Restoring a 140 Year Old Wood Stove For My Tinyhouse. Shed To Tinyhouse update #9

- This is the documentation of my work to transform this abandoned shed, forest and empty field into an off grid home and organic farm.
Today I'm taking this 140 year old stove and cleaning it up and giving it a second life. I made a few mistakes which made this video take a while but its finally in and I have heat! - Розваги
Stumbled on your tiktok tonight and ran over here to subscribe and say, I’m really impressed with what you are doing! Wish you all the best in this adventure! Cheers
They make stuff called stove "polish" or stove black - it's a thin paste you get in a small jar and wipe it on with a rag - it'll dry and some will burn off - with all the intricate decoration on this stove paint (like what you've done) is probably a good first step anyhow but to keep the look of your stove "up" the stove polish works great - I found that a jar would last me about 5 years with our medium size stove that we used to burn almost non-stop (between 2-4 full cord a year)
Hey man - just an FYI for the future, when you’re cleaning up old metal (line when you were using the wire wheel) I’d recommend using a filtered mask so that you’re not inhaling the tiny particles you’re throwing into the air
Great job!!
Next time instead of paint use a oil well the stove is hot. Its probably cast iron and when cast iron is coated with oil wrll hot it turns black and also helps prevent rusting. Think of it like a cast iron pan
Great job! I saw your videos on TikTok too. Switched to UA-cam to see more. Love watching your videos! 😊
Im definitely not an expert, however i would suggest repainting the doors and windows. And adding some kind of insulation on the edges of the glass, and if you have any extra money you could double glaze the glass but i have heard its quite expensive.
It’s awesome you have done this yourself. Keep it up! 👍
Oddly satisfying {i dunno in usa but in italy we have attachment rings between the pipe and the stove}
The pipes were so frustrating to watch omg. Glad you finally got it! (The blood sacrifice was necessary)
Window trim looks awesome
Get a carbon monoxide sensor incase the fire in the furnace eats all the oxygen
Get some offset snips if you can, for metal work they'll really be worth it you can get a two pack one is for a cut that turns left and the other for a cut that turns right. Looked like you're using straight snips there which are hard to use for this. Found your content on Instagram and followed to yt, love what you're doing man!
The wood crunch was so satisfying - did you seal around the opening on the roof so water doesn’t get in?
Yep it's all sealed
What is up? It’s been a bit, any updates?
@justinwarren9743 my tiktok is way more upto date
@janklabs awwww man, don't have tiktok....too much social media 😢
where you at man? i miss the videos
I've been super busy with the house. But I'm uploading again now
@@janklabs on UA-cam too? I am really enjoying the longer versions of your videos😄
@@romainpicon3828 yea I got a big backlog of footage I gotta edit. But it's coming!
@@janklabs cool!
I'm no expert but shouldn't the tighter side of the chimney pipe, which fits into the other side, be installed towards the top of the chimney system and the wider side installed towards the bottom so smoke does not leak out? Really been enjoying this build and what you have accomplished so far!
Its exactly the other way around , you should expect what you say, but vaccum in the pipe cuz of the heat will suck everything up , the pipe is connected in away condence and water endup in your stove and dont leak out of your pipe
@@atlascompanyv.o.c7367 All right, I didn't know that. Thank you for clarifying it.
@@Unlovable i was also first time when i did it wrong flabbergasted, when i got corrected from a pro 🤣
I’d tourniquet a piece of rope etc round those stove pipes if I was building them
Do u plan on farming? (Stardew I’m guess u named the project after the game)
Yes I'm starting the garden right now actually! More vids coming soon
U going to make a greenhouse on the side of the shead like instead of glass the cheaper option is pixie glass idk how to spell the plastic part of the name lol
@@Thebear-bt3cw there are plans for separate greenhouse buildings eventually
