I have a bubbler already in my fishing kit, and I know I have some holeyiron. I never thought of this! It's a great idea lol. More air for fire means fire burn hotter.
Brilliant thank you. I'm making the grill as a gift. I've been testing things out on the other can to make it as neat as possible. I will do that, thanks for the tip.
That stove will work fine without the pump. Just punch more trianglar holes around the bottom so it can draw more air. No harm in a pump but you can get by without it. Hobo stoves are fun to build and play around with. Thanks for the video.
Use hardware cloth to make a mesh raised bottom to the stove. This will keep the base from getting too hot, give ash a place to fall, and let you use charcoal. Place mesh above the top of the vent holes.
I love looking at every body's take on homemade camping/survival stoves. It keeps my own creative juices flowing, thanks. Using the plumbers strapping for the pot stand, fantastic! I might also add that if you found a log of the right diameter to run inside of the can while punching your starter holes it might be a bit easier to set the nail with less deformation, you could also use the nail to prestart the chuch key holes too. Thanks
Exactly look at how people do them and cherry pick the best ideas for the way you do it and often find ideas you never thought of cuz we all see things differently
I love this channel. For some reason every couple of years i become with cheap efficient and portable stoves even more so then clothing and hunting/fishing implements
Sympa, un poêle que j'ai fait à plusieurs reprise, facile, ludique et amusant ! Par contre la pompe à bulles, ici il aurait suffit de percer plus de trous d'aération mais il y a des circonstances ou ça meut vraiment aider ! Merci ❤
Please take note that this stove is not necessarily for a survival situation. However, if the pump fails or the batteries die you can always just detach the tube and blow into it with your mouth and get the same result. The blower and fresh oxygen helps the wood burn to a fine ash which makes it much more efficient than just a can stove by itself. Thanks for all the views and kind comments.
Thanks for the complete and simple demo. I'm a simple human and after hours and hours of looking on Amazon and eBay, I feel better after seeing how easy emergency/tiny camp stoves (forced air to boot) are to construct at home or even on the trail. I would be happy to spend $40 - $60 on a durable foldable camp stove but after reading the buyer feedback you note that hinge pins can fall out and high temperatures can warp them slightly and dirt and soot might make them difficult to fold up completely. Moreover as you point out, one can also put the accessories inside the stove (protect with a ziplock bag, and another thought just occurred to me, if it looks like rain in the forecast you might stuff that can full of dry sticks for use latter) but just understanding some of the descriptions on these other online sites I feel bombarded with UP-SALES, UP-SALES AND USELESS ADVERTISING links..!! You can hardly see what your buying.. yes it's exhausting at times..! lol Thumbs up and subscribed. Mac out.
Mac, another problem for people like me who live in a country like South Africa is the Rand/Dollar rate of exchange. So stuff bought from overseas costs a FORTUNE. I am also a State Pensioner living on an income of R2090 per month. Fortunately I have a caravan and a side hustle which brings me in a little extra money. So things like this I find AWESOME! They really resonate with me. Believe me, I am an EXPERT in thrifty living.
I think that if you carry a reusable straw of decent caliber, or a length of copper tube, you can blow through it to perk up your flames as needed and skip the electric pump. A hollow reed or cane was probably used quite often by the Native Americans when they wanted to stoke their fires. Let's avoid the unnecessary tech when we can. But I will readily grant the tin can is better, and lighter, than a pottery stove, even if they did make one down in Mexico. Good job overall. Well thought out.
I agree Fla! He explains what he's doing, but doesn't "hang" with each step for a ridiculous amount of time, nor does he over-explain things, which is proper champion. Two seconds is all a person needs to get the idea.
Nice project James! It is always fun and rewarding to take something that would go to the trash pile and turn it into something usable and enjoyable. I have about 20 Gallon cans in storage right now to use with my youth group to make hobo stoves with. I had never seen or considered a pump like the one you showed. Nice job brother!
I'm just going to say it..... I like it! I think it's a great design. I normally wouldn't go with anything that takes batteries, but in this case.... it's genius! Awesome video. Thanks for sharing. I'm definitely going to try it out.
I love this idea, especially for disaster preparedness. If the tube is inserted at angle, the air will circulate around the side of the can bottom more efficiently and produce a more even burn. One of the best thing about these stoves is the fire dies and cools down quickly.
Really appreciate your enthusiasm, clarity, and practicality. This is a fantastic description of construction and use. Your series of mods on the Stanley cookset is fantastic, you've really demonstrated how to make that into a full function one-man tool.
Really amazing how something so simple can be so incredibly useful. I'm into rocket stoves and plan on making one these little gems or maybe a bigger one. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and helping others to become self reliant in the situation arises.
Awesome stuff! I’m thinking that with a couple more copper tubes fixed to the sides of the can you could get them to force airflow out of simply convection. The tubes heat up and air rises through spewing oxygen out of the top igniting unburnt smoke. If you know some electricity you can also use a peltier module or two connected to a fan to force air into the stove, which would run out of the heat it produces as well. I HAVE done this, so has biolite in their wood stove. Mine uses flat Stainless steel plates so I could get the whole peltier module to stick to the stove walls, and copied some existing designs. Firebox worked wonders, but picogrill 85 did too. Eventually got a fan speed adjuster into it so I could adjust the heat intensity for a simmer, but raising the pots higher also worked
Thanks for your videos. Made my first Hobo Stove with my young daughter the other evening after watching one of your old videos. We’ve made several Buddy Burners too.
It is good for a place like a grove or a forest in the desert. There are no twigs. There is nothing to do with this stove. Instead of buying a pump, you can just take a hose to do the same thing and blow air out of your mouth. You need to make holes in the box below for air to enter for a good combustion, but even with holes in this method, they will be blocked by the ashes of the combustion. ,you can't use it inside a tent because of smoke, your example suffers from many mistakes😞
