[Cob] Simple retrofit for cleaner burning earthen/cob oven, proven design in useRay Cirino cobanation at yahoo.comWed Feb 9 14:39:23 CST 2011
dear Shawn, This is what we are talking about. Questioning the way things are when you see there's a problem. Especially when a teacher tells you this is the way it's done and you feel there's something that could be done to make it better. Nice innovation. I feel there's even more tinkering to be done with fireplaces. Ray The Great Challenges we now face as a species present the very opportunities that are giving birth to Ecological, Psychological, and Spiritual Sustainability. ________________________________ From: Shawn King <sbkingster at gmail.com> To: coblist at deatech.com Sent: Wed, February 9, 2011 11:37:35 AM Subject: [Cob] Simple retrofit for cleaner burning earthen/cob oven, proven design in use Following the recent thread, I felt it was time to try and put something up about my own experiments, as there is obviously lots of interest in making earthen ovens more efficient and/or cleaner burning. I love reading about all the tinkering that is going on out there, the cob equivalent of garage startups! My “rocket door” retrofit is simple, made of earthen materials, will make for cleaner burns, and -> You can add it to any earthen oven without modifying the oven! -> I have been using this with my earthen/cob oven with great results, tested and working! -> You can make it yourself with materials you have around in a few hours spread over several mornings. Only three parts, none of them moving, all made from earthen materials. I created a blog spot with photos and detailed directions, " shoveltech.blogspot.com" for this and other experiments I am working on. When it comes to solutions, I am strongly biased towards cheap, simple, local, natural, and fast. Here are the exact addresses for the pages with instructions and photos.
