Haven't got any oil, have got a large quantity of scrap wood.

However I'd really like to avoid any sort of flame in here, on account
of the fire risk. That's one reason I'm thinking solar.

If you have scrap wood, get a wood burning stove and a double skinned
chimbley.

no chance of any sparks leaping out except when you load.

REALLY efficient. spit out a ****load of heat.

If you have access to about 3-4 cu ft of scrap wood a day.


What kind of woodworker wastes that much? :-)
