Wood-Fired Dryer
I built a simple wood-fired grain dryer out of scrap metal that works well for me and has saved a lot of money. It consists of a double drum wood burning stove that I made with scrap barrels and a commercial stove-building kit. I built a housing around the stoves that holds in the hot air off the stoves. A flue carries smoke up out of the housing, while clean hot air is sucked out from the housing by the bin aeration fan through a large duct that exits one side. After three years of use, it still works good. (Alvin J. Deugau, Box 61, Outlook, Sask. S0L 2N0 Canada)
