Have you looked at the cubic mini? I have one the larger one and it works good. You have to remember that small fire boxes have short burn times.

For a cheap stove you can always check craigslist. Otherwise, these tiny stoves sure do come with a big price tag.

They sure are nice to look at but my wallet insisted I get something more practical.

There was a thread going not long ago about a do-it-yourself wood stove. Can't find it now, though.

Go look at the tiny tot wood stove. tinywoodstove.com Heating our buses is an area of concern due fire, oxygen depletion and carbon monoxide issues. Not the place to be penny wise and pound foolish. We all get to take a dirt nap sooner or later but, I want it to be later.

I have purchased two wood stoves off craigslist under boat parts.These are made by Dickinson and are usually wood or diesel. Made to mount on the wall and use 3inch pellet stove piping. Designed primarily for boats but fit fine on our bus. About the size of an average shoebox.
