Thank you!
You count how acceptability of margin of error in your calculations? Because building with brick seems to not be as precise as a cast mold.

Hi Alex, welcome to the boards. The depth of the firebox isn't very important, width and height can stand a deviation of 10% or more but the port/riser ratio is critical. The main air intake differs from stove to stove, mainly because of chimney stack differences.
Those insulating firebricks are very interesting, worthwhile I would think. Although those are maybe too fragile to serve as firebox wall/liner.

All right thank you for the advice. As I already have the bricks I will make some road test with it and I will pirchase hard bricks for the combistion chamber when building it in the new house.
What material are you using for the door, cast iron? Also it might be a stupid question but how many btu's that kind of system will produce?