Thank you for sharing.1 idea I thought of from doing plumbing work you can take a small wet rag and wrap it around the end of the copper by the rubber hose so if you use it for a while the heat won't transfer to your rubber hose and melt it.
Total brain fart on me Happy Thanksgiving. Also another thought on the wet towel thing I just thought of. If it is wrapped completely around the copper tube you would have a nice hot wet towel for cleanup after eating, and the cooled air going into the stove might burn hotter. Kind of like a cold air intake for a vehicle, I might think too much about things. Anyway once again you all have a happy Thanksgiving.
I enjoyed your video! I think these little stoves one can DIY just out of coffee, soup and other cans are just so smart. I watched a video yesterday where they made a rocket stove. Really nice too. These types of things are just smart to know how to do whether you ever need to use them or not. Thank you for sharing. ❤️💜💚
A ring of large nails standing proud around the make shift stove would also keep the can from moving or from being knocked over. Well i am quite clumsy. BB in the UK
Hello I commented below on a doubt about the fan, ..but yes it does make a difference and when you be cold ,wet and tired a couple minutes difference in getting something warm inside your body ,yes it's well worth the few dollars, but I did see a flare up when you added the air, thanks for a good video and yes I've subscribed , hope to see more of your videos, and blessings ...Johnny B.
@@WayPointSurvival thank you for sharing, I been camping for years using simplicity and HOLY SPIRIT for good things to make life easy at camp, HE taught us how to make clothes lines that need no pins and not even a sock or wash rag falls off in 60 mph wind
I guess this would be a good reason to carry snips in your pack? Plumber's tape! That's a rather brilliant idea. if you use the church key to make four punctures in the bottom, it makes feet and more air intakes. No need to carry a pump.
Each triangle can opener I have tried so far will pierce the top but bends when I try doing the sides. I wonder what results I will get when I try the Swiss knife can opener on the side ? Waiting for juice can to be emptied .
The Swiss knife can opener may give you better results. I found that with the triangle can opener you have to use a very swift and sharp action to avoid bends.
Cute. Fun project with scout age kids. I'd probably want a somewhat longer copper tube. How often would you have to change the batteries? With the addition of extra air what is the difference in stove temperature? Without the baby bubbler, what temperature differences occur with the vent holes facing away from the wind, at an angle to the wind, directly toward the wind, no wind? Considering the small output of the bubbler, creating a small vortex by angling the tube would not significantly increase the temperature. (Multipurpose stove) With a somewhat longer X you could create a cup/pot shroud from a larger can and shorten the time to reach a full boil.
I'm sure you'd have to experiment with some of those options to really find out. For instance you would probably get a longer burn time with lithium batteries then alkaline. The difference in stove temperature could be as much as a couple hundred degrees depending on what type of wood you used. There are indeed a lot of variables and the only way you could meet all of that would be to just do a series of experiments. Thanks for watching and for your questions!
Interesting. I:ve made these for years. I usually turn your stove upside down and punch many holes in the bottom (top) of the can to serve as a grill. Feed small twigs through the opening that's now on the ground and you can cook about anything. I also made what I called "The Purel Stove" similar principle, but you burn hand sanitizer in a metal can. Only for heating water NOT for cooking. Unless you like your food perfumed (Oh, reducing the hand sanitizer first with a teaspoon of salt, than straining through cloth will make some abt 90% alcohol and gets rid of all the jell crap in it.
I am trying different stoves to see which one will work for me. I would like to be able to use a stove to heat with. For the last hour and 20 minutes I have been boiling water with a magic stove. On the box is says you can heat with it ( nope ) it works to boil stuff. Granted it will be slow, but in a survival situation its better then nothing.
I love your idea. I've been playing around with M18 compact blower but it is way too much. Cerablanket/kaowool makes it super efficient. Now what I need is forced air into my sleeping bag. Not that much, but just enough to keep me from going hypothermic -20F... Use cerrobend to make a curved copper tubing heat exchanger and insulated air hose to your bag. Just a thought. Lots of winter fatbikers up here in AK don't use tents due to condensation. If you could make a portable wood stove that blew a mini CFM of warm air into your sleeping bag that would be AWESOME!
Cool stuff, the air pump is a nice option:) For places where one can't have an open fire but stoves are allowed, this is a good trick. One thing I did think about is making a smaller diameter "x" to place in the bottom to raise up the sticks as they fall to create a bit more space for air flow>) Great little vid sir:)
We use to make something like this when i was a scout, we opened 1 end as you did but the open end was to be turned upside down where our wood would burn and holes were made for ventilation, the other end was closed and that was our cooking plate fast nd effective
You don't need the metal strapping. The bottle opener can be used, as it was at the bottom of the can, to make four holes of equal distance (four compass points) at the top rim of the can. Pierce from the outside, so the flaps are inside the can, raising them up as far as they'll go, ensuring they are sitting proud well above the rim. They can even be made to curl back on themselves, rather than upwards, which still allows your cooking pot to sit above the rim for good airflow and to balance your pot/cup/flask on. The pump idea is handy, but a metal straw serves just as well, takes up less room, is cheaper and has other uses. Just sayin...
Yes, you can use your car battery but the light bulb needs to be 12 volts. So, you can't use a common house lamp but if you can get 12 volt lights such as at a boat store etc then you can just wire them directly to the battery and it will work just fine.
Also, you can get solar lights from the dollar store like the kind you use for lighting a walkway, charge them in the daytime and then bring them in the house at night for light.

