I had looked for a shop bought woodstove but they seeem to be either small, meaning difficult fueling problems or difficult to construct, or tall and thin or heavy.
I chanced upon a cadbury roses tin and found that my frying pan fitted inside snugly, so this would make an excellent windshield for the pan on a stove. So I firstly made a very small shield for the primus out of a little tin cup, I then drilled vent holes in the lid and base as well as slits for the primus spiders pan supports. I also cut a door into it to accommodate the handle of the frying pan and a small hole th allow the burner head to fire through
As a windshield it is good, very efficient, as you can put the lid of the tin over the frying pan, it's a stand alone unit virtually unaffected by wind. As a wood burning container, it works, but all the holes I drilled in it are redundant as the air rushes in at the door that I cut, leading to smoke, and a cold side opposite the door side. - will have to fit a door closing thing to make it more of a woodgas. There where quite a few ashes left N but it works as a firepit
There is still a bit of work to do on it. It is a bit cumbersome and a bit heavy ( bob if your there bob)
