And in the cold days this is the best piece of equipment I have. The diesel burner puts out a great heat and is very economical to feed. You can see the flame through the draft hole on the base so it has not been going very long (probably less than 10 minutes) as I generally have that fully closed and it still priovides a very comfortable working environment. To light it I remove the draft hole cover and pour about a cup of meths in, then dip the lighting stick ( a length of 3/4x1/2 hardwood) into the meths bottle and light that then stick it in the draft hole where the fuel burns . These were actually designed for waste oil use and in the orchards to keep the frost off the fruit trees so their name is am frost pot for that reason but the oil really smokes so I burn straight diesel for clean heat.
You can see the hanging hooks and pulley system behind it in the rafters braces that I use to hang the animals after a hunt when I do a couple of my sheep.
The 4x4 fixed to the floor is where I will straighten the SS blades before they are heat treated. The SS is a very soft steel in its annealed state and while some rely on the quech plates to straighten at hardening time I like to do it first so I know there is less for the quench plate to do
