How about the doors from a 55 gallon stove kit?

Welcome!
I have had best luck finding misc. doors at the dump/transfer station and scrap metal yards. Now I suppose you would have luck on craigslist.

I guess I need to go dump diving soon. I have built doors for a previous project but I thought it would be easier to get some premade, since I have not started on the boiler itself, I could build it to fit the doors.

I built a downdraft gasser in the past, was worried about smoke. I bought some land (hope to move is a year or so, bad time to sell a house) and there is no need to worry about it anymore. I am going to build a concrete block
stove with water tank sitting on top. If I super insulate and keep combustion temp high enough and plenty of water storage, it should no smoke to bad

They sell doors for thier boilers (I have one). It is cast iron door with simple hinge and latch. Making the square frame for it to fit and hinge would not be too hard

I will have a look.
Here's a link to a sawdust burner built years ago. They bought the rights to continue producing these.
I believe they can also make castings to you liking.
