I really like your setup. The tire, the pot on the stack of bricks, the red watering can and the pyramid. Trashy, but in a very good way. I hope you don’t take this the wrong way. I mean it as a compliment.

I am thinking the pile of bricks is a chimney for heat. It looks like there are big pots/Dutch Ovens of hot water for heat.

Yes, this is a rocket stove for heating. The chimney is portable. If necessary, I will put the chimney in its place. The top of the pyramid opens, the end of the chimney goes out. When it is heated, I close the tip. But it is still not a good construction, because the stove is small and you need to constantly put down wood.
