Rough Clean the Gasket Channel

repair kit now you might say Josh why are you replacing this gasket this is out in the shop it's not a big deal it's why would you even replace it it opens and closes just fine everything works great why would you replace it so the basic reason behind having to replace this gasket is the inefficiency of the heat so I want to be in control of how much air gets drawn into this stove so that I can optimize the amount of wood that I put in it if I put a bunch of wood in here right now it draws so much air in there that it doesn't really heat the stove up so much it just sucks air right through onto the wood and burns it up really really quickly and I want to optimize that I want to burn the wood slowly and optimize the amount of heat that I can get out of this thing now it has a built-in fan in the back and they're little grates right here and at some point we may end up figuring out a way to angle those grates out into the shop in a direction which we want it to go and we also may at some point try and insulate this shop but for now we're just going to do what we're doing here we're gonna optimize the heat that's put out from this wood stove by putting a new seal on here and I'll show you with it closed here let's get you a little close-up so this is latched closed and you still have that much plate in there so we've got to put new seals in here to make it work right and then we can control the air inflow little twist things I'm not sure what they're called guys leave me a comment down there tell me what these things are called I think they're called I don't know something to do with the draft I'm not sure let me comment part of the channel here is about cool tools if you guys didn't see my video this is a adapter kit for your old school 18 volt DeWalt tools it adapts right here is a great Christmas idea by the way it adapts to the new style lithium ion battery which is a whole lot better you know it tells you how much battery power you have there by pushing a button and it just slides into place I'll show you how it works so this is an old this is like a 20 year old saws our reciprocating saw and basically I just popped that guy on there and now I can use my new batteries okay the new style batteries I just couldn't see throwing away a good tool if you haven't seen that video I'll post a link right here it really works it works great now these little guys here this bristle brush I'm gonna go ahead and install it on the sawzall here I called a sawzall I call…
