For this project I set out to make a wood burning camping stove that could heat a shelter or hot tent (an open floored tent made for use with a stove) without weighing you down on a hike. For such purposes it's necessary to use a chimney, which I decided should take the form of a walking stick. The stoves shown in this video have a total weight of about 3 lbs each (1.4 kg), and are very easy to walk with. The price for each is about $20, and even less if you can find a few of the pieces in your recycling bin.
Here is my earlier video about soup can stoves (useful for cooking, but not for heating a shelter): • How To Make A Soup Can...

Made these out of #10 cans in the Boy Scouts 50 years ago, minus the stovepipe. Nice addition...
Yep, similar to a hobo stove
@@Nighthawkinlight do be aware that there is only a certain number of times you can use #10 size cans before they disintegrate. used them for survival all the time for boiling water and after 15ish times they would burn thru or crack. i give each one of those about 10 max uses before they need to be replaced. maybe try using a stamped steel bucket much like they use for cooking and that should last plenty long enough.
Nice. One problem you will run into is quick soot build-up in the small stovepipe. Combined with the tent stake, the draft will be reduced fairly quickly - quickly, as in a few uses, I think.
Next video: how to make a mini chimney sweeper.
@@FLPhotoCatcher Shove a small bough in it
@@Nighthawkinlight One negative side with the open-bottom design is that it tends to draw moisture from the ground if it's very damp or wet. I guess it could be rectified by using small pebbles between the moist ground and fire as a barrier. How much the moisture affects the flame and it's temperature, i do not know but i have read that making fire directly on the wet ground should be avoided if possible.
As a sidenote, i would not be worried with the soot build-up. Cleaning stove pipe can offer nice little tinkering to do because no-one should be in a hurry while camping/hiking.
All in all, nice and very easy to do designs!! :)
Great design!
Although there are coatings burning off that you don’t want to inhale. Zinc, chromium, potentially plastic on the inside of newer cans, the focus on a budget design should not omit the potential hazards of using products in a way that they were not intended to be used. The chrome coating on the closet rod has nickel and copper that would get vaporized after passing beyond their heat tolerance, the zinc when vaporized in an enclosed tent / shelter will kill you or cause serious brain damage. Just be careful and find materials that don’t have shiny or soft coatings. Clean them well before firing things up. Stay safe.
Probably why he under a tree and not in a tent 😂😂😂
I used to do "living history " ,I was exposed to a system where the draft out of the stove was good enough that they could bury parts of the exhaust pipe under a couple of inches of dirt out of the tent and up a chimney (Feet from the lodge for safety )that rose above the lodge for draft. They ran the pipe the length under there bed for warmth in cooler climates.
Brilliant little stove. Also, genius move having the bird on during the advertisement. I usually stop at the ad's, but the bird kept me till the end. What a star.
Thank you for the video...you've taken the HoBo stove to a new level. When I was a boy near our house was a hobo camp by the railroad bridge. They had stoves like this. I would take my grandma onions, patatos and sweet patatos down there and listen to their stories. I would dream of riding the rails and see the world. But in reality they lived a hard life. Sometimes I would bring one home and grandma would have a fit. but she would always feed them. Now I'm old a still dream of riding the rails.
What a memory you sparked
I’m 58 and still remember my 90 year old grandmother who lived in Anderson Indiana during the Great Depression near a junction station of the rail road. I was old enough to remember her little old house with a alley in back. Simple wood floors a old round topped refrigerator and stove and very little in that frig to eat
My mother told me the stories of how she would take the hobos in feed them or mend their clothes
Something about that era I think also somehow gave me the same desire as a kid to live the adventure of hittin the road jumping rail road trains
I’m sure there were evil and bad people then but I’m also sure it’s nothing like it is now. Today it’s drugs and gangs vs alcohol and the moral fabric of even a drunk is somehow worse
My short story different then yours but I also share that odd same desire
This old song always went so well with it as to me it still does today.

Hello Signal Hunter, have you seen the "illegal freedom" series on the RUclips channel called "Shiey"? It's the next best thing to being able to do it yourself.
Thank you for sharing and please accept my *wholesome!!* award 🥇
I just want to say that I love how spot on your camera work is. It's rare to see this high quality of camera work in the youtube makers genre. Most do the "good enough" quite well, but often have shifting autofocus issues and general color grading issues (assuming they even bother with color grading). But every one of your videos have great DOF and color.
That's a good point. I never noticed the camera work, which means to me that he put in so much effort to it.
