If I understand correctly, you're just having it draw air from the exhaust backdraft into the shop right?

I've had issues with that the first start up of the wood burning stove each year. My advice would be to get a fire starter (those small 1"x1"x4" logs) light it, and let it chill pretty high up the exhaust. The buoyancy of the hot air will help with direction, and after a couple minutes it'll start sucking air in from your shop and out the exhaust. Then get your real fire going and it'll follow that path.
