yoeddynz Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 yeah thats quite a sweet looking burner. If you fit a compliant burner and once its all settled down and council man is happy can you make your own cool burner and fit it? You are lucky you can fit a normal burner anyway. My boss in nelson built his house and had no option but to fit a pellet burner. Its gay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KIRK Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 its cool cos u can cook eggs on it and pan cakes and bacon so u don't need a stove as well. edit: maybe not these ones but u get it. pot belly stove fire machine u don't need fuck All of a wood burner for that little house haha. just a little electric heater would do the job 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Little crackers... not that flash for the money. You could build something better and that would look sweet. Steam punk style burners are what I want to build in future. Burners are so fun to make. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIRK Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 yeh i saw this tv show where that guy made the little cottage and he made a burner out of an old safe. it was lush and he cooked on it. do that. my cousin recently pulled an old 1930s spec masport out of his house i could see if he still have it. homo replaced it with gas and ripped out the awesome pink tiled art deco fireplace. man i was like WAT is wrong with u that was awesome 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, why would you spend the $ to get a new one installed, pull it out, take a hit because it's not new anymore, and then spend more money building a different one... I recall reading about a range called "Tiny" specifically designed for small spaces. Might be suitable for your needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIRK Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 because pot bellies/home made is cooler, that why. too legit to quit. containers aren't inflammable anyway how many magazines in this container house anyway? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingbrick Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 totally get one made out of plate and have folds put in the side to emulate the lines of your container! Then paint in high temp red exhaust paint 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KKtrips Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Jeeze - that is a cool looking beastie - and you know it will warm an insulated container in about 17 minutes from turning the key. Probably find that 2 or 3 well placed 200W bulbs would also heat a container in the time it takes you to make a noodlerama feast... I especially like the acorn nut detail and those sidepanels are just asking for bolt on Manu-isations. Also if you want some actual opinions about new vs old - if you can buy a compliant brand new one and have it installed for a mere $1000 more than a second hand headache then spend the extra G. However that is easy to say when it's not my money I'm theoretically spending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIRK Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 just the sun will do it. when we unload container and its warm and sometimes have to climb up to near the roof it is so hot that it burns you and u sweat like a rapist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelies Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 insulation and roof over, check the plans. yep KK thats right it's a no-brainer on the new fireplace, not worth the fuck around. also, as i'm sure we all agree - it totally has to have a wood burner. cant go for a walk in the bush and find free electricity to run the heat pump or cook with. yeah keen for the little flick thing, but it's unapproved etc. i'm pretty sure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIRK Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 there must be a retro styled pot belly look alike type modern stove u could instal but I bet it will cost 5,000,000 euros edit: and this thread is like 1 million pages long so sorry if im repeter-ing things which have already been said lol I cbf reading the whole thing but I am interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingbrick Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Hey that little one with bolt on side guards but replace them with container looking pieces with folds. be SO sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickity Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Dunno if this is of interest to you. Probs too modern looking. But supposedly ideal for mini spaces http://www.metrofires.co.nz/wood-fires/tiny-series/tiny-ped Can get a leg version too. ...apparently Stihl shops sell them...
