What a nice looking stove and instalation. Looks like it is still a virgin.

Grizzley2:

Nope. It's not a virgin -- been burning with it for 2 1/2 months. It's a Newbee though .

how many sf does that pot belly heat. the stove next to the big one?

You have me curious Cato....Where do those floor vents on both sides of the stove go? (are they cold air returns?)

Cato, I really like that hearth and brick work design! It's really sharp and very functional. I like the bump out on the side.
I have a space on the side of mine where I put my bucket of coal when I fill it but that's also the space I put my ash pan when I change it. I can only do one or the other. You have no problem there and the coal is stored neatly in the back. Nice Job!

Hi All, I've read a lot of great info over the past year, and thought it was time for my first post. This is a pic of my Keystoker 90 that I've had running since late October. Thanks to all the great people here who share their time to get us newcomers going.

Cato and JGWalk , you both have some very nice setups.

Nice looking set up But I do not see a Draft control model RC baro in the stove pipe. If you do not have one get one it will keep the heat in the stoker stove and in the house instead of up the chimney also you will save coal . Never Mine see it behind the Tea Pots . But it should be move higher in the Pipe . You should have least a piece of Pipe between the stove and baro.They are design to take the cooler room air from the house to control the draft. Being it is on top of the stove
the air coming of the stove will be hot air not cool air. So it will not work like it was Design to do .

Hi coal berner, I also thought it should be higher up in the pipe. The shop that instructed me on the install specifically told me to put the baro where I did. When I shut it down after the new year to clean it I will look at putting it at the top of the vertical run.
Thanks for the advice, John

New to the forum. Here are some pics of my tri-burner keeping us nice and toasty down in the family room. Will post pics of the bins on the other thread

Some pictures of a summer project, Stove is a Keystoker Baywindow which was a basket case. Also installed a masonry chimney along with a pipe which feeds coal to the hopper from a 55 gallon poly drum that sits outside which requires filling once a week

Wow Roadking thats an awsome transformation, very nice and clean install

The stockings don't get warm with the blower fans on.

bravo, ashcat. that looks great.

ScottD: I did the brickwork myself 30 yrs ago. The chimney I also built and the coal stove is the only appliance on it. I also built a chimney and hearth in the living room that has a Fisher airtight woodstove that has been in use for 25 years. The floor vents on the sides (kitchen hearth) are for forced hot air (oil heat) which is only used when I'am away for the weekend.
