OK, Xavier Put it in with a couple of re-bars attached to the inside of the shell and the top of the frame. Then it is 'attached' but very easy to get at with an angle grinder if it needs to be cut out.
Regards Crispin >That has to be considered but I am afraid people would take it out one day if it is loose. Like you said with the skirt, if it is part of the stove, it will be used everytime. But welding makes maintenance more difficult yes. The top hat shape is a good idea, I'll think about that. Best, Xavier >...How about making a loose frame of 50 x 50 x 5 angle iron shaped like a Top Hat that is a little bit loose, and dropping that into the top of the combustion chamber to protect the brickwork? As they knock it around, it will rattle a bit but that is not a problem. It could be easily replaced and would last a long time. If the bricks get loose, they would be help in position by the frame. _______________________________________________ Stoves mailing list to Send a Message to the list, use the email address [email protected] to UNSUBSCRIBE or Change your List Settings use the web page http://lists.bioenergylists.org/mailman/listinfo/stoves_lists.bioenergylists.org for more Biomass Cooking Stoves, News and Information see our web site: http://www.bioenergylists.org/