Agreed, the camera work is top notch, and it's not this video, I'm ipressed by most of these videos!
He doesn’t post often, but when he does, you know you’re in for a treat
One of the best homemade can stove designs I've ever seen, great job.
That's a genius idea! I especially like the hanging stove. If I were using it, I'd throw a piece of loose-weave steel mesh over the top of the chimney, to catch any errant sparks.
The ground stove also has a benefit in that the volume can be packed with other stuff when not in use and stuffed in a bag. The ground stove, though large in appearance, would likely pack more like a fold up stove, especially if a liner(maybe as simple as a plastic bag) was used to prevent soot transfer to anything that might touch it.
yes because it's so practical to carry a large heavy pipe in the woods. this is just cool. it's very unpractical and doesn't work. sure it looks nice on a static youtube video. good luck hiking carrying that shit around for some km. needs to be collapsible or something...
@@riskinhos You understand that he uses the pipe as a walking stick, right?
Ideal for nesting cooking pots into the main stove can.
@@riskinhos No reason it can't be made in sections. It's a DIY concept. For anyone that makes it, I would assume modification to suit their needs. That pipe probably isn't all that heavy(thin wall steel), but could be made even lighter if another material was use. I don't see back packer types being so interested as I see hunter types being interested. I have seen the back country stoves that they pack in when out in the bush for a couple weeks and the weight isn't going to be much different. If someone is willing to spend a bit more, can always buy some thin wall titanium tube off mcmaster to reduce the weight a bit.
@@riskinhos Walking sticks make walking long distances easier. If you're going on a hike for a few hours, try it with a walking stick and without. You might be surprised at the difference. Hell, you could even use a pair of walking sticks like some old secondhand ski poles, and you'll have a great time.
Basically, it actually really is practical to carry "a large, heavy pipe" in the woods, provided it's got the right dimensions to use as a walking stick. It's effectively weightless when it's touching the ground, which is going to be pretty much all of the time.
Very cool! Instead of hanging the chimney pipe from a tree, I think I would attach a hinged rod that could be driven into the ground as a stand.
Alternatively, you could build a small A-frame and suspend it with some metal wire, if you know you’ll find branches
You could use the triangular flower holders they use in cemetery's
You guys realize that you're going to carry the thing right?
A piece of bailing wire is lighter than any of the previous solutions. String will ignite from the chimney pipe.
@@mikeries8549 or you could make a pile of dirt outside the shelter and lay the pipe on it and if you set the stove over the hole you take the dirt from you can burn larger longer lasting pieces of fuel and when your done and packing up just shove the dirt back into the hole so it smothers any remaining coals three birds with one stone
Or maybe just a stick stuck in the ground with a little y shape to it to hold the pipe. Then you don't have to bring anything with you.
Brilliant design. The stovepipe also throws off heat inside the shelter. I have a suggestion for one additional improvement. Since the incoming air is drawn from the inside of the shelter, it draws a strong draft, which pulls-in cold air from outside the shelter. A short section of thin pipe can be added to allow outside air to feed the fire-box.
That's only worth something when your shelter is that air-tight... which about 99.9% of all shelters are not. Most homes aren't air-tight enough to be worthy of the external air source. Does it help/work? Yes, if done correctly and your home is worthy of it. Whether or not any given home is worthy is highly debatable of course!
Just brilliant. A lot of people are going to need something like this in the near future, and it has nothing to do with camping.
NHL, instead of a coffee can for the stove you could use a 1 gallon paint can. You can buy new ones at a home center or paint store. It also has a lid so you could keep tinder, etc. inside and also a bail type handle to carry it. Might last a little longer than a #10 can.
The lid would provide a rather decent press-fit seal for the chimney if you rigged it right as well. Good idea!
Enormously easier to find a new paint can than a food can.
Another great mod idea.
@@joewoodchuck3824 depends on where you live. i myself share trash room with an resturant and can get tens of cans per week for free.
interestingly, last year when i was experimenting with different stoves while camping, they had put some used
frying oil in the dump too!
i made a chimney out of ~5lbs cans and the stove got pretty warm! used rockstoo. next time i will be focusing more on isolation, perhaps insulated with air by double tarps
So long as the paint can isn’t galvanised!
From my days of youth, this was called a ho-bo stove. The door varied. We used a can opener that made a triangle cut in the tin around the side of the can at the bottom. as in this video the bottom is the cooking surface. The door is the access to feed fuel and for the most part a vent. Though the stove can be placed on the ground it can also be supported with rocks. We actually cooked on the bottom surface. Yet you can place pot, pan, or cup on it and do well. This chimney idea is excellent. It gives the ability to place the stove in a Bush shelter and keep you warm exhausting the smoke to the outside. Extreme caution need be used with these, they do get very hot very quickly. You may get more fire that you want.
