My Actifit Report Card: January 25 2024

Making a used-oil stove and doing house chores

Dear friends,

Today, in the morning, I did house chores mostly and viewed tutorials on food processing. I was trying to learn as much as I could. And there will be children meditation session at meditation centre next month and to be able to participate in it, I was learning materials provided to I me.

In the afternoon, I started building used-oil stove - I started with drilling air holes at the end joint of incoming pipe.

I intend to use 4"x 4" steel hollow pipe for the stove - I closed one end by welding it.

Tomorrow, I will drill holes for inlet air from the blower and for oil inlet pipe.

I will use a DC motor and print the blower with my 3D printer. I have printed before but it is broken now as can be seen below.

I was inspired by some YouTube videos on building a used-oil stove. I already knew I could build one but first, I thought the stove could produce much smoke and make pots and pans dark. However, I found in YouTube videos that they could be built so that it produced blue flames and no smoke at all. Below is the diagram of the stove I intend to build. It is a simple one I think. But will I be able to get blue flames? Let's see what I can come up with.

Those are some of the activities for today.
