Everything Nice Space Heating Wood Gas Stove
Summary: Portable space heater made from a chimney charcoal starter, a cookie tin, and an aluminum pie plate. Based on Everything Nice Wood Gas Stove design by WorldStove.Com. One fill of pellets burns steadily for 1h15m. No visible smoke and no smell detected during the burn even when looking straight down over the stove. Only hot air rushing up. Safety Precautions: I would recommend use only in well ventilated locations and for short periods of time. Do not use if there are unattended children around. Do not place in any location where something can accidentally catch on fire. Do not leave the fire unattended even for a few seconds. Have fire extinguishing equipment ready. In addition to the danger of an open flame, there are also well known health issues with burning wood in enclosed spaces. I have two carbon monoxide detectors nearby (plug-in and battery operated) and so should you. Fuel – hardwood pellets. per 40 lb. bag. Starter – 4 gm wax flakes topped with 20 charred pellets and 2 ml alcohol squirted on individual charred pellets using a syringe. Burn time: 1 hour and 15 minutes. No ash inside or outside of the stove after the burn because the pellets turned to char, not ash. But there is a nasty smell in the inside can and an oily tar substance sticking to the inside surface. The aluminum pie plate and the cookie tin remained just as strong after 4 hours of total burn time as before. No sign of deterioration. I suspect the first to go would be the metal around …

As you already said, using this gasifier in closed rooms is f***ing dangerous! Carbon monoxide kills you fast & ugly.
Thanks for the vid. I’ve been trying to find other examples of that stove design.
I’m with Hardy404 though, I wouldn’t use these stoves indoors, and I really wouldn’t be encouraging anyone else to by referring to them as “space heaters”
Make sure you open your windows and let air in- That can kill you. Great stove tho- thanks for the post! Stay safe!
Please be aware that even with the doors and windows open, if there is no draft (e.g. in a basement), you can still get poisoned by carbon monoxide buildup. Always operate the stove with a working carbon monoxide detector and everyone should be aware of headaches, dizziness, chest pains, and other warning signs.
Highest carbon monoxide generation probably comes from the smoldering charcoal once the flame is out. Even one or two breaths of concentrated carbon monoxide could knock you out.
