Making progress with this latest design of Peter's. My question goes on from here. If I do the stove exactly like what has worked best, (peter's testing) what is the best step from here? to carry on..... Hopefully my photo shows up. Luckily on my part I have access in my Plasma shop to make "plates" shown here to hold the stove off the floor, as well as laying on top of the stove. I can add the barrel, shown ghosted in photo, with the fairly large cut out, where the outlet of the stove would be. -OR- There is enough space I could make some fairly traditional cement mass work to route flue =OR- with the barrel in place, I have 100's of 4" square granite blocks each 1.125 thick, that I could wrap around the stove -OR- Just about anything that is suggested. The top plate from the front curve to the rear is 37" deep. This shape came about because it is what I have already got done from past stove work, and would like to reuse..
the size was/is the 6" open system, and the pipe shown here is 8" and my chimney inlet is 8" round as well, leading to central chimney 1' away that is 8" square, 35' tall with huge draft almost always available. I guess I can't get just one photo to show... suggestions?

I guess I can't get just one photo to show... suggestions? You'll need to host the photos somewhere else and add a link to them in your post. Google Drive is my personnel preference since it does not bombard the viewer with ads.

This works for your picture. Just copy and paste this code into your post: [img]https://i.ibb.co/2Y9rDZk/dsb2-with-plates-and-barrel-b.jpg[/img]

Hello Scott, It would probably be a good idea to open a new thread when there are questions that will be specific for your design rather than clarifications about what Peter has done for his design. As for your questions about how best to extract the heat the answer will be dependent on what your heating needs are: Do you want instant heat that disappears soon after the fire goes out, then go for the tower of barrels, but use 3 for a 6" system with that big a chimney. If you want longer term lower temp heat you want to trap it in mass of some sort (granite or cement are fine), here too you will need to calculate your ISA.

I guess I can't get just one photo to show... suggestions? I've seen the picture, it can be done this way, yes. One comment though: place a square duct or something like that on the exhaust opening of the box, in such a way that it is ever so slightly higher than the placement of the barrel exhaust. This will prevent short-cutting to the chimney. I'd think it would be best to follow Esbjorn's suggestion and start a new thread about your implementation. I can do the moving of posts for you, what do you want to call the thread?

I can do the moving of posts for you, what do you want to call the thread? I will ponder this a bit more and draw in something to do just as you stated... going to make sure I have all the pieces, that I think I have... So in short I will do a new thread, and go for something like "heat collection of DSR2" Or something simple. thanks

Scott, i would move the barrel backwards, otherwise it will be a pain to reload.
