I know the sun is shining but I'm planning ahead. Does anyone have any sensible or wacky ideas for a static awning/gazebo to house a wood burner? It would have to be pretty substantial with the heat inside and the weather outside.

We once hired a teepee on a site and that had a wood burner inside with a chimney that went out the top you could get a smaller version.

Double insulated flue so it keeps heat away from the fabric?
Make sure it is well flued or a proper Teepee which is designed to create a draw. Woodsmoke is a devil for an unmentionable gas. It's a 100x worse than a propane flame for that gas.
Eg
Propane flame 50 ppm Woodsmoke flue 5000 ppm

the tent woodburners use a single wall flue and it goes through a high temperature silicon rubber and aluminium flange, they should only be fitted to tents made of heavy duty fireproofed cotton, also the flue should be fitted with a spark guard cowl to stop any glowing embers blowing out. a friend had a bell tent fitted with one of the portable woodburnerss and it was very effective in turning his tent into a sauna.

Thanks for advice...the wood burner and flue are in hand and now have an idea for the housing of it... I can leave it up for extended periods but will need to move it periodically so simplicity stability and safety are the keys !
