Hi I am interested in creating a small (safe) solid fuel heater for a boat.
I am thinking of creating a rocket stove using a 90degree exhaust
elbow as the combustion chamber
this

Is it at all plausible to make the above into a rocket stove? Is it
worth the £15 to find out?
Would a 135 degree be worth a try?

angle?
The top part of the 90/135 degree elbow would fit into a 2 metre
chimney of a slightly larger diameter chimney
2x1 metre chimney

The chimney would go through the cabin roof using one of these

It would need constant feeding I realise, but that also means there is
not much fuel to run out of control and overheat..
Worth a try?
Thanks
Sam
