Used Wood Burning Stoves

Woodburning Stove installed in my 1983 Ford Van Video

I installed this woodburning stove yesterday in my 1983 Ford Diesel Van. Ordinarilly the stove doesn't puff smoke inside the van this much, but I added some wet pine needles to have some smoke coming out the chimney just before filming. The stove is great for camping, hunting and fishing trips. I also spend a lot of time in and around the van at swap meets, flea markets, and festivals. I can open the side doors of the van, sit in the doorway and be toasty warm on the coldest of days. Having a woodstove going in the van requires constant vigilance and extreme caution. Definitely not something for everyone. The stove is not in use while driving. Ventilation is critical with an open fire going in such a small space. There's no room for error. My van only has one seat in front for the driver. The stove is centered where the passenger seat used to be, and there's plenty of clearance all around it. The stove weighs about 60 pounds and is all cast iron. It heats very well with just a very small amount of wood. The top surface is good for cooking or keeping a coffee pot hot too.
