Interesting little beer can stove

[Mesquite]

Got sent this by a friend and thought it might be of interest to folks on here.

It's an interesting design for a stove as there's only one hole to drill.

Hope you enjoy it.

That looks a lot better than some drinks can stoves!

Capillary stoves are generally excellent and very quick to bloom. I have several

That looks a great little stove very easy to make and no holes to punch!

Thanks for the link, they do look better than normal pop can stoves. :thumbup:

Good call Steve

I might be tempted to abrade through the top of the can to save the jagged cut line.

Now to find a knife that is blunt enough to form those crimped channels!

Mmm reminds me I must put some more beers in the fridge, especially now I've got an excuse to drink a few....practise makes perfect and all that!!

Simple and effective! I would hazard a guess that the stove could be made without a knife if a bit of flint was available?

you can do it with a v tent peg or the y beam peg too

looks very effective and simple to convert, a bit like this one thanks for posting!

Very much like the simplicity of construction on that one Steve - thanks for posting!

I made one of these the other day, much easier to make and alot more efficient than the ones I used to make. I'm in the process of taking the paint off a can to make another one. (the paint stinks)

I guess the holy grail is still the alcohol stove you can vary the output on. I know zelph did one, has anyone seen any other DIY stoves that can do this?

It looks very simple and effective - thanks for posting Steve.
