- I've seen videos of electric dryers made into shop heaters but they always seem to look like a small dryer. In this build I'm going to make a shop heater out of a dryer but try to make it look like a heater. If you have any questions about the build please ask in the comment section of this video. Thanks for watching. :)

I always enjoy watching your videos, packed with great information.
Thank you. Hope all is going well down in your area. Take care. :)
What we saw here is brains, ingenuity, and tools come together for a really neat and useful item. Why the heck doesn't he have couple 100k subs?
These things take time. I cant afford to advertise my channel so word of mouth and shared videos is how people learn about my channel. I'm not worried, the inspiration I put on UA-cam will always be here no matter how many subs I have. Thanks for watching. :)
Because it's not usless and meaningless garbage entertainment. UA-cam and brainwashed people don't like learning useful skills. Maybe if he gives away a million dryer heaters to people at Walmart he'd have 10 million subs lol.
@@KoalityofLifeyou think you could rewire a gas dryer the same way??
@@alexwcobb You can't use a gas dryer in this way because the heat from the gas dryer needs to be exhausted outside. The heat contains carbon monoxide from the burning of the gas. Hope this helps. :)
@@KoalityofLifesure you can it's not going to be any different than any other non-vented propane heater
How bout this: Build a filter box to stick on the end of the ducting that lets the hot air blow into the garage after it's been filtered WHILE DRYING YOUR LAUNDRY? 😮TA-DA!
I have seen videos using electric dryers to heat their garage or house, where ever their dryer happens to be. All you need is (like you said) a box to filter out that last bit of lint that makes it past the lint trap and then the hot air from the dryer can be used to heat. Thanks for watching. :)
What do you make me one? I would definitely buy it from you.
I would make a bunch of them if I could find free or cheap electric dryers around but I live out in the sticks and there's not a lot around. Thanks for watching. :)
Tell me how much electricity is that going to use
It may not be the most efficient way to heat but it's not as expensive as you might think. Like running a dryer without the motor being bogged down by a heavy load of wet clothes. Thanks for watching. :)
Put in a ceiling fan to circulate the air
The ceiling fan is coming some day. all in good time. Thanks for watching. :)
don't forget your eye protection
Noted. Thanks for watching. :)
Congrats bro, help me a lot!
Thank you. Glad to hear. Thanks for watching. :)
Can i get a wiring diagram
I wish I could put up a universal diagram but I'm sure dryers are all a little different. If you follow the flow of power you should be able to get it going. Thanks for watching. :)
I notice it looks like a newer dryer. I guess they just don't build dryers to last long anymore.
I have no idea how old the dryer was. I got it for free off market place just for this project, but I can agree with you on the fact that they don't build stuff to last anymore. Thanks for watching. :)
aww man i was sure you were going to get a couple $ in coins :) as for the heating element and its on cycle being longer, maybe a burn out maybe not something to consider. and finally mad props on that thin sheet metal welding :)
I was kinda disappointed about the lack of loose change in the dryer, maybe more of that falls out in the washer. Thanks for watching.
Nice, I am building one too and just like you, I want to bypass all of the nonsense too. Thanks for the video. I am glad that I lucked up on your channel.
I was overthinking it at the start but after getting into it and figuring out what ran the motor and electric heating coil it came together really fast and easy. Thanks for watching. :)
I have an electric dryer that has been sitting for about 10 years. I am going to try this. Thank you!
You're welcome, thanks for watching. :)
Dang. Now I need to find an old dryer somewhere to make a shop heater. But mine needs to be an old 110 dryer
I don't know if there is a 110 electric dryer. Maybe. Let me know if you find one. :)
That was a fun video, Ty. Hope things are going well for you!
Thanks, things are good over here, hope all is well with you too. :)
Cool time killer, but I'd buy a heater.
There's a lot of great heaters out there that are fairly inexpensive. This is something I have wanted to do for a while. Thanks for watching. :)
I enjoyed this very much. Thanks!
You're very welcome. Thank you for watching. :)
The things you come up with nice job though there's nights I can get asleep with all the thoughts rolling around in my head 😆 I know your the same I'm. Building another cannon thinking 3 barrel one 🤔
Three barrel cannon? Thats going to be crazy. I still have the other cylinder laying out by that tree. I need to make a cannon out of it, someday, when I'm not busy with other builds. lol :)
@KoalityofLife be like a over and under bottom one is bowling ball second one pool ball top one gulf ball
