Glumpy, That is like saying if you don't know how to cook you shouldn't eat. Some of us like to learn by others mistakes in order to save time, money while maintaining safety.
No, But it is like saying if you can't boil water you shouldn't try to cook. :0)
If people don't have a rudimentary knowledge of how to go about making something so simple then they certainly don't have any understanding in the potential problems and dangers in operating it and would put themselves and others in danger by taking a shortcut on the knowledge of constructing such a device.

Sweet burner, I have been browsing for design ideas and yours offers some fresh insight. Nice touch showing the totally smoke free stack. Would like to more about your set up like the nozzle size, psi, cfm on the blower, if using refractory cement in lower chamber. Nice! Thanks,
@phillipgaley , interesting comment, I am wondering how much heavy stuff settles to the bottom of your waste oil container. It makes sense to let it settle and burn off the top stuff mainly. Secondly you can use a simple centrifuge and clean the oil almost perfectly and recycle the sludge to haz waste.
@definca A centrifuge is what they use on all ships—continuously cycling the oil through, so that, in the sight glasses, it always looks clear and bright; but for the cost, that would, of course, be "just the ticket".
If you are ever around where a mechanic removes the engine pan, you will be able to see the layer of gray sediment, tightly packed, gradually pounded down, from vibration in years of engine service—much less in the engines of those who change their oil more often, and, vise versa.
@definca And, you can fill a glass jug with the dirty oil and see how long it takes to simply settle—without vibration and heat. I have sampled settled oil, pouring it out of a five-gallon can, and then running into bottom sludge; I'm going to offer a "guesstimate" and say, it would take at least five years.
In removing pans from older engines, I have scraped out as much as, say, 1/4 cup.
The older the engine, the faster the bearing wear. Newer engine, clear oil, no lead.
whys it waste oil use it for something, heat your house with it

Did you go further on this experiment? could you make a video of that in case? It seems to burn the oil efficiently, congratulations.

Great design. Similar to the one I came up with myself. The gas tank is much heavier duty and should take a while to burn out.
I never understand how people can look at something as simple as that and then ask for " Plans" to build one themselves.
Clearly, If you don't have the skills to look at that and build it, you sure as heck don't have the smarts to operate one.

@definca SPREADS LEAD (Pb) CONTAMINATION all around where you live--from the wear from the engine bearings, . . .

I've played with the turk and yours looks great. I would love the plans too.

How do you feed the oil into the burner? just dripping?
