That's pretty cool Dave! A bit like a second chance for the smoke to escape before it comes out the front. I would like a cap to stop rain entering the oven though.

Thanks,

Thought you'd like that . You could configure the side by side if you like like that with flat tops as well I suppose.
Rain excluders can be pretty fancy ( and expensive) but you can use a clay pot plant base and just slip it over the top there usually heavy enough not to blow off. If fact that could be a temporary measure till you find what you want.
I'll have a look to see if I can find a pic of another I have seen. It's like the rain cap on a vertical truck exhurst excepts it has a chain to lift and hold it up looks pretty cool and i recon easy to make as well.

Still looking but here's another

HQ Holden hub cap

Re: Budget Build 36"

Hmm I have a few VW hubcaps around the place. Would work well for a single chimney. I am sure something could be made to do the trick though!

Thanks for all the ideas!

Re: Budget Build 36"

Awesome Dave! Thanks so much for putting in the effort

Can I use the 150mm stainless as the inner and the 200mm galv as an outer do you think? And then do the hubcap hinged top.

Thanks again,

Bevan

Re: Budget Build 36"

the area of the chimney size should be 15% of your oven entrance for best performance

150mm will be too small.

Re: Budget Build 36"

The 150mm is sitting bang on at 15% but I would rather over flue than anything. I guess its back to the double barreled single wall stainless

Cheers,

Re: Budget Build 36"

More flue is always better than less, I really doubt you can over flue an oven.

I think the term your looking for is "shot Gun It"

Re: Budget Build 36"

One flue behind the other will mean that you end up with a really deep entry and the oven will be a pain to work. Having the flues side by side will allow you a shallower entry.You could cast your entry so you have a manifold going to the two pipes.

Hey David,

I would definitely be going for the side by side option. I have attached a very highly photoshopped (mspaint) image that I have created

It may be easier no have a flat top rather than the angle though.

I think castable might be outside my skill level / budget sadly!

Thanks for chipping in!

That looks really cool.

Re: Budget Build 36"

Bevan,
Like David, I think that your double barrel side/by/side flu's do look great. But, I am wondering if your artwork is true to scale. What size brick are you representing in your pic? I am thinking that you will end up with a much wider chimney than what I see in your artwork. Not, that it is a problem, just something to consider.
