True hot rod camping craftsmanship. Bravo! Maybe consider ceramic coat next build, and curl up the ends of the pan support, centering it, to ensure the pan can’t slide off?
So glad so many are interested in building one similar! Here are my basic dimensions: 4” x 4” square tubing. Main shaft: 16” without the plate holder. Fuel/Wood shaft: 12” on the longest side. Attached at 45 degrees.
My friend made a cooker that attached to his car header Witch is great it's what I call fast food. for those place like ocean city MD were you are not even allow to have a gas bbq or grill.
I made one for myself i put the airinlet just below the woodfeeding pipe used a smaller 60x100 mm square pipe its great for cooking fast burning up to temp in few minutes
Great skills and good design about increasing the space for more wood to burn, my little suggestion for review is if on the air inlet you add a rectangular drawer to extract the ashes away from the combustion chamber.
Yeah, as is, you have a very limited burn time before you gotta turn this thing back on it's rear side to empty it. Honestly, if the bottom had a diamond grate hole, you could just dig a little 4x4x12" hole and set the stove over it and let the ashes fall into the pit. Easy to extinguish with a bottle of water and plop the original sod back on after.
Just built this, my 1st rocket stove ever and it's amazing! Thank you so so much! The plans even came in metric which was incredibly helpful. Thank you so much again. Salute!!!!
Hi Mr Voss, your work is excellent,i just subscribed,also is a way to dont waste wood! My question is,it is possible to make on the bottom of the rocket, a ash drawer,to avoid the air flow get clogged!
Just a cooking tip from an elderly boy scout: If you're cooking on an open flame the pot/pan bottom gets sooty and hard to clean. Solution: Soap it up well with a wet bar of soap. Let the soap layer get sooty; it washes off easily.
Very nice craftsmanship! If may respectfully describe my discoveries (errors) with my home build ... 1. The bottom of mine burned out after 4 summers of camping use. Because the coals were sitting on raw metal. Solution...on version 2.0. I made the burn pot 4 inchs deep to hold a good layer of sand or dirt insulated the raw metal bottom. 2. On version 2.0. I moved my ash clean out 2 inchs above the burn pot dirt sand level...this created a hot 3 inch zone of intense heat. 3. On my version 3.0 i added grate of scrap metal to hold the wood 2 inchs above the coals...burned hotter than hell and sucked air in from clean out! Again let me say i admire your craftsmanship.
Very nicely done 👍 Most folks don't know the sound of a well built rocket stove. Yours seems on point from the audio. Viewing this has inspired me to re-visit the cranial file cabinet and tubing rack. A resurgence of sorts. Many thanks for creating this video, Justin. Well done sir!
And the sound of the bacon didn't hurt, either. I believe Bob says that proper bacon frying technique should sound like a mig welder. Something like that.
Justin, thank you for sharing this build. You've made it a very sweet design and a great build! I know I'll be making one like yours for my own use. I'm wondering about making a grate from small diameter steel rod, with the pieces laid criss-cross and welded where they cross. Have to look at that - I've got a pile of bar stock (3/16 in. & a bit of 1/4 in. round) in my offcuts. Something I saw in 2015-16, on a larger, clunky rocket stove cobbled up from plate sections (uggh!) was having a small (1 to 1-1/2 quart?) water-heating tank on the side opposite to the wood feeder. Square tubing would make it simple. Arrange the filler to one side at the top, & hot water drawn off a few inches above the overall bottom plate - high enough to get a cup or small pan/pot underneath. It wouldn't have a filler that sealed tight, so it couldn't become a "boiler bomb." For a drain, ideally it wouldn't stick out, to avoid snagging something and tipping the stove, or just being snapped off by accident. It would hold enough hot water to make 2-3 cups of coffee, or to mix up another part of a meal in a small pot while a pan was cooking on top. Must give that some more thought. Anyhow, you've made this a work of art as well as a great rocket stove. Thanks!
Cracking build Justin, you have taken many of the best individual features of rocket stoves and made a great version for yourself. nice arc shots too buddy :)
I welded aluminum stainless and mild steel for 40 years. Tig is the best way to go on projects like this. I think it is cleaner with better penetration. Great job on that stove. I taught a lot of people few have your kind of skill it is a work of art.
