G’day thought I’d share my brake drum potbelly heater I built over the last few weeks and have just installed in my shed this weekend. It goes pretty hard it was 3°C outside the shed and 27°C inside, with the flue mostly choked.
Also wrote a bit of a how to blog if any one was interested. https://doilygrunge.weebly.com/blog/...otbelly-heater
Hi there doily_grunge,
Very cool, very creative! Can I republish your blog on my shedblog with a link through to your blog?
Cheers, David
Yeh mate that’d be fine. Thanks for asking.Quote:

G’day mate the middle ring just sits over the lip of the brake drums. Check out Brake Drum Potbelly Heater: 13 Steps (with Pictures) I’ve got a bit more info and pictures on there. Hope this helps.Quote:
