Ok guys, not looking to get bashed. Just finished my homemade OWB and installed it. Did homemade direct burial line and everything. over 180' I have 3 degrees lost on the supply. Please check out the pictures and let me know your thoughts. There is still time to make changes. The concept is simple. 3' firebox and ' water jacket. Firebox has big combustion blower on the back with a damper and there is an ash tray also which seems to be working out great. Air is blown up through a custom made grate into the wood and out the exhaust. Any and all advice or tips and things that need changed would be great to hear. just a guy with some steel that can weld with an imagination. Thanks!

Looks good, I am impressed with anyone that can put one together. Is your firebox square or round?

That's a great looking design! I like the small footprint it appears to make. Care to share the dimensions? What size house are you heating with it?
Mine is a homemade job, but it is two oil tanks all done up like yours there sort of. I think the water take is far to large and the firebox as well. It is about 5 years old and at that time I thought the bigger the tank/firebox the better... I now realize that is not the case.
