Hi everyone,
I wanted to share this with you.
I've just finished making this stove from a '50 Cal' ammo can. I made it as a source of heating for inside my canvas bell tent, it should be ideal for winter camping when temperatures drop below zero. Also, I just thought it would be a fun thing to make!
People have made such stoves in many different ways. They are mostly used in colder climates like Canada and Scandinavia. The step by step I have written shows my own design, bear in mind that this is the first stove I have ever made, I am not an expert where stove use and design is concerned so the design may not necessarily be the best. Before I get bombarded with safety warnings, that is covered in the article too...
My full step by step article on how I made this can be seen on my website here:
