Adventures in eco living #01 … Brick rocket stove version 1

My first attempt at building a very basic brick rocket stove. I used bricks because they were quick and cheap … also easy to salvage or buy.

I didn’t have to cut any bricks … and used a total of 22 (@30p each). It is possible to use fewer bricks … but they act as a good heat store.
