smelling like a good wood fire.

Ya must have paid off the Winter Weather Gods. They're holding back on the frigid stuff 'til ya get that wood burner fini!! Take pics of the 1st burn.

Clint....Nice stove you made for yourself there.I know you'll be in the shop the whole time while your stove is burning.Burning only osage or too much of it takes about a 1/4" thick walled stove.It burns very very hot.Maybe this was said earlier too.I've been burning wood for my only heat for 35 years.

I'm well aware of how hot osage burns.  I used it to do some forging this summer.  Dad heated our house with mostly osage when I was a kid.

I get it now!  To open the door, you grab the handle and give it a wrench.
