Kinda like a boiler burner drawer, cool enjoy the video, I was a boiler maker when I was a young man 40 years ago, all thar brought back some memories, thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for showing how you did this. I have a Solo Plus 30. Built in 1995, so it's almost 30 years old. "The parts are rather pricey" is an understatement.
Great job. I will be changing my refractory insert stone and the combustion tunnel on my solo plus 30 this summer also. I will make my insert stone and tunnel. Years ago I worked for a refractory co.
One thing about refractory is it's very brittle. I always set my wood in on the fire, try not to through the wood in. The refractory will brake. Always try and wear a mask when working with refractory, its got very bad stuff in it.
Keep making video's
I know a vacuum filter that’s gonna need a cleaning too!! She’ll burn a lot better now!
The difference is yuge!
I made a water trap for my shop vac when cleaning the stove / chimney
bought a roll of sump pump hose, it was the cheapest vacuum sized hose I could find, pool hose is good too
hole saw a couple openings in the lid of a 5 gal bucket, make sure the hose is a tight fit
run the pump hose to the bottom of the bucket, set the shop vac hose just below the lid
fill the bucket 1/2 or 2/3 with water, the ash and soot has to bubble through the water where almost all is caught
empty often, dont overfill
good for sheet rock dust too
Do you have a video on cleaning the fan and fan area for the Tarm?
Hi Tony, great job replacing you tunnel and insert stone. Now that summer is here I have removed my tunnel and insert stone. I am in the process of building my own refractory parts. My insert stone looks just like your old one. Can you tell me how wide the gap ( place the fire burns down through the insert stone ) is? Looking at your new one maybe 1 1/4", not sure. Can you help please.
Looks like you have a nice farm.
Thank Mark
well done! need to do the same repair to mine! How bad did it set you back on parts i’m way north and will have to pay shipping too.
I think the total was $740 with the two gaskets. Not sure what shipping will be. The job really wasn't hard. They didn't fit as tight as I thought they would, but the gaps will fill in with ash and soot. Thanks for watching!
🤣🤣🤣 Donald double!!
