DIY concrete oven: faster, easier and cheaper than a stove
Hello everyone! On the eve of the heating season, many are thinking about economical ways to sink a residential building and outbuildings such as a garage and a chicken coop. I found on the Internet a curious concrete stove that casts quickly, heats up instantly and gives a lot of heat.

I hope you watched the video to the end and are ready to discuss the design of the oven!
So, I'll start with what I love about this oven:
- it is easy and quick to do it yourself, especially if you add a hardening accelerator to concrete - it is suitable as an emergency option;
- with all materials manufacturing cost - 200 rubles, at most;
- concrete of this thickness - excellent heat accumulator, which means the stove will be able to heat the garage for 3-4 hours without throwing firewood;
Now let's talk about the disadvantages:
- not the most beautiful appearance - however, as they say, felt-tip pens are different in taste and color, - it will suit someone for a garage!
- heavy weight a concrete stove makes it less mobile - it is difficult to drag it from place to place if necessary;
Third minus - quite controversial (let who knows, will correct me in the comments): at high temperatures, concrete can crack, or even "shoot" at the stoker. Personally, I have never encountered such a thing, but somewhere along the edge of my ear I heard that concrete can "shoot straight" when heated.
What can you say about this oven?
I will gladly discuss the oven in the comments, answer criticism, and clarify the details.