I knew this was gonna be a great job when i saw your neat welding at the beginning. Thank for the information and inspiration to build this. Stay well Ash from Scotland 🏴
Justin, I find this video inspirational! I recently purchased a tig welder, I'm retired, that makes this also an opportunity not only to build a cool and efficient rocket stove but a terrific tig welding project as well.
I think its a welding level B or A to start into TIG welding. I dont recall at which level in my courses i started in TIG, although the beginners course started at level C with stick and Mig and oxy acetylene. The old timers always said to me to do TIG its not about being a hero, to learn TIG well its about getting your body comfortable.
That's a beauty! I like the rear air intake, and the trivet to hold the pan is very nice. You should build a "chimney oven" for it. It would be very cool to do some outdoor baking with that thing. I saw one a while back, it was like a 14x14" box inside of an old gas cylinder. The escaping smoke goes around the inner box (that your food goes into), before exiting. These rocket stoves are amazingly efficient. Once it's running hot, almost zero smoke. Very cool project!
Skilled fabricating, The best design for a rocket stove on u tube , built one ,took it north of 60 on a fishing trip ,broke it in on a great fish fry . Thanks Justin !
Like it! Built one, but then drilled 1/8 hole at the top and enveloped the vertical part. This way you get super heated air that re-burns the smoke. More heat, more efficient and virutally no smoke, once heats up.
After building this I have some advice. Firstly the chimneys is not long enough to make the thing rocket. Secondly a the air intake does get ashed up quite quickly. Third the shoot is a little too large making it top heavy. It is a good starter rocket stove but I am now making a J type which seems to be more versatile ❤ That said.Your welding is awesome 😊
@ The next one I’m building will have a 600mm(24") flue / chimney. This will produce the draw that will cause the rocket roar sound. Also look into the secondary burn, there are many RUclips videos on this
Def not taking it camping or really anywhere due to weight but this is a great idea for like a flagstone grill, just a neat idea to sit around and have breakfast on Saturday morning :)
Good point! Just wondering, in terms of tipping, making it symmetric - with two preheat/feeding inlets (and potentially, if necessary, incorporating some flaps to regulate the draft?
Nice work! For the grate on one I built, instead of expanded metal, I drilled a series of holes and ran large nails through, welded them in, and ground off the ends. Worked pretty slick.
I was thinking about that 2 I think I would Use change link Welded tight shaped the way I want. Then make rest of handle removal Inorder to keep head transference to a minimum.
I just finished mine, a handle would be very good addition, however placement would be a little problematic as the whole thing heats up significantly when in use and it's center of gravity is not equal which makes placement difficult in relation to the main flew
it wouldn't require much additional work. Just a cut above the air inlet to fit a plate that can push/pull and drill the sides for bolts that the choke plate can rest its weight on.
@@PrivatePrivate-do2on I do. And I can add a handle or customize sizing and add names or whatever you like..I can even mirror polish this.if you dont want it spray painted black..it looks better

Your TIG welds are so clean! Great job! I'm going to try to make a rocket stove. I am a beginner in welding. I bought a welder that will do MIG, TIG, STICK welding. Wish me luck! I did some stick welding in high school 50 years ago.
@gregbush8573 yes, your comment is true, I like to just hear the actual work being done, I cannot understand this seemingly strange desire to have loud music. The star of the video is the rocket stove and it's manufacture. I clicked on the video to see a stove being made, NOT to listen to music, if I want music I watch music videos. I don't ever recall a Music video where it shows a welder or hammer or sander being louder than the Music. Hopefully bloggers get to understand this basic principle. 🙂
Hats off to you Justin that is some fine craftsmanship. I had a brain fart while watching this build, what about taking the design of a smokeless fire pit and adapting it to the rocket stove. You would have the first smokeless rocket stove and in a shtf situation you don't want smoke. You would only need thin sheet metal and it would act as a heat shield. Like most engineers I have the idea and you workout the details. lol
@@JustVoss Did you ever make any of these for customers? I'd buy ne. I know it would not be cheap. But an excellent design. Best rocket stove I've seen.
I _just_ finished mine. Then what pops up in my feed? This video! Kinda wish I’d seen your build first. I went with the 2/3 vent/feed tube. I’ll likely add a vent under the combustion chamber like you did now.