Great idea .
I've been combing over all sorts of camp stoves and tent stoves lately and none of them seem suitable for my needs ,such as cost , weight,bulk , actually heat out put ,backpackable, safe use .
The chimney was a puzzle but as a walking stick it's now plausible .
This would work well with a small tent that has a vestibule .
Set on a flat rock with rocks stacked around it as I've done with rocket stoves it's an all night heater .
Thank you for sparking some ideas .
I'll let you know how my next project works out .
Excellent simple design : - )
Very interesting! Noodling the idea a bit further, what about these 2 improvements: 1) using a thick kettle as the fireplace, so that then you can use the spout as the smoke escape by 2) using one of those foil collapsible tubes (sorry I forget the name, the ones used for air conditioning, anyone remember?) to guide the smoke anywhere it fits. Only thing to check is at which point the tube is too hot for this to work (can you point your infrared camera to the smoke pipe to see?)
Great vid, keep em coming
Telescopic Tube
@@alexwoon9354 bless
@e causey the aluminium isn't involved in cooking at all in his idea. Its just the smoke pipe. You don't put the flame in direct contact with it and you don't actually touch the food with it either
Foil tubes as in dryer vents, in a direct flame may burn holes quickly. The more sold tube as shown in the video will last longer. Test and use this system at home or in a controlled environment. They can and will get extremely hot. You use too much fuel and glowing red will light up your life.
I'm 40 seconds in and this is already a better product idea & execution than most Kickstarter/Indiegogo projects...
Awesome little stove, love it. I have my kids w/me out in the woods behind our house doing stuff like this all the time. Cutting new trails, making shelters, building & camping. Lots of fun. Not only keeps the mind busy but keeps me physically busy too. Thanks for sharing such a cool little idea 👍
Laughing at how simplicity can be the best , what a survivalist camping stove this is so good I had to comment twice you've really opened my world up I can now go where VIVE been wanting to go for years it also very stealthily, thank-you again , I'm off to see my friendly engineer pal,to asked him to make me two of them, you should patent this idea ,maybe, thank-you again for your generous idea made my Day
holy moly this look so fun to do my dad always talks about going into the woods and doing stuff like this!
Just do it! These memories can't be bought. You will forever be grateful about those times when your dad isn't around anymore.
I just got an idea for improvement of your hanging stove: how, if you run the chimney tight to the rim through both lids, cut a piece of pipe out inside the can for the smoke and seal off the bottom opening of the pipe? You get most of the lid as a skillet or platform grill. the stove is hung very sturdy (no tilt, no wobbling), and if you want the lid perfectly horizontal, you can drill another set of holes for a tentstake near the top of the pipe and hang your stove from that tentstake, working it in or out for adjustment.
Stay safe and take care
It's like Gyro Gearloose and Bob Ross had a son. Seriously, I enjoy every video. That's a really smart idea using the smoke pipe as a hiking stick!
Removing the bottom and digging a hole to increase capacity is genius. Seems so simple but I never would have thought of that.
Just found this video. Instantly subscribed. 👍✌
Really love these creative engineering videos, especially neat tools for survival or outdoors activities. I also love the consideration for accessibility with common tools and low cost.
heck even just a rod, just drill one side of the chimney and don't go through to the other
Your RUclips channel is one of the highest quality channels I've seen out there. I've watched for many years now and I'm disappointed in youtube for never recommending me your videos. Does anyone else have this issue?
I also love to experiment with a little wood burning stove that I improvised from a cheap stainless insulating flask. I found out, when you drill your small air holes close to the top of the burner, don't just drill them, but stick something sturdy in there that fits the hole, then jerk it over to one side. This gives the flame some rotation, which somehow mixes the gases more thoroughly, which then enables a cleaner combustion with less smoke.
Somehow every thumbs up gets it but I can’t see it. Want to as I know your onto something but I don’t understand the jerking and how it’s turning the flame ? Are you talking about a dampener ?
Thanks for the tip
Industrial designer here. Clicked on your sandblaster video by mistake, then watched this one. Subbed!
I have a mini-keg that I saved after empting its' contents (via me) and keep wondering what to do with it, and this looks like an interesting idea... :)
You deserve an award for the best designed hobo stove ever!!!
