I haven't built one myself yet,I'm planning on it this summer. However,I did look at one a local guy built this last summer and he said it works very well. This is where he got his plans. http://www.deb-design.com/ If you get the opportunity to look at a few of them you might be able to build one of your own design. The guy that built one said he had about $3000.00 in it,that was including a machine shop shearing the plate into pieces.

Don't know if this will help but I've made several of these for the Amish people to use to heat their greenhouses with.

This one isn't finished but it gives an idea maybe. The square pipe out the back is the smoke stack and on this one he is running it back through the water tank and it will come out the front above the door.

I have some pictures of a large one that is finished, if I can find them.
