DIY Stove Jack For Otter Hub Portable Ice House
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- Follow along as I make a stove jack for my Otter Vortex Lodge hub house so I can use my tent wood stove for ice fishing and/or cold weather camping. This window/stove jack will fit in both the side window and the "skylight" window and will still allow me to see out with it in place.
Total cost for this project, about $14.
Manly I am yes. I do wish I had sewing skills. Good detailed job! I would pay you your proper worth of time to make another for myself. I could send you the plastic window to start.
Thank you for this tutorial. I was thinking about getting this tent and noticed the lack of a vent for a stove and thank God I found you.
I'm glad the video was helpful! I've never seen a hub with a stove jack built-in but this project is fairly simple so you can make your own. Thanks for watching & good luck with your project! :)
@@EndlessDIY thank you! Have you felt the need to set up extra protection in between the tent walls and the stove? I have seen a coupe other videos of people putting fiber glass screens probably because they are scared the heat will damage the tent.
@@moiram3038 I do take along a fiberglass welding blanket that can be hung behind the stove. I've used the stove with and without the blanket but I think using it is a good idea, just for extra safety.
Awesome Rush!!! The only thing that could go wrong is the stove/pipe heat radiating?! You Rock!!!
Thanks, Bee Dub! I have a welding blanket I plan on running down the wall & under the stove, so hopefully that'll keep everything safe.
I used a welding blanket with height temp silicone and the Velcro. Works great
Excellent!
How did you cut the welding blanket to fit?
Awesome work! Thanks for sharing. I found someone yesterday who I trying to do the same. Either Otter adds an accessory for this stuff or you make us a few and sell them!
Thanks! The trouble I've had is that I can't consistently find the copper mats so it's hard to offer the stove jacks.
@@EndlessDIYThanks for the reply. Keep doing what you doing! Happy and Healthy New Year!
@@johnnyharbieh Same to you! :)
I used the same product last year...works very well and no burns
Great feedback! Thanks!
Yes I would buy one too. I could send you the window. To my otter
Love the Ultra at the work station, good beer. P.S. Awesome job, love the vid.
Thanks!
Gotta have that liquid inspiration! lol!
Thanks 👍🇬🇧
Nice video. Thanks for the sewing machine advice! 😀
No problem! Thanks for watching! :)
@@EndlessDIY I did end up getting a 70's era kenmore. I'm not quite ready to tread into industrial strength territory yet. I'll report back wether it gets through the adhesive velcro or not.
@@jojoutdoors2266 Excellent! It's funny how with some things older is better than newer. The heavy body will really help, too. Keep me posted! 👍🏻
Good Job , Thanks for sharing..👍👍
Thanks so much for watching! :)
I don't know why American tent manufacturers don't make these things as options. In Russia, it can be purchased together with a tent.
As far as I know, the only tents here that offer them are actual winter "wall" tents. I'm not sure if it's related to fire retardant or what.
@@EndlessDIY you did great, you can open a business😀
Great Video! Thanks!!
Thank you! :)
Looks like you're living a great life.
This came up in my feed after looking up how Denver is using ice fishing tents for their homlees population. Sad but true 😢
I have to agree. I have built a life that I enjoy living, for sure.
These ice fishing tents are $400-$800. I'm surprised the Gov't (taxpayers) provide them; where I'm from (L.A.) most homeless people have no shelter and the ones who do have $20-$30 nylon tents. I have seen restaurants buy these to use for outdoor dining, though.
@@EndlessDIY they say that the government spends up to 12,000 per homlees person a year. So this is way cheaper
My son builds outdoor tents in Manhattan for the restaurants. Decorates them with his hand made tables and chairs and plants every where. Skid row cord u a few.
Excellent!
Thanks!
Do you sell these?..I'm sure there in demand.
I probably would if someone contacted me about it. I used copper grill mats for mine which work fine but it’d probably be a good idea to use actual stove jack material
Thanks for the video. Will be looking forward to seeing how it works in the field, er on the ice! What will you be using for a stove?
I'll be using the stove I rebuilt in this video: ua-cam.com/video/iaPguBAKXUc/v-deo.html . I've never camped with a wood stove before so I'm really curious how well it'll work, too! My brother lives on a nearby lake so I'll be taking the whole works out there soon. Heck, if it goes sideways, I can always go in his house & crash on the sofa for the night. Lol!
I was waiting for some crazy dance at the end.
@@BoogyWoogyCreep Lol! The inspiration didn't hit me in this one. 🤣
Hey Rush. What an awesome job! Would you be interested in selling one of these? I have an otter vortex resort and I'm looking to run a wood stove in it.
Thanks! Does the Resort have the same sized windows?
Out Fricking Standing!
Thanks! :)
can you make one of those stove jack for me? i am willing to pay!
I want to know why you would ever need two bricks sewn together??? Lol
You should sell those, $39.95
How much to make me one?
