You know what fascinated me most!?! When you took off the entire cement out from the bucket without pounding it, and guess what you only used hot water!?! 😲 I think i learned some new tricks from you! Thanks for that!
MAJOR WARNING: NEVER USE CONCRETE FOR FIRE PITS. Any absorbed moisture can literally cause the concrete to explode under high heat. Always use a product that is rated for high temperature.
Well givien that this video doesn't even give proper instruction and we're left to guess, i would suggest no one follow this idea without doing further research.
This is the design which will not create smoke. You have provided small vent in front below the wood chamber and opposite to this another vent to Suck the air which is a must for the wood to burn. Then finally at the top around 2 to 3 inches below the open portion for keeping the vessels so that the smoke will escape without creating a soot deposition on the cooking vessels. Kudos to your efforts. This is the ideal design for a rocket stove.
Okay, people, be wary of this thing: chances are, you'll keep it outdoors. That means it will get wet. Concrete absorbs moisture like a sponge. So when you fire it up, the moisture inside turns to steam and there's a better-than-average chance it will blow up like a bomb. You could get hurt. Seriously hurt. The guy who made this video knows this - if not, he certainly should. And there should be some warning about it.
Also, I've seen bigger fire pit builds that don't require the reinforcement wires (rebar), since this one is so small, would it even be necessary?? It's not bearing a load at all so what's the point of that? Seems like steps that aren't needed to me.
Lots of exploding cement comments on here and it depends solely on the cement used. If you use regular cement, then it will likely crack or possibly explode if the cement was wet. However there are cements made for this type of application. They are usually called high heat furnace or high temperature refractory cements. Those types of cement are non porous and can withstand direct flame without cracking or exploding. Provided you set (vibrate the concrete) and cure them correctly to avoid air pockets. The non porous nature of these types of cements, will prevent moisture from absorbing into the cement and causing catastrophic explosions to occur. Basically use all products for what they were intended for and read the product instructions to make sure you are using it correctly.
I’ve been making homemade refractory cement for my forge for years. Equal parts regular playground sand and plaster of Paris. Water it and mix till thick cement consistency.
Several people have requested a material list in the description, which is a great idea. What is the oil in the beginning? What type of cement mix to buy to withstand high temperatures? What is the green and white objects placed in the bucket? This would be good info to have to make this more of a "how to" video and less of a "watch me make" If you are not going to provide a materials list, then just change the title of the video to Watch Me Cast a Stove From A Paint Bucket"
If I had to guess - oil is probably old motor oil, white object is packing Styrofoam, green is that material that florists use to hold flower arrangements. It looks like most of the materials are repurposed/salvaged waste products. Some info I found on mixing cement for stoves: www.traditionaloven.com/tutorials/concrete.html#:~:text=Calcium%20Aluminate%20cement%20and%20Lime,cement%20replaced%20with%20the%20lime.
The white material seems to be simple styrofoam. The green one, i think, is that kind os sponge used in fake flowers arrangements. The oil is any oil, even already burnt, to release the bucket. The cement mix...is one capable of withstand high temperatures (ask guidance to a salesman in your area). Give a list is cool, but the video is very intuitive.
You can greatly improve the strength of the hardened concrete by keeping it damp for a month or so, after it sets. Cement does not harden by drying, but by reacting with water. Longer reaction time = more strength.
Thank you for that. Because I needed a great little camping stove, and this just went into my favorites. But since it'll be slammed into my storage along with all my other camping gear, the stronger it is, the better it is.... :)
I see that the exploding cement topic has already been addressed👍Mainly its the water trapped inside. Even if its the correct cement, it needs to be slowly heated over the course of a few days. The the cement needs to be completely dry inside and out
You have to use a type of cement called”Refractory cement” for this type of stove.Regular cement can not withstand the heat and will crack.Can’t believe he would put that much work into this project and not know this.Otherwise a great build.
Never ever pick up a pan at 200°C full of oil with bare hands! Oh, and wear body armour when using this stove coz there's a damn good chance it will explode.
Very Cool. The human's ingenuity never ceases to amaze! If I may, one thing I might've done, is put "more foam at the bottom, and put it to one edge. The reason being, it would be the size of a small metal drawer/tray, that could be easily removed for the ashes... ;)
Thank you for this video. Subscribed. Looks like a neat idea but the other posters are correct: You need refractory cement, and you need to keep it wet for four weeks so that the chemical reaction can proceed, for maximum strength. Also, after a month of being kept wet, you need to fire it several times with a very small fire so that any remnant moisture can be driven off.
New subscriber on May 23, '22. This rocket stove is new to me and I will make one in a week or two. I have several new cooking items that I have saved for the rocket stoves and plan to "break them in" this hurricane season. I am on the Alabama Gulf Coast and always like to be prepared for the June to November wild weather months. Thanks for the great video.
So cool, but I wish you put like some words, or a link to words. Some sort of diagram/measurements? What's the goo at the beginning? How'd you cut that foam so perfectly? And agreed you should sell "just add cement" kits, you'd make good money!
Thumb down. You came up with a very nice idea, and took the trouble to show how to execute it. But, people are asking very relevant and important questions here, and you choose to ignore them. So why all the hassle of the video? Too bad.