Nice job, earned a sub. Recommendation from a professional RUclips Video consumer? Not a fan of the music, but if you're attached to it, turn the volume down on it a bit. It can be VERY overpowering.
Simple, clean, nice looking and a great build with quality workmanship! Thanks for posting! …… You mentioned during the build about a great opportunity for one of those weld magnets. I do everything by my self and have a few and they are great but I also have a few magnet I took out of old microwaves that are strong and very useful. Thank You again!
I think two holes, either on opposing sides or opposing corners, would be useful. You could then use tent pegs to hold it in place, so it's harder to accidentally knock over
I stacked a bunch of bricks I collected and made one just by stacking, and will use it if (when) the power goes out. I was surp.rised at home efficient and hot it got! Now, it has to be babysat for feeding in fuel, but yours is the real deal, self feeding. Now I'm thinking, what about a brick tower and base, but make a slanted steel chute...? Hmmm. 😏
Don't like music when watching videos. But you stopped it everytime you had something to say and that was really a Great sound. And a Really Good Video! Yours is the best rocket stove design I've see this far... Merry Christmas to you and yours 😇
Great video an always humorous because fab’in something doesn’t always come together as planned out an sometime you need to take a Vear it just keeps the focus anjoy in it. Thanks
WHY in the world would there be so many dislikes? IDIOTS! This is cool as hell, great job! I have a MIG and a stick welder and sure wish I had a TIG welder. Those are the bomb! But yes you did a very good job on that. AWESOME 👍🏼
Music way too loud, constantly keeping my mouse on the volume control for when you'd talk... Great video and build though! I liked that you showed figuring out fit ups and work holding - and great arc shots.
Rocket stoves normally have an insulated firebox to ensure complete combustion you need 1000c+ in side the fire to ensure combustion of the combustible gases. A second sleeve with some perlite or vermiculite would work as a secondary edition. Nice self feeding campfire though.
So when we moved in 1.5years ago, there was this crazy looking metal thing in our yard. Well today I came across your video and now I know!!! Going to clean it up and replace the grate and fire it up!!!
I had me one dem too. Had the worst case of "cantshuthefuckup" I've ever seen. It's like diarrhea of the mouth and she be sittin there shittin all over herself. She loved it when I handed her a roll of TP and said here don't forget to wipe
If your saw is the Harbor Freight red floor model, I took the slider block off and just used one edge of the bolt head to tighten on 4" box. Had to grind an 8th inch 45 off opposite edges of the blade guides as well. Handles 4" square tube fine now. Just a thought.
Is there anywhere i can find the dimensions of this? My dads been wanting one for a while but never put any thought into it. Would love to make him one.
You don't need exact dimensions for this project. I made one of these rocket stoves in a welding class but with a slightly different design. Basically any (welded steel) structure with an angled slot for wood, a vertical feed for heat and smoke, and some kind of "shielded" air flow/opening/tube/whatever will do the trick.
It's 4X4 tube. Eyeballing from there, the vertical tube appears to be in the 18-20" range, (just guesstimating from the video), The other piece crosses it at a 45d angle, and the "short" edge of the 45 being about 8- 9"". about a 2" tall air gap on the bottom of the other side. My guess is the taller that vertical piece is, the slightly better the "draw" will be, but the bigger you'll want to make the baseplate to keep it from tipping over. Like Mitchell S says - the dimensions won't make or break it.

This is sick. Definitely gonna be my lunchtime project at work next week.
Like it! Built one, but then drilled 1/8 hole at the top and enveloped the vertical part. This way you get super heated air that re-burns the smoke. More heat, more efficient and virutally no smoke, once heats up.

Third the shoot is a little too large making it top heavy. It is a good starter rocket stove but I am now making a J type which seems to be more versatile ❤

I am also curious about the height of the chimney and if there is a formula for diameter to height which burns most efficiently
@ The next one I’m building will have a 600mm(24") flue / chimney. This will produce the draw that will cause the rocket roar sound. Also look into the secondary burn, there are many RUclips videos on this

Welded tight shaped the way I want.
