Direct Energy and Thermal Mass Build

I give the aforementioned for background that justifies the following experiment

This setup failed badly. D.E.A. fails

Direct Energy Application (D.E.A.) Thermal Energy Conversion

Luckily the Direct Energy systemwas tested before the wall was completed.

In under an hour the rocks had become uncomfortably hot. Direct Energy thermal conversion

It was necessary to re-think the placement of the elements.

Rather than incorporating the elements into the wall, it was decided to try relocating them into the floor beside/beneath the inside wall.

Direct Energy Thermal Application

Since the garage/lab where I spend most of my time cannot be insulated or sealed from the outside elements, this 2024 winter will require an adequate alternate means of heating.

Ugly porch walls

By adding thermal mass around the existing firewood stove conversion, will at very least help to maintain moderate temperatures for longer durations (even after the fire goes out).

Porch walls

I am relatively proficient with the use of direct energy for a few things such as water heaters, lights, fans, lighted signs, cooking, and even some rudimentary element heating. However to continually heat an open-air garage throughout the winter will require that something either be invented or improved upon to meet the necessity.

This project is using all of the remaining materials on this property (down to pebbles and only a few large rocks).

Some Other Do it Yourself Projects

The government removed my website, now what?

My most recent form of mainstay and sustenance was accrued mostly by the free exposure my websites once enjoyed. Since then though about a half-dozen domains and domain names were removed by similar fashion before I began to learn tracking and tracing the predators that have silenced me in such a way.
So now that the free service that I offered to the community is no longer able to see that I'm even still open, heating without firewood will become my newest hurdle this winter. The free service I offered the community can be seen here, it allowed anyone to bring any trees, branches, leaves, dirt, rocks and much more to my property rather than pay for the "public" dump to take the biodegradable or non-perishables.
