Stove pipe help in shed, on the cheap

Im putting a wood cook stove in a shed Im converting to guest room/reloading room. I need to find cheap stove pipe options. It will go through wall then up. It is a small cook stove that will not see a lot of use. I believe it will be 6 in pipe, it has an oval outlet on stove, apx 5.5 by 7.5. Not looking for up to code or spending thousands of dollars.

Thanks

they make conversion to go from oval to round of various sizes. when i installed mine i raised a window measured the oening and cut piece of concrete board to fit and cut round hole in concrete bd. you can use concrete bd as a heat shield also. good luck

Also an oval can be made just by squeezing the pipe onto the stove. That is how mine is. Then after a short section of pipe add the reducer/enlarger. You need to get it where the crimped end of the pipe in downward.Where it goes thru the wall, cut back the wood far enough, then add the cement board with proper size hole cut in.

Cheap is fine and all, but between black powder and guests being around, you do want some sort of safety involved, or wat is the point? There is a reason not many frontier log homes survived..... They didnt follow any chimney codes either.

Be really hard for us to advise you to string up aluminum drier vent and go on your merry way, if you can understand where I'm coming from?

(No, don't use drier vent.......)
