Blackwood South Wales
Made from an old flask
Removed the plastic collar and removed the internal pot
drilled holes around the base and cut out hole for stoking,drilled holes for internal pot support above the filling hole
The wood collected was old bits that had fallen out of trees in my garden,[no trees were harmed in the testing of this hobo {:)>
sprayed about 5 mls of meths on the wood as a starter and had 600mls of water in the pot
The second picture is the wood I had left after the water had boiled about 12-14 min so will try and improve on the time
Tipped 300mls of the boiled water into a mess tin with Cross and Blackwell macaronie and cheese sauce and held it over the flames and continued to add the rest of the wood and it burned for another 5-10 min so the cheese sauce thickend but the macaronie was still a bit crunchie