Rocket stove videoa are becoming really popular in my language Tamil, here in the southern part of India. Especially after Covid , to boil water and stay safe. The long chimney idea is something we can adapt
What a brilliant efficient way to warm up/ cook without all those nasty smoke emission's getting in your face. I'll be giving this a go for sure. Keep up the excellent work!
One truly great little stove... ingenious thanks for sharing this with us 😁👍
This is the kind of video I'm always looking forward to.
Same
same, there's an aspect of bushcraft and survival that i yearn for in my city life lol, and youtube's done a great job at fulfilling that need
I need to replay gunpoint.
These videos are really comforting and I just want to say thank you, I hope you make more
Very interesting video ! I think my grandkids would enjoy building the stove. Thanks for the idea and showing how they are made. Keep up the good work .
This fellow thinks - AND then does. I like that! Very simple ideas that work.

I was thinking on how to make an inexpensive heater and this ideia is amazing for that
Thanks a lot man, always great videos and content.
I really like this idea! I believe Slim Potato Head had a stove pipe that he made out of a loose rectangular sheet of metal. He would roll it up in the long direction so it was short for storage, then roll it the other direction so it is long for the stove. Then use wire to keep it together or ring clamps.
Walking around like you stole a mailbox, lol. Seriously though, these are cool concepts that, practical or not, definitely inspire to experiment, a thing that I find your videos always do. Just great!
HaHaHa! Walking around like you stole a mailbox!
what a great design. just the fact that its keeps the residue off the pans/pots makes it worth it, not to mention the increased efficiency. and it can be scaled up or down to meet your heating and cooking needs. plus it can be built from materials that would otherwise be considered trash.
There's one thing I would add. Some kind of ring or catch on the can that you can use to grab with a metal rod/pincers so that you can lift it up and move it aside off of the fire. That way you can have better access to your fire for dousing it quickly or adding more wood to it without having to get your fingers near the entrance. Or if maybe you wish to move the stove aside and collect some of the hot coals for whatever reason.
I think you can also avoid the issue of wind blowing the smoke back down the pipe with the addition of an elbow joint to point the chimney vertical. This of course does mean one more piece of kit that you have to carry and or may have to set aside but you can always keep it with your wooden stopper that you plug the pipe with for hiking and a creative mind can figure a solution for packing the elbow along with the rest of the kit.
You can move the can with a stick by hooking into the door opening or onto the tent stake
Awesome video Ben, using the chimney also as the walking stick is really thinking outside the box which you seem to do quite a lot! As always keep up the good work!
the simpler the idea reveals to be the better it is... I can say nothing except that I love it
i always love how cinematic the intros are
What an excellent and well executed idea. This will not make sense for everyone to use but then, no piece of equipment ever does. For the hikers with a need for heat in seriously cold climates/seasons, this makes perfect sense. It could also be carried in a car for emergency use in case of an accident or getting stuck in the dead of winter. I always have a tent or some sort of shelter and a sleeping bag in my vehicle in the winter just in case, and adding this would help a person survive until they could get out of there. There is nothing like a heated tent while waiting for a blizzard to stop. Awesome job.
Great design, that's so simple but yet so effective
Caught out in a thunderstorm, you have your own, personal lightning rod!
Having just bought a 9 foot long, 2.5 inch diameter titanium stovepipe that rolls tightly into a 10 inch long package, which is easily stored anywhere, I prefer the benefits it offers over carrying an 8 foot long heavy steel tube everywhere, and which wouldn't easily fit on a folding bicycle.
I've seen steel vacuum cleaner pipe used as stovepipe, using multiple interconnected lengths, but that too was bulky and heavy, unlike metal foils.
This is a cool idea. Now I want to see the video on how you made the time machine to go back and get a coffee can LOL.
The projects are fantastic but also I just love the ambience you get in these videos. It makes me feel like I am hanging outside doing this sort of thing, which is very nice when I am not even allowed to go out in the street.
Great design. Nice job on innovating new solutions. The million dollar question now is how do you pass it through a tent or something without catching the shelter on fire or melting, as there are tents with zippers in the floor for access to the ground for fires like this and such. Again, great job! Thanks for the video!
I would think a cheap stove jack could be made using a silicone pot holder with a small soup can affixed to it. The pipe could be centered in the soup can with screws.
