I’d like to set up an area for wood heating in my backyard and wondering how to go about it.
Perhaps an old wood stove or barrel stove kit using a 55 gallon drum that I can set on brick or build something around. Want to avoid building an official "structure" that would have to conform to zoning/building code, although a roof covering of some kind would help to protect from rain and rust. Might get away with a lean-to, as long as it's not enclosed on all sides.
I also like the idea of getting the smoke up high and out of your face.
Heat retention I'm not sure how, but wouldn't a wood stove be warmer than an open fire?