Then make rest of handle removal

I just finished mine, a handle would be very good addition, however placement would be a little problematic as the whole thing heats up significantly when in use and it's center of gravity is not equal which makes placement difficult in relation to the main flew
Same thing I thought HRU Bricks
Two handles or a wagon
just use the trivet as a handle. The shape acts as a heat sink, it has enough separation from the stove to cool quickly.
I would consider a choke for the air inlet that you can open/close.
it wouldn't require much additional work. Just a cut above the air inlet to fit a plate that can push/pull and drill the sides for bolts that the choke plate can rest its weight on.

I _just_ finished mine. Then what pops up in my feed? This video! Kinda wish I’d seen your build first. I went with the 2/3 vent/feed tube. I’ll likely add a vent under the combustion chamber like you did now.
How well dose your stove work with a 2/3 air/fule feed?
Because your phone listens to your conversations
Last weekend I talked about building one with a friend, and now I see this.
Nice job, earned a sub. Recommendation from a professional RUclips Video consumer? Not a fan of the music, but if you're attached to it, turn the volume down on it a bit. It can be VERY overpowering.
Simple, clean, nice looking and a great build with quality workmanship! Thanks for posting! …… You mentioned during the build about a great opportunity for one of those weld magnets. I do everything by my self and have a few and they are great but I also have a few magnet I took out of old microwaves that are strong and very useful. Thank You again!
Made it effeciently. Very talented and graced person.
Dropping dime's I like the up close welding
I’v been working on getting better weld shots
man, these videos are really well put together. thanks for sharing!
Thank you!
I felt a lot better (less confused) when I found out your day job involved video production. Nice work on both fronts.
I think two holes, either on opposing sides or opposing corners, would be useful. You could then use tent pegs to hold it in place, so it's harder to accidentally knock over
Cheers Mate. Really appreciate it. I wanted to build one and now I know how. Great video. Warm greetings and best wishes from Queensland Australia 😃
I like it. Maybe add a carrying handle on one side or both. Looks great!
I love this, suggested it to my mom who lives off the power grid !
Definitely, she may want an insulated one.
I stacked a bunch of bricks I collected and made one just by stacking, and will use it if (when) the power goes out. I was surp.rised at home efficient and hot it got! Now, it has to be babysat for feeding in fuel, but yours is the real deal, self feeding. Now I'm thinking, what about a brick tower and base, but make a slanted steel chute...? Hmmm. 😏
Make your chute out of terracotta
That thing is more well built than any rocket ever.
Real shit. Flat earth
Don't like music when watching videos.
But you stopped it everytime you had something to say and that was really a Great sound. And a Really Good Video!
Yours is the best rocket stove design I've see this far... Merry Christmas to you and yours 😇
Thanks so much Jason I just tried the one I made out based on your plans. I do think yours is the best design so far.
Glad you like it!
Best made rocket stove I have seen so far....👍🏽
Great video an always humorous because fab’in something doesn’t always come together as planned out an sometime you need to take a Vear it just keeps the focus anjoy in it. Thanks
Rarely ever goes as planned for me
started watching these videos, got super keen and just bought a TIG, sadly amazon wont ship the gloves to Australia :(
Damn man. Try ordering them off my defiant metal website. I’ll probably lose money but I’ll ship them to you.
@@JustVoss absolute legend, do you happen to have a sizing chart?
Barrett Lewis yeah, I bought a set when I bought my welder, I just wanted to support the channel and get some nice gloves at the same time
I wear XL in other brands and a XL in mine. So I’d say true to size? 🤷🏼♂️ but no haven’t made a chart yet sorry.
Sweet job man. Any ideas for an attachment to make it a low ceiling room heater. Something about the size of a 5 gallon pail maybe.
Pretendo fazer um para mim e o seu projeto e o melhor que vi. O vídeo e ótimo e muito detalhado, parabéns.
Concordo contigo, esse é bem simples e prático, gostei muito também
WHY in the world would there be so many dislikes? IDIOTS!
This is cool as hell, great job! I have a MIG and a stick welder and sure wish I had a TIG welder. Those are the bomb!
But yes you did a very good job on that. AWESOME 👍🏼
🥓 🥓 You had me at Bacon. 🥓 🥓
🥓🔥🥓
Everything is better with bacon 🥓
Great rocket stove, Justin. Turn the music down 80% and this would be a great video. Two thumbs up!
