as i said, just an idea. This is all test theory, i haven't acutally done any fabbing yet. If i do, i' won't make a post of the results, as it seems everyone is shooting it down
I guess people are giving their comments based on their knowledge and experience.......and are hoping to help you avoid spending a lot of time and money on something that is bound to give you poor performance. If oil were the "proper" way to build and OWB......you would not be the first one to do it and the use of oil in a furnace would be common. Furnaces have been using water to transfer heat in buildings ever since the boiler was invented and if there was a better way it would have been used. Oil is not an efficient media for storing or transferring heat, and water is the most cost effective and efficient liquid for this purpose.
If you didn't post in this forum in order to gather up information and learn something.......I guess there really isn't any reason for us to comment.
Hope it works out well for you.
