[Cob] Wood Heat Question

[dirtcheapbuilder-Charmaine Taylor]

there are  off site wood and oil buring stoves called Taylor Stoves.. 
you have them sit next to the house, and they put heat, without risk of 
fire, etc-- straight to the home. My friend in Oregon has one and heats 
  his old mobile home that way while be  finishes his  castle home.

But there must be a cheaper, smaller solution for winter heating.  
possible cobbing around a cheap metal box stove with exposed cob in the 
shed and a built i seat would warm the space enough.

I  visited the two rocket stoves ianto has at CCC and the one in the 
big hoouse has a built in seat shelf which feels great.  ypi cpuld feed 
the stove from the outside, and eliminate fire /sparks, soot inside.

patrik, the  goat shed  on my property  is  6 deep x13 wide and is a 
tiny space...where did you put a sleep space? a loft?