Have been doing that in recent videos and I agree I like it better. Keeps the shop sounds audible too.
Will give it a go . I am a beginner welder but this looks doable ! Thanks .
Music way too loud, constantly keeping my mouse on the volume control for when you'd talk... Great video and build though! I liked that you showed figuring out fit ups and work holding - and great arc shots.
Thanks Johnathan
Agree. I liked the video but I didn't enjoy the loud 'music'. Why isn't the content enough without the obnoxious soundtrack?
Poor mouse!! Sounds like animal abuse
It's just like i am watching a movie with no other cast but you..love to see you being cool..
Yep, great video other than that. No music needed at all IMHO
Hey it's a rocket stove, not a rocket ship!!! Close enough is good enough!!! Nice work brother...
Thank man
I thought the same thing. He's building it to aerospace specification quality lol
Rocket stoves normally have an insulated firebox to ensure complete combustion you need 1000c+ in side the fire to ensure combustion of the combustible gases.
A second sleeve with some perlite or vermiculite would work as a secondary edition.
Nice self feeding campfire though.
Dave knows what's up. This isn't a rocket stove.
@@magicponyrides 👍❤️
So when we moved in 1.5years ago, there was this crazy looking metal thing in our yard. Well today I came across your video and now I know!!! Going to clean it up and replace the grate and fire it up!!!
Very cool!
Я 2 печки таких сварил , удачи и респект тебе коллега.
Well at least it was simple to make! Just need a few household tools, bibity bobity boop you’re done! Simple little stove!
This is pretty basic metal working
"I don't like that hole, think I'll just weld it shut." Why did I immediately think of my ex wife when you said that? lol
😂
I had me one dem too. Had the worst case of "cantshuthefuckup" I've ever seen.
It's like diarrhea of the mouth and she be sittin there shittin all over herself.
She loved it when I handed her a roll of TP and said here don't forget to wipe
Excellent build...this can be passed down to your great grandchildren.
If your saw is the Harbor Freight red floor model, I took the slider block off and just used one edge of the bolt head to tighten on 4" box. Had to grind an 8th inch 45 off opposite edges of the blade guides as well. Handles 4" square tube fine now. Just a thought.
You know those two holes could have been peg hold down points. Makes getting a stable level easier as you can under pack with rock then peg down.
Yeah that would have been good, although they were off centered.
Justin Voss isnt that always the case, hole in wrong place or stock tube annoyingly just to short. Anyway I was smelling that bacon the whole vid, thx
Was thinking the same thing..
Thinking I'd through-drill the legs for stakes, be bad to knock it over and lose that bacon!
I’d have MIG’d it. Love the design though!
So mig is better to make these?
@@bigbadlouroma surely faster welding, but not so nicely looking
For sure! A tig is painfully slow. I’ve got 2 migs, a Tig and a large arc welder. Even my 115v mig would get this done 80% faster at least.
@@gembowicz sure but he paints it anyways. Sometimes I’ll clear coat tig work because it looks so nice like you said.
Is there anywhere i can find the dimensions of this? My dads been wanting one for a while but never put any thought into it. Would love to make him one.
You don't need exact dimensions for this project. I made one of these rocket stoves in a welding class but with a slightly different design. Basically any (welded steel) structure with an angled slot for wood, a vertical feed for heat and smoke, and some kind of "shielded" air flow/opening/tube/whatever will do the trick.
It's 4X4 tube. Eyeballing from there, the vertical tube appears to be in the 18-20" range, (just guesstimating from the video), The other piece crosses it at a 45d angle, and the "short" edge of the 45 being about 8- 9"". about a 2" tall air gap on the bottom of the other side. My guess is the taller that vertical piece is, the slightly better the "draw" will be, but the bigger you'll want to make the baseplate to keep it from tipping over. Like Mitchell S says - the dimensions won't make or break it.
@@matpackey cheers for this information, just needed a rough estimate so I don't make it to small.
Right on here 👍
You can make one quick and dirty in about an hour, this guy made this real nice good work
Bravo belle réalisation. Tres grande précision dans votre travail j'admire. Bonne continuation et portez vous bien.
I like that u tig weld a lot most people would of mig welded it
👍👍
I cringed when he got out the paint. It looked good "naked".
