With wood stoves and hobo stoves being quite popular nowadays it got me thinking to a few years back when I did some walking across Turkey. One of the places I walked to was called Sandras Dagi (or Sandras Mountain in English), on the way up through forestry I saw some of the local forestry workers/tree fellers and they had little woodburning stoves to brew their tea on (tea is very poplar in Turkey but its not like our English tea). As is the custom in Turkey you are always welcomed to stop and have a ''glass'' of tea with them. The stoves had a little tap on them to pour boiling water and the top part could also be removed so food could be cooked too. The stoves are called a Semaver or Samovar depending on the region and I suppose its their version of our Kelly Kettle. The ones I saw were round ones, however there are also oval/rectangular ones which they call ''Flat'' ones. Anyway thought it may be of interest to the wood stove fans (some say they use coal in these Turkish stoves) though no doubt many will already be familiar with them.
The ''Flat'' type do not split to cook food and are purely for boiling water, the vid below shows the flat ones being made in Turkey (though the round ones are also shown in the vid briefly). English subtitles in vid.
