Cob: Wood stove in cob wall?

[Taylor Publishing-DirtCheapBuilder]

Chuck, AMANDA,  i THINK THE CREOSOTE IS BUILT UP BY BURNING OF HIGH 
RESIN SOFT WOODS...SO POSSIBLY BEING MORE SELECTIVE, AND CLEANING MORE 
OFTEN ( CHIMNEY SWEEP OPPORTUNITY) MIGHT BE THE SOLUTION.
opps  caps...  After all a masonry stove is all clay-stone to absorb the 
heat..so why can't a metal heater had cob up against it to absorb heat 
too ( keeping all vents open etc) prolly voids any warrant;  but having 
a heater in the center of the circle heating all  directions is what Rob 
Roy's cordwood house has. and many  masonry-combo bread oven stoves are 
in the center between the kitchen and the LR with bake oven on one side 
and heat to LR on the other.

I'd look at all the info at:  http://www.mha-net.org/  The Masonry 
Heater Association of North America   Extensive online library on 
masonry heating and   sustainable construction, great articles   and 
contact stove builder  Norbert Snef ( at that site)
