Here is a link to my homebuilt oil burning stove. It isn't pretty but it puts out close to 200,000 btu and I only have about $30 invested in it.

How do you regulate the oil dripping on the burner pad. Is that what the valve is for and if so how fast should the drip be.....
Has anybody made one of the link posted earlier from Mother Earth? If so could you post some pics of it.
Thanks in advance.....

I make *no* claims about safety and efficiency of this unit. I simply post it as information that fits in with this thread.

Pretty good article but it is undoubtedly vague with regards to the fuel supply line, locations, control, etc. Obviously the author is assuming that the builder is aware of what has to be done. I see the "wrapped" part of the fuel line in the diagram but nothing else. They mention that it goes to the center of the burning chamber but it is difficult to visualize where this is or how the line is routed. Is it simply a drip system with a valve to control flow? This part is confusing (and missing) but the idea is pretty good.

The articule says to set it so that 3/4 to 1 quart drips into the stove per hour.I would think this would be trial and error until you figured it out and then could just set it and let it burn.

Any idea of the routing of the fuel line once it leaves the coiled area on the stack? Does it just go down into the burning chamber from the top and where does it enter? And in the diagram, it appears as if the chimney stack continues down behind the heater itself (below where the stove chimney ties into it). This part has been left out for some strange reason in the article.

First I want to say that I thought this was a nice looking setup and plan on building one in the next year or two.
It appears to me that the oil is to drip down the 4 inch pipe right into the burner arrangment.
I thought that the 7 inch pipe was just the exhaust stack and the coil of copper goes around it and is insulated to be a preheater for the oil,the stack that the copper wire is in does not exhaust there.This would keep the fire out of the stack that supplies oil to the stove.
I may have interpreted this wrong and would like to hear what you think on this.
I have burn alot of used oil in a wood stove dripping on the fire and the problem I had with this was it burning up into the supply line and plugging up with carbon.

from what i can tell, the oil drips at the top of the heater and is "sucked" to the burner,the preheater tube is also the air intake. note that it clearly says Not to Open the Door While it is Burning. this would allow fire to go back up the preheater and into the heated area, as the 8" pipe is not sealed to the flue at ether end.the fire burns outside the burner/preheater so no flame ever gets near the drip tube. thanks to redtractorman sharing his found wealth of knowlage. i have searched many hour and not found anything the usefull in the past.
