Anybody ever use one of these?

good looking stove RRR ! should work good for cooking. i got into these things last year and havent let go yet. the "rocket mass heater" idea keeps pecking at my thoughts. i like the idea of heating with out burning all the time. and im real cheap too. lol i went as far as to build a core and have burnt it all summer playing with feeding and burn temps. mine is made from clay, perilite, sand, and straw/dry weed stalks and some bricks for burn chamber and feed tube. the idea of the rocket stove is to push temps high enough to burn all the hydrocarbons up and emit no smoke/particles. one thing you will like is a vertical feed tube. it will allow you to let it go, without feeding, for at least 45min. a lot longer with a bigger 8" system. i have found the rocket stove stuff facinating and am planning an outside heated bench by the fire pit. would love to build a rocket mass system in the garage but insurance reasons make me hesitant. seems no limits with these things! forges-making electricity-heating your water-cooking....... your rocket searches will lead you to all kinds of interesting stuff for sure.

Know exactly what you mean. I lay my head down on my pillow at night and have visions of what all is possible. Neighbor gave me a small propane tank and I have
visions about making a stove/water heater combo with it so I'll have hot water to wash cooking tools after the meal is consumed. Limited only by our imaginations.
