  A simple test I tried worked pretty well.  It involved an old oil 
furnace burner and the barrel wood stove in the shop.  Simply 
get a fire going then I put the burner to the draft hole in the 
door and fired it up.  The oil had to be up to "room temp" first 
but it worked well enough that if it were a regular use shop I'd 
seriously consider mounting a burner to the side or something 
on a permanent basis.  :-)
