Stove build - If only I had the skills............

[g4ghb]

Just came across this Stove -

- This looks to be JUST what I'd like

It ticks all the boxes and looks ideal for a lavu etc

Is it too late to write to Santa?

I was watching that vid on youtube earlier, it's a very neat stove. He does other stoves too.

That's a nice looking package. I probably didn't need to know they exist.

I like the look of that one. But how much does it weigh?

That stove has a big footprint. Hope you have a big tent. Like a canvas shack tent = 10' x 15'.
I can recall cooking on stoves that size and bigger. They are a real dream, once warmed up.

I rather like the racks on the side. Good for drying socks or keeping pans warm.
I have one of the frontier stoves. I've not used it in my bell tent yet . Only in my garden to cook things on for a bit of fun. It's a pretty good stove. But heavy. I'd like to get a titanium folding stove.... but sadly I'd need a sugar daddy to afford one of those

The old Scottish Travellers used a "drip tin" made out of a 5 gallon oil drum. They were free, lightweight, and very effective for both cooking and heating.
Similar to this, and very easily made. You can cut the thin metal with a decent set of kitchen scissors.

If you get one with a wide pouring mouth, you have a ready made chimney hole.

The stove I like is the big rectangular one that fits inside its legs for transport.

Its in Kephart...do you know the one I mean?

Wonder what they used before the oil ( and kerosene?) cans?

Is that stove made from copper? Looks good and compact.

Nice build, especially since seems to have limited tools.

Also reminded me too look at PF Bereg's site (Lars @ Survival Russia mentions them quite often)

Some relatively inexpensive stainless stoves.

I've been thinking of an ammo can stove too. A friend has offered to build one for me, but I'm dreading the cost of postage once he's made it, so I'm holding off on that for a bit.
I've seen one made out of two large ikea ....(of course.. other makes available ) .....roasting pans. Hmm much lighter to carry. Have to have a think on this. A lot less work grinding off handles etc...... maybe..... ahrg! Decisions!

I turned an old PC case into a stove, I just winged it as I went along but it was a fun project

Can't believe it's 7 years ago but I've found the pics buried away in a dusty corner of photobucket

Another build, using gastronorm tins.
