ROCKET STOVE


spencer and our friend william spent day #2 working on the rocket stove. william is a mason. he also built the heater in our home. his business is called turtlerock masonry heat and the website is well worth checking out. there are great photos of the many heaters he has built. the heater in our home resembles the elmore design.

the rocket stove is still a work in progress. by this weekend, it will be nearly finished. then we will fire it up to see how it does. our back up plan is to have seedlings in the house if the stove needs more adjustments and work after the test run. having the seedlings in the house isn't ideal but many small scale vegetable farmers resort to some sort of indoor seed starting.
