Hi there,
I was inspired by the thread on the hobo stove being made from the Woolworths cutlery drainer ( my local Woolies didn't put them on sale, they added 50p.. ) However I noticed Poundland had stainless steel cocktail shakers. I bought one today and bashed a few holes out of it and tried it out. It sort of works, while I blow into it, I get good gasification (sp?) and no smoke but for the most part lots of smoke, for it's size.
I've got a couple of pics of what it looks like, unfortuantly the light in here and my rather shameful 1.7meg cam make the pics a bit poor.
Looking down into it you can see the holes in the base and large hole on the side near the bottom.
Here you can see small holes that continue around the bottom of it.

So what can I do to improve things? Do you think I've scoobied it right from the word go?
Cheers, Nag.