My favorite part of this is the music. Not kidding. Also, if this guy doesn’t also have his own cooking series too then he’s totally selling himself short.
Wow, when I first read the title I was* disgusted thinking about a stove made out of paint and cement, but Watching this video satisfyingly showed me how unique and magical a simple process like this can turn out to be nothing more but absolute perfection. It's so incredible to realize how simple some household items can be such a great use to us. Thank you so much for sharing, I really can't wait to try this myself God bless.🙏
Not really. We have used cement and concrete cooking stove and no experience of exploding. If fire has limited escape routes and heated to 1000 degrees C it can explode even with fire bricks. Google is helpful to answer that. Our food cooking only requires 74 degrees or 165 F and mostly people will adjust the temperature. So explotion never occured in all concrete stove I have seen and experienced. Plus this vlog also shows outdoor cooking with ventilation.
Any substance that the material used won't adhere to, Vaseline would work there are professionals products called releasing agents, when constructing tilt wall structures we used a liquid form of releasing agent we called monkey blood.
When my husband and I had only been married about 2 years. He built a little fire to grill with on the back Cement porch. He put down aluminum foil And placed some wood sticks Bricks and grill! He poured on the lighter fluid and let it soak in to the wood. It also sunk In to the pavement. Luckily he went into the house when it blew. It blue several holes in the concrete and if he had been out there he could have lost the dial or a finger or whatever. Luckily the baby and I were in the house. Yes it's very dangerous season dry submit because that drought have been there in that patio had been there probably 20 years.
What kind or type of release agent did you use for the cement, and what type of cement did you use. I see you made use of Styrofoam for some of the openings and floral foam for the fire box and exhaust pipe. In the description can you include a list of materials so others. An build one as well?

Vibrate the bucket with a hand sander after the main pour and it will remove the air bubbles for the face of the casting.
Or tap the bucket with a mallet all around and that will release the air bubbles too, if you don’t have a power sander.
Excellent Pro Tip
Good tip!
Frickin’ genius tip right there
Or vibrate it with a concrete vibrator, they really work the best.
I have all of these materials around me everyday. I've never envisioned this. That's fantastic.

@@2bczar4u its metal you can see the welds on it
They make furnace cement that can be used outdoors and withstands over 2000 degrees F . You just have to make sure you buy the right kind

@@chrispatriot Be careful, standard concrete can explode if using for fire pits and stoves when heated.
Is it refractory concrete?
@@practicalguy973 that's the same problem with clay: il it's not completely dried, the water trapped in it boils, creates steam that breaks the piece

Make sure you use heat resistant cements, otherwise you face the risk of the cement exploding due to the moisture trapped in regular concrete
Acetone would melt the foam cores almost instantly instead of having to dig or burn them out.

You can make a paste by mixing burnt wood ash with water. Passing this paste on the outside of the pan before cooking is much easier to wash off.

If you do this, nice design insert some rebar on the top to so you can put a smaller pot. Cut a piece of tin for the top or you will blacken the pots
