garage heater

[spike50]

anybody else got their self built heater going yet ?

love mine but the missus always says I smell of smoke everytime I go in now

[spike50]

thinking of entering my garage scene for the turner prize this year , any chance ?

If you smell of smoke, it probably means the stove's not drawing cleanly, and could be puffing loads of lovely CO back into the garage. I'd have a read up on stove flues and see if there's anything you can do to improve yours as Co poisoning can be fatal.

It'll never draw cleanly when it's on its side...
