Nimblewill stove

[Pignut]

Anyone on here regularly use a nimblewill stove?

Bout to make one but wont waste my time if they are no good

 

[jdlenton]

I've made one in the past but don't use it much any more as there are better hobo stoves out there now

Non seem to fold half as flat!

 

[jdlenton]

fair enough if you want them to fold flat then the nimblwill is for you for heating and fuel use efficiency some of these designs are great plus i carry a 12cm billy and that wont go flat so my stove goes inside it.

 

[jdlenton]

Good point, I also carry a 12cm billy, However it is full of my brew kit

this one looks good!

[jdlenton]

the triangular one is quite nice

As for your brew kit could that not fit inside the stove iside your billy like what i'm planning to do

 

[Pignut]

Indeed!

Now where did I put those tin snips?

 

[jdlenton]

bent or straight I've got both you can borrow mine

 

[Pignut]

LOL!!!!

You have given me a cunning idea!!

Will post some photo if it is half as good in reality as it is in my head

I used a nimblewill stove at the bushmoot this year, i had a sheet metal workshop make most of it for me & i finished it off. It worked fine so long as you keep the air holes clear as the ash builds up, it packs very flat & on the zen stoves website someone makes them in two sizes anyway! I think it is a first class bit of kit with fuel everywhere there are trees.