Reminds me of "Hobo Stoves" we made in Boy Scouts...of course we didn't have the cool pipe and for fuel we used tuna cans with a coil of cardboard inside, smothered in wax and 4 Ohio Blue Tips as igniters.
amazing video ( as always), it would be really nice to see projects with solar panels, and some more projects with that wood gas, that was awesome, maybe a larger version
in the Army we made stoves out of c-rat cans. Cut the lid off, cut vent holes at the bottom and around the top of the can with a P-38, pack the can with sand and pour a little mogas in to the sand, wait for the gas to be absorbed by the sand and light. it worked pretty good.
Man... you’re a genius!! I can’t wait to make one and I’m sure others feel the same way! Thank you for your post and quality video.
You can also use a 50 gal drum,locate the pipe @ the bottom,send the pipe into a tent.So you capture the heat & co2 goes up in the air.
What about using something like a pocket staff ( collapsable staff ) as the stove pipe?
Good idea but unfortunately it won’t work because smoke would leak out like crazy since it’s just a coiled up spring.
@@CreatorCade I was more of thinking that after a few fires the tar from the smoke will stop it from collapsing back down.
@@CreatorCade The gaps are actually relatively small. If there's good airflow I imagine it could actually work because the flow would drag the smoke with it
The "holes" at the segment ends will have next to no effect. As long as the pipe is angled high enough (30 deg or more should do) no smoke will escape from the joints. However, the joints might have a slight effect on the draft (air being pulled over the fire through the stove door), as some air will be sucked into the chimney through them instead.
Again, I doubt these effects would be noticeable. The telescoping chimney is definitely a good idea, allowing the entire device to be easily packed.
Try Henry hover pipe it's cheap and just pushes together
Simplicity in engineering is beautiful by design
I feel this could be made much more efficient by packing some mud around the stove, making more heat go out the top.
Awesome idea - never thought, a pipe as small as yours (2"?) could be large enough to act as a chimney !
I would leave the bottom rim and 1/2" of the tin intact - makes the stove sturdier and you could use a lid, in case you don't want to burn on the ground.
In very wet conditions you can start the fire in the can (upside down) and you got a nice burn and a dry spot, just turn it over - et voila.
Stay safe and take care
These camping device videos are great, but I want to know how to make stuff out of the materials in the woods if I don't have access to tools or things like that. Like in survival situations.
I've done a little of that before. See my grass rope videos. I may do more primitive skill videos in the future
Chop,
Look up ‘’Bush Craft’’ videos. Also “Primative Technology” and then double check the fit on your socks. They are about to be knocked off.
@@evelbill1439 I've seen them before, and I do enjoy them, however many of them don't really show the full process or aren't detailed enough to follow on your own. Though NightHawkInLight is very good at describing his process and material choices as well as showing what is best for different types of situations, so I feel that he would make great survival tutorial videos.
Chop Like how to make a stone knife and carve a stove out of wood? Where the hell do you live?
That cute little bird! This is great to know. The way things are going, if I end up homeless at least I know how to stay warm. Thank you for sharing!
Cool! I am wondering if it could be improved by making the pole telescopic somehow? That way the whole assembly could fit inside the can itself. Albeit making an airtight telescopic pipe is probably no simple task.
wouldnt need to be airtight, if the seams are running in the right direction.. since smoke rises, and the tube causes a fast, upward current..
i was also wondering if a smaller tube could work.. in which case, a real metal hiking stick (telescopic or not), could be used instead.. if somehow the handles or other plastic parts are removed
Vacuum cleaner pipe. Cheap one that disconnects at the middle point.
Connect pop cans or other veggie cans for the flue
génial, genius, simplicity is the hardest way a mind can follow, in our complicated times, merci
One concern of mine is the fumes various metals give off, if there is chromium that could be toxic
No real concern. Fire it once before using in a shelter and anything noxious will burn off.
@@Nighthawkinlight The chromium fumes is not the biggest problems, cans have a plastic coating on the inside of the can and sometimes also on the outside, the coating will burn off on the first use. The gasses from the plastic might not be very healthy.
...I know galvanized steel will put off bad fumes, but like he said, fire it a couple times and you should be fine. I've used these can stoves for 20 years. They are loads of fun
A simple Y fishing pole support would probably be good for supporting the sideways pipe if there's not suitable trees available.
Oh man, you can't cook much on that first one, but I can imagine piping the smoke out and keeping your shelter nice and toasty. A perfect cozy Michigan winter shelter. Yeah I'd snuggle up with a husky in that thing.
If I had a husky...
I love dual purpose things, and love the design. For those who don’t want to use a walking stick, I wonder if a telescoping pipe would allow them to put the stove in their pack.
