My favorite is the automotive radiator for radiant heat.

And I always thought it would be fun to hook up a domestic cast iron
radiator in an old car- winter beater.

I'd laugh at them EXCEPT many years ago I put a new outlet in an old
bathroom....when my wife plugged in the vaccuum, the switch on the
Vaccuum turned the bathroom light on and off....I recovered and have
done a lot of (good and safe) electrical work since then.

Light switch in the shower, now that's scary!

Knew some country folks who heated the house with a woodstove in the
shed. Ran a water line under the ground, and used a radiator and fan
in the kitchen. I can't remember what they used for a circulator, but
he said he had a loop of copper in the firebox of the woodstove. Musta
worked.

I guess out in the shed he could burn crankcase oil and she didn't
mind as much.

That one is actually not that bad an idea. I know a guy who did this
with an array of solar collectors in his garage. If you put a garden
variety $20 "box" fan behind this it will pump out plenty of BTUs. It
kept us warm working on cars or harleys if it was a sunny day, even in
winter.
