DIY Take-Down Wood Stove From A Can

  • The DIY take-down wood stove is designed to make it easier and cheaper to carry a small wood stove with you into the back country. It uses a 30oz or .887 liter bean can as a starting point. Using a few simple tools along with some steel plumbing strapping and a small folding candy tin for storage, you can quickly make this effective project as well as upcycle an empty can into something useful!

    Having an inexpensive wood stove is a great back country option. They are often allowed in certain areas even during a burn ban or burn restrictions. They are, however, usually bulky unless you buy commercially made take down models. So, I came up with a cheap way to make one from a can. I hope you enjoy the tutorial on how to build this stove. Thank you for watching and please leave your comments in the section below!

      Hi. I'm thinking about how to help the homeless and I could build these, but I don't know if they'd be safe in a tent. Whatcha think, safe or no?

    • @WayPointSurvival
      @WayPointSurvival  2 года назад +1

      Yes, they would be safe in a tent but you would want to put the block in a deep dish pan to protect the floor of the tent and in case of accidental spillage. You also need to make sure that they have adequate ventilation, which usually isn't a problem in a tent anyway.

    When my mom first brought that white can opener home she had washed it in the dishwasher, and a part of it fell to the bottom without her realizing it. I could never get it to work & would yell at her from the kitchen asking her to come show me how to use it but she would yell back that if I couldn't figure it out I'd have to find something else to eat. I remember getting so frustrated that I would literally just try to beat it over the top of the can. Then 2 weeks later she tried to use it and yelled at me from the kitchen asking me where the rest of it was. I told her that's all of it that I'd ever seen & I was so mad when she told me part of it was missing I wanted to thow it at her! Good times...

    Yes i certainly liked this video. A good tip would be to make it at home,in a shed or workshop! It saves your back from having to bend down along with working on your knees. i ain`t good on my pins these days. Legs! However working and standing table or bench height would help out us older folks, who like to play.... i always advise others to practice opening up the first aid tin with one hand,just in case one cuts or burns the other hand. It helps sort ones kit out if you a can`t do it.

    I would enjoy a series where you do some of these hobo projects ONLY using an old school camp folding slip joint knife - like a Scout pocket knife or something. Yeah, there are folks who do a lot with Swiss Army knives, and such, but I'd enjoy seeing your projects that way - hobo stoves, etc. Of course, that IS why we use snips and nalis and hammers!!!

    • @WayPointSurvival
      @WayPointSurvival  Год назад +1

      I have a video where I make a stove using only a sheath knife and a church key. The problem with a slip joint knife is that it can fold up and cut your fingers so it's quite dangerous to use on a tin can project.

I have a tin that will be perfect so the stove won't be messy. Burns woods which is everywhere. Tin cans are everywhere. Win, win, win,win, win.

  • @redpillnibbler4423
    @redpillnibbler4423 2 года назад +1

    Here’s an idea,instead of having four sections that you have to fit together make a single cut so the can remains one piece which you can then flatten for packing and simply bend around to use- ok it’s a larger area to pack but much flatter and would fit easily in a backpack.The benefit is a much sturdier stove in use.
    It’s just theory,I haven’t tried it so it might be bs 😅

    Another cool project. 😃 I wonder if you could, instead of trimming off the curls on the sides, turn them onto themselves to have the short tabs but sturdier where they hook together? Also, couldn't you flatten the can sides, since so much is trimmed off the lid grate, just make that more of a square? ⏹That way it would fit just slightly better into the carry tin. Just wondering if you ever tried it that way. Thanks for the informative video. 👍

    Use a regular can opener and you will have a stiffer top rim and the perforated lid gets its "safety edge" cut off anyway. If you lay your 4 wall sections curve side up when you punch holes in them it won't flatten out the walls and you won't need to reshape them.

      It started out being called a 'church key' as a joke, because back in the day churches were never locked and the openers were often attached to your keyring. (the triangle end is the can opener and the rounded end is the bottle cap lifter, both used frequently for beer or soda cans and bottles prior to the pop-tops and screw tops we now use) Over time 'church key' became the popular name for these openers in the same way 'Kleenex' has become the common name of reference for all nose tissues. @@WayPointSurvival

    I have to say that it is a good idea.
    However let's consider why you would do such a thing??
    Yes it's great that you can pack it flat, BUT
    1- You will still be carrying your cook kit. Brew gear etc.
    ALL of which will usually be easily packed "INSIDE" of the stove!!
    2- This build significantly "weakens" the normal can stove!!
    So I must say that this in fact (other than a interesting concept) is totall unnecessary and in fact requires you carrying an extra tin!!
