Making a New Type of Stove
A clay stove with ceramic fibre insulation
Up till now most wood-burning stoves in Africa are either imported or made by INGOs.
Now it will be possible for anyone to make a Rocket stove using clay and and ceramic fibre liner
Opposite is a sketch of a prototype stove showing the plywood mould held together with elastics into which clay is poured and also the final stove with its pot mountings.

The first CF stove in Africa
This stove shown here was assembled in Kenya in April 2020.
It consists of rocket type red brick stack but with the addition of a ceramic fibre chimney insert.
It is expected that most CF stoves will soon be made of clay or bricks since the CF blanket protects them from heat and prevents heat cracks!
