masonry stove plans

A friend of mine says he remembers seeing some plans for building masonry stoves using relatively (compared to masonry stove kits) cheap materials such as flue tiles, sand, field stone, etc. Does any one know where I might obtain such plans. At this point I could not afford to build a masonry stove from a dealer as the entry price is about $4,000...and this does not include the facing material such as brick or native stone...just the essential internal parts. My friend said he thought a quality masonry stove could be built for under $1,000 using the cheaper materials but if I were to choose this path I would want to make sure the design was safe.
