Made another barrel evaporator. It's in the R&D stage right now but fired it up today to check draw and efficiency. Not perfect but does not really have to be, a little fine tuning and putting it in it's final home will help button up most of the minor issues left to deal with. Made from an under counter hot water heater inner shell,large bolt for the handle, door hinge, two fireplace wood holders, vent pipe and it's all nut's and bolts holding it together, for now as it passed the first test and I will make things a little more permanent.

The boiling pan is almost twice my age over 50 years old, hand made by a local and passed down over time.
