Free heat from Sawdust + Vegetable oil .. No Tools Needed
Рет қаралды 2,114,048
3 жыл бұрынFREE HEAT from sawdust and vegetable oil No tools needed. Simple No Tools Needed.
Making a ton of heat for free for heating my shed with these super simple saw dust and waste oil heat logs. This is just a mix of sawdust and vegetable oil that I put into an empty paper bag and simply place in my stove.
This is a simple method of burning free waste oil without any mods to your stove. In this video I show how to burn waste oil cleanly indoors and make a lot of heat using a renewable energy source.
These things work great but you need to be careful and don't take any risks with your home.
Cheers Gerry

Speaking as a retired firefighter, you should include a caveat that explains the negative effects that this could have on brick and mortar flues, as well as those that are not up to or may never get to an operating temperature that will keep the combustible material from condensing in the flue. Also worth noting would be that your flue should be cleaned at least annually, more often if overly rich or if unconsumed deposits accumulate inside of it. Speaking as a fellow that also likes to be self sufficient and looks for ways to waste less material, this is a great way to keep a workspace heated. +1 subscriber for you, look forward to seeing more !

You could do the same thing with saw dust and shredded newspapers and water. Just shred up the newspapers and place in a 5 gallon of water for a few days, stirring twice daily. Drain off the water, add the saw dust and mix thoroughly. Make it into any form of design that you want. I have a press that makes bricks. Or use toilet paper or paper towels tubes as a mold as well. Let dry in the shade for a couple or weeks or until dried. IT WORKS.

Good to see you back playing with fire Gerry (: Missed you mate! I used to have a Pot belly stove about 35 years ago and used to go to the cabinet maker and get heaps of sawdust he was glad to give as much as I could use away All I did was get a fire going in the PBS then just load it up with sawdust and I could get it glowing white hot if I wanted to very easily but mostly kept it at a red hot. I didn't think of using oil at the time and it didn't really need it But I could see that idea of oil and Sawdust being used in one of those paper brick maker things you wouldn't have the drying time of using water and newspapers before you could use them either I still have one of those machines in my shed I will have to find it. We have just come out of winter this way (Western Australia) but during winter my mate gave me a Kent slow combustion stove,flue and all for free They brought it about 20 years ago just before there first child was born, Chrysanthia didn't like the idea of a wood burning stove and a child being near each other so after spending 2000 $ + install costs and about 1 month of use it ended up going into his father's garage for storage for 20 years And then given to me a couple of months back! Basically brand new I can't wait to find someone pro to install it for me before next winter,in my bedroom (20ft x 15 feet) I will probably only need kindling fires to heat the room! Am very seriously adding your oil drip feed system to it for alternative / hybrid fuel use Have you considered making a oil rocket stove like this bloke from Little Aussie Rockets does? He has been experimenting with vortex flames and incorporating a water jacket to heat water as well as cooking on it anyway Gerry glad to see you back again Tony from Western Australia

Brown paper sandwich bags work well for holding the oil-soaked sawdust. The bag material will absorb some of the oil, but won't break down. Cut the bottom out of an empty can that will fit inside the bag. Use the can as a scoop/funnel to easily fill the bag, leaving room at the top to double fold the bag for storage/burning. 100 bags for $4 at Fred Meyer's. Many restaurants almost beg you to come get their used fryer oil.

I'm gonna give it a try. Also I was a chimney sweep for a number of years and learned that if you burn a fire too low, slow and cold, you will develop serious stage 4 creosote buildup in your chimney, liner or flue in no time. That's even if you're burning seasoned cord wood only. Always burn a hot fire producing a light, fine Grey ash. That goes for even the best modern company made stoves with smooth wall stainless steel liners.🔥🔥

Tip: Toilet paper support roll. One way or another every house has them as left over, or in other words garbage. Stuff them with oily sawdust, compress with a piece of wood. Had more sawdust as needed, compress. That's it, simple, easy, dirty cheap, as in FREE! The size makes them quite handy and practical to use in a wood stove. BTW it's totally worth to use a metal pipe as an outer sleeve. To support them while filling up. Makes the entire operation way easier. ;-) Curiously, I do have an hydraulic press near the area where I fill up the rolls. I can assure it's neither needed or worth the effort to try and compress them to a high degree. Waste to much time it's a diminishing return! So compress with a piece of wood by hand. That's good enough and fast. Cheers all

