Oil Drip Heater Plans?

1662 Views 4 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  AgentMulder
So I did a little searching and could find anything on making a waste oil drip heater. I have seen several on youtube but no plans, tips, and improvments. Ive seen them done with brake rotors and propane tanks.

Does anyone have plans for one or built one in the past. the propane tank conversion looked nice. and the great thing is they are readily availible and i change my own oil so I have a ton of it laying around.

The old (and I mean old, like 1972) Mother Earth News had a step-by-step plans for one. All of the old back issues are available on line, complete with pictures and instructions. If I remember correctly, they even had plans for filtering your used moter oil for the heater and told you where to look for the oil.


Forget all that, how about this.

This one looks like a Mother Earth knockoff.
