the tubes are the grates, the firebox is 44 inches long and about 31" dia., the water jacket is a 48" fuel drum, it will have an exhaust system like the PandM which we will fabricate next week when we have time

we belive that if we ciculate water in the grate which will be the return water, you will get a longer lasting grate and not having to replace so soon and use all the heat from the firebox you can

Did you build yours like the P and M as well? I'm planning on building one like that next fall. Looking forward to hearing how well it works out for you.
