    The round holes on each side of the door are copied from Tempwoods. Not sure about exhaust. :)

    The OP's pic (thanks Sparky) looks to be fairly quality-made (looks like 1/4 or better" boilerplate steel), albeit ugly. As for the design and function, I cannot elaborate on it. I don't particularly like the door opening up toward the flue, I'd have it open to the side. But who knows, might be an efficient stove.....

    As for the one that Woody posted, we'll lemme tell ya I'm in the market and that stove looks perty spiffy with those stainless glass doors on it! Woody and I will be talking about one of those!

    The stove is sitting on its backside, it slides into the end of one of those 175 gallon oval drums. What we think is the "outlet" is actually a central furnace air inlet and the door opens down. Air is cirulated around it inside the outer 175 gallon vessel. The warm air outlet would be mounted on the top of the outer bigger barrel. The stoves flue is located on the backside facing the ground. If we saw the other barrel and seen it removed instead of a still pic. i believe we would agree it is a very good design.

    Thanks for the info. That makes a lot more sense now.

    The pic in the OP isn't loading for me :(. I'd be interested in seeing a flying woodstove if anyone can repost it :)
