Wood Gas Paint Pot Stove

[Seoras]

I facilitated a session at the Moot and asked folks to bring along any sort of cooking constructions they may have had that others could be interested in.

One that was shown was the Wood Gas Stove by Ian Woodham

You start with a load of bits and bobs



And end up with something like this



This was the first time I lit it and used far to much tinder and kindling.

Here is a picture of Ians stove in action



To see how I did it click on the Photobucket link below

Nice stove George

Ian's stove performed really well when I saw it at the moot.

Any chance of a bit more detail on this? I've fiddled about with paint can wood gas stoves but getting the air flow right is tricky and I've never been satisfied with the results.

Seeing a successful design is great but It's hard to see the construction in the photos. Assembly diagrams with dimensions would be ideal.

George, is there an insulating filler between the cans?

 

[Seoras]

No Stew. The burner requires a space between the inner tin (burner) and the outer tin (paint pot) in order to work.

The tutorial will explain it better.

Still doesn't work for me. I think it's because I was some sort of tyrannical despot in a previous life.

Looks interesting.

A bit of a psychic moment ...
