Is there any benefit to downloading it? I love a good old fashioned book, But if the content is identical I may just e book it. I just bought a new house and I'm planning on putting one in the living room.

The only thing you don't get with the PDF is the cover...
Other than that its instant gratification. I believe the print book version is about to be available, but not yet.

Hi,
May be a stupid question, but what's the diffrents between the 3-edition and the book "Rocket Mass Heaters: Superefficient Woodstoves YOU Can Build".
Only 'the edition'?
Thx, Loek Koster

The entire book has been updated, made more comprehensive and brought up to date. Illustrations are more clear and are now self-consistent throughout. Big "case studies" section in the back, detailing real world stoves and choices that get made in each case.
In a lot of ways, it's practically a completely new book.

Does the new edition include details of horizontal box builds and the p/s chanel? No. It covers the basic J-tube only. In the back, there are case studies in which Peter van den Berg and I discuss the P-channel (in our separate pieces) |

That's a real shame is it just a not invented here attitude? The j tube is just so fraught with problems. Everyone I know of being built has been changed it to a side load. Mostly because of back drafting.

There is a little bit of the "not invented here" thing going on.. Ianto has been very resistant to some of the new additions to the J-tube as well, such as the tripwire and p-channel. He also doesn't feel comfortable writing about stuff that he doesn't personally know about. He doesn't experiment with stoves any more and it is quite likely that this is the last edition of the book that he will be a part of. His health lately has been a rather bumpy ride and I think he would rather spend his time with his first love: the garden. If there are to be other books about Rocket Stoves, someone else is going to have to write them. As to the problems with J-tubes, it's our job to find out why and educate people about it! In my opinion, the major problem with them is that they've been a tinkerers stove, with very few solid rules for building and everyone who sees them says to themselves "I can make this better!" without ever having made one by the book first..  My J-tubes work just fine, thank you! Yours should too! |
