Aye its very solid as the box starts out that way and adding to it using similar weight steel.

It could even be Addo proof while stumbling around at a meet :D

I have one of those ammo boxes in my shed.

Thanks mate.

Your welcome mate, thats why I posted it up. Personally I think the bison/helsport ones are nice but very expencive. Well beyond me at the mo. I made a bushbuddy type stove the other day after nearly buying one. Im £60 quid richer! as it cost nothing. :D

Glad folks like the design, hope you have fun making them. :)
 
excellent Addo, was this the one you had at rough close?.... You know where we were all stood freezing in the rain..apart from you? ;)

I think that was Davey, as he made one a while back. Toasty warm in there!

Mine wasn't done, but I was happy infront of cliff and martins jerry can fire cooking away. That got very warm sweezing under the decathalon tarp ever nearer as the rain came down :campfire:
 
Nice stove but........... in a polish poncho tipi!

I tried out my small trangia meths burner in the poncho a couple of weeks back sweating my N8u& off first time ever in winter camp I been sitting in underwear to keep from sweating!!!!

I think you going to have to regulate that stove somewhat as its going to be to hot!

Really nice work though hope it works out for you

Just been looking on the site you posted the link to.

They say (quote) "Construction: Fully welded seam Galvanized Steel".

If their Galvanized make sure you burn them in in the open air before painting them - Galvo' gives off nasty fumes when heated which are harmful:yuck:

You will need to burn the original paint off too before you repaint it with stove paint. ;)