I had made Barbeque with Can & it worked well with small fan
Option 2 is way better - I would try it for kicks. great ideas. put the fire on the ground or maybe even some found local sand / gravel and ditch the hinges on the air inlet. maybe attatch a cork handle somehow for when you're walking. You don't want a bare metal walking stick directly in contact with your hand probably, particularly when cold. Perhaps a special walking stick glove would do.
I started watching and saw the can on the end of the walking stick and thought it was stupid.... I'm pleased I kept watching!
A very clever designed stove /heat cook system for a tent. And I love your bird. Looking forward to watching more of your videos. Thanks.
Wow! That is super ingenious... I have looked into rocket stoves, but this one has a couple of advantages - including cooking without depositing a layer of soot on your pan!
Without insulation you are screwed will be cold everymorning but for survival in small tent its good in snow great invention.
Excellent idea! I think I'd add a separate steel sheet, to set on the ground to keep the fire from entering the roots of a nearby tree, but I'm totally including this in my kit. Thank you!
One of only two channels I always watch when something new pops up, keep it up 👍
God bless you and your family. Best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪 and thank you for teaching me new skills
For safety reasons dealing with intense wind i'd use a rock on top of the can so it will be pushed into the ground resisting almost every strong blow of wind. Great desing making crafting vital equipment for the lowest price yet keeping the same uses. Noble.
That's really awesome. I'll have to show this to my mom, as she's a pretty avid camper.
Simple, quite frankly well thought out description, despite everything becoming plastic awfully more day and day; these are still common items.....
Coat hangers were what I thought your "tent stake" was to even make it more simple for one that watches n hadn't thought the same.😊...
My only wish was that the stove pipe had fluke to control back draft on windy days, and intake was "fixable in place" with wire or something.....
Cheers! Nice video.....
Love it!! So simple. Really like that you use the one tent stake to hold the chimney and be the hinge. Now, if you got a 30L could out straps on it and use it as a backpack. That way you could fit really big wood in it and stay warm overnight. I'm definitely trying your set up as soon as I move from Florida.
Very cool idea. Try adding a small flap of tin on top of the stove pipe like a china cap. That way any rain water won’t run down the pipe.
Great vid. For the second flat stove You could put it in a colander. It has hole for air and it keeps it off the ground and leaves no trace.
Your ingenuity is always appreciated.
Stove pipe is an excellent addition to the old # 10 can stove and a great idea, thanks.
Something that comes to mind is a second larger pipe around the outside to act as an intake, smaller can inside to provide separation from intake and exhaust. A layered intake and exhaust would harvest otherwise wasted heat from the exhaust, drawing it back in to the fire. Exhaust longer than intake to avoid drawing the smoke back in. Then, the door would only need to be open to feed fuel. Unfortunately, I lack resources to try it out myself.
Definitely making this as a tent warmer for the next camping trip. Gonna try to limit smoke in tent by using puddy weld at chimney and stove connect...and adding a wind block at the end of chimney. Thanks for the great idea! 👍
Video quality is always noticed and appreciated. Keep up the good work!
This is what I have been searching for all my life, and didn't know til now
That was the most interesting I have watched all day, I'm in Australia so we do lots of outdoors stuff but have never seen a camping outdoors walking stick chimney, well done.
This gave me some ideas for my stove creation for my bedroom. Just in case of emergency and no heat source when it's freezing
Thank you so much for this, very useful in rainy UK. If things get much worse I could be taking to the hills. Flourish and prosper
Great ideas! If you took a heavy triangular piece of sheet metal plate, drill hole in the center for stove pipe, and holes near each point to support poles for a tripod style shelter.
I absolutely love these survivalist themed videos Nighthawk does.
This is brilliant!
Classical guitar makers in Spain use a hot stovepipe to bend the sides of the guitar. Now you can make a guitar with this. haha!
Very good content, plus Mo always brings a smile to our faces and warmth to our hearts. God bless that little bird.
Very clever. A simple tripod bracket might be a good option inside a tent w pipe extended out a proper improvised hole in the tent walk.
So spectacularly simple and complex (half-a-dozen science and physics lessons right there) at the same time. Bravo! :)
A simple and practical multi-use design. Very creative. I like it!
Hi there,I am going on a 2 months hike to St Jacques de Compostelle in Feb.full winter.i am taking your design with me.brilliant.
This is genius. You can really build onto this basic stove concept. I would use this for inside tent use and indie small trailer camper use, the angle chimney is simple yet brilliant!
Using big soup&coffee cans is brilliant. Thanks.
