oil fired fire box

[Jbird]

hello all. I am thinking about makeing my own space heater for the gararge and I am looking for any Information regarding the construction of the fire box it self namely; what is it filled with , fire bricks I assume. Also I will be useing a forced air burner. I am flexable regarding the box itself as I just have a double gararge to heat.
Thanks in ADVANCE

do you also intend to make your own fire extinguisher (foam for oil I think)?

I hope this a joke.
If you are a chartered engineer in the appropriate subject you would know how to do this safely and ensuring proper combustion of the oil - otherwise carbon monoxide is a likely by-product.
If you aren't why not buy a second paraffin heater of the type used in domestic houses quite commonly until the 1970s - rather than attempt suicide by designing your own.