Have you ever tried making sawdust/shredded paper bricks? you pretty much just add the two together till they make a slurry then compress as much water out of it as you can, and let them dry. They burn for a good long time almost like a piece of wood, which is guess they kinda are since paper is just wood pulp and glue, and sawdust compression would just make a log essentially.
@ratgreen 3 жыл бұрын
Hi mate, could you try something for me? You can force the oil to polymerize using a siccative ? Its commonly used to revamp old oil based paints that have gone out of date and wont dry, its the drying agent for oil based paints. It basically forces the oil to oxidize and polymerize and thus harden. So in theory you could make solid chunks of oil and sawdust and a splash of siccative = DIY waste oil and sawdust logs. My idea would be to mix the oil and siccative, then add the sawdust, and then compress them in a tube, wait for them to dry, then push them out the metal tube to get your logs. I've done a bit of research this evening, some siccatives are toxic. From a quick google I think terebene or Kreidezeit Siccative is ~OK~ to burn and relatively cheap. There is no info out there on the effect they have on veggie oil so it would be trail and error to get the right amount to use for correct drying.
@JohannHochtl Жыл бұрын
Not every oil polymerizes even at the presence of a siccative. Sunflower seed oil is ok and very good is of course linseed oil. The last isn't used for cooking.

Hi Mark. I have some waste oil videos on making a burner but I will be converting this one to run on waste oil very shortly. Just had a look at a Franklin stove. They look really well built but as it's an open stove I'm not sure of your best path. Thanks for commencing Great to hear from Missouri Cheers Gerry👍

Good replies, however, when “ we “ add additional air, the combustion is more complete, if you check the vids , it’s shown that 1. The stove burns ver very hot and 2. There is no smoke. I personally am a veteran mechanic and know that more air is better, ( super charger ) and I use an additional blower to add more air, so little to no smoke and my chimney pipe is still clean after 2 years of burning motor oil.

Allright Gerry ya got me into some hot water with the wife. I made this formula up and put into some old plastic bags that came from the market. And I must say that they kept the shop nice and warm. But that isn't all that got warm. My wife was a bit hotter than the barrel stove. She found out that I used the kitchen mixer to make them. I almost got hurt really bad. I ended up having to go to town and buy her a new mixer. But this isn't the first time she go hot over me using the food mixer. I also had mixed some water base paint that was white. I thought I had cleaned the beaters real good but she spotted a tiny speck on the beaters and said nothing. So that night we had a nice meal of fried chicken, corn on the cob, fresh picked peas, and mashed potatoes. BUT she mashed them with the mixer I had used and didn't wash it. Ya know I wondered why she didn't want any potatoes. LOL This time I bought her a new one and put the old mixer in my shop. Man let me tell you that women have a mean streak in them. But the plastic bags work very well and they like the paper burn completely up. Gerry have a great day sent from Florida...

Hey Gerry! Interesting idea but I'm curious what the motivation to burn the oil is vs. collecting and recycling? For the effort and time it takes to burn the oil, you could easily burn firewood or wood scraps from the shop. It's fairly common in our area to have massive local dump bins, where at the same time you can recycle your containers. Don't get my wrong I love burning stuff! Appreciate your time - Cheers!

Hi Gerry, I’m from SW Minnesota USA. ! My great great grandfather came to the USA back in 1828 with his dad & brothers when he was 14 years old from County Cavan, Ireland . They settled in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area ! Later when my great great grandfather got older he came to Minnesota & eventually settled in Renville Co. Minnesota in 1866 . He homesteaded near the Minnesota River & broke ground with oxen to farm 80 acres . This was 3 1/2 years after the Dakota Sioux war with the settlers & the US government . The land he homesteaded is still in our family . My brothers & I own the land now . We inherited the land from my mom after her death . My great great grandfathers name was James Gaffney.

Hi Dennis. Great history of your family. Back around then 1840's things were bad here in Ireland. They call it the famine but Ireland is a very fertile country and although the potato crop failed due to blight everything else still grew. This is an Island so the fish still swam and yet people starved to death. More like genocide. I am from Dublin originally but am living in Co. Wexford in the South East. They call it the sunny south east but I think they were having a laugh 😀 Cavan is a couple of hours drive north from here and is known for its many lakes. Great comment Dennis Cheers Gerry
