US Stove BKAD500 Barrel Camp Stove Adapter Kit, Small, Black

This has worked beautifully in my 40'x40' shop. If you have never done any metal working, maybe it would be better to enlist the help of someone who has (Pizza and beer will normally do it). Im going into my second winter with this in the workshop and I still love it. If I had it to do over, I would have added bricks/sand/(Mass) to the upper barrel. That way it would hold more heat for longer, but it really isn't an issue. The only bad thing i can say is that no matter how well it is drafting, when you swing the front open, you will probably get some smoke in the shop.

The kit worked great for me.

This will work for US barrels but it's almost made for a wood / pickle barrel that is small at the top and bottom but fatter in the middle. The legs/feet on this do not lay flat. They are angled and have a compound curve to them to support 2 'oblong' barrels.It will work but I would shim up underneath the feet. We used high temp epoxy to give the feet more area to support the top barrel. Probably not necessary as the top barrel has no weight to speak of but we just felt better doing it.Great for the price but just thought people should know.

It arrived within 24 hours, amazing! It arrived broken unfortunately. Requested a replacement early in the, bam... it was at my door before the end of day! Fits well to a 55 gallon well.

Far from precisely engineered , no biggie it a garage barrel stove. But the nuts and bolts are pure xhina pot metal garbage go to the hardware stire and get better bolts.

Worked good. Doesn’t fit perfectly on the 55 gal drum. Added a couple washer and made it fit.

The legs are too tall for the barrel connection.Ok I made a design change to provide a cook top.Once the barrel exhaust is hooked up direct it's a very sturdy connectionA design change to legs is nessasary.A welder for a friend would be helpful

Not a US Stove! Cheep from china. For the legs - The true quality has some major flaws. The grain structure is very coarse for cast steel. Probably why it broke at the weakest point/junction. There is also major overcasting that was not taken care of that is sharp, bump against or rub against the wrong way it could cut you. They did not care about this in the manufacturing process as they painted over these flaws. And if these were made of formed steel they may be weldable to fix at home, with MIG or TIG. These are cast and the grain structure screams poor casting. Would not recommend. The duct flanges - seem fine, nothing to be really impressed about. If the legs Crack that easily I have doubts about the duct flanges. Too bad you can not buy the duct flanges by themselves. Back to the drawing board to build everything myself.