Love this project and I am thinking on a way to both make it stronger and let both soot and ash fall out of the bottom for easier cleaning and transport. Btw where did you find the blower again? I can not find it.

I have a bubbler already in my fishing kit, and I know I have some holeyiron. I never thought of this! It's a great idea lol. More air for fire means fire burn hotter.
Glad you liked it!
Using normal cheap materials to make great stuff! This guy gets it!! Don't throw away $50-$150 on premade junk guys! Make your own!
If anyone really wants dent-free, after nailing holes, freeze water in the can first. Nail the can while there’s ice in it.
That's a quality tip mate, thanks. I knew to stuff sand or dirt compacted into it but ice is likely much better. Thanks.
Brilliant thank you. I'm making the grill as a gift. I've been testing things out on the other can to make it as neat as possible. I will do that, thanks for the tip.
Thing is, you need access to some kind of freezing apparatus. I think wet sand tamped down well would work.

Each triangle can opener I have tried so far will pierce the top but bends when I try doing the sides. I wonder what results I will get when I try the Swiss knife can opener on the side ? Waiting for juice can to be emptied .
The Swiss knife can opener may give you better results. I found that with the triangle can opener you have to use a very swift and sharp action to avoid bends.
I think that #10 cans are about twice the diameter of the one that you have?

One thing I did think about is making a smaller diameter "x" to place in the bottom to raise up the sticks as they fall to create a bit more space for air flow>) Great little vid sir:)
Thank you, that's a great idea for the bottom of the can!
Or rocks in the bottom!
You could just make a small pinwheel from the stuff you made the pot stands from.
We use to make something like this when i was a scout, we opened 1 end as you did but the open end was to be turned upside down where our wood would burn and holes were made for ventilation, the other end was closed and that was our cooking plate fast nd effective
Yes, that is a classic scout technique! Thank you for watching and for your comment!
You don't need the metal strapping.
The bottle opener can be used, as it was at the bottom of the can, to make four holes of equal distance (four compass points) at the top rim of the can.
Pierce from the outside, so the flaps are inside the can, raising them up as far as they'll go, ensuring they are sitting proud well above the rim.
They can even be made to curl back on themselves, rather than upwards, which still allows your cooking pot to sit above the rim for good airflow and to balance your pot/cup/flask on.
The pump idea is handy, but a metal straw serves just as well, takes up less room, is cheaper and has other uses.
Just sayin...
Thank you for watching.
Great idea using banding for the X👍

Hi again , can I use a household lamp using a car battery ? I'm trying to figure out how to get light without electricity.
Yes, you can use your car battery but the light bulb needs to be 12 volts. So, you can't use a common house lamp but if you can get 12 volt lights such as at a boat store etc then you can just wire them directly to the battery and it will work just fine.
Also, you can get solar lights from the dollar store like the kind you use for lighting a walkway, charge them in the daytime and then bring them in the house at night for light.
Genius my friend, thank you for sharing. That's a great idea. All the best to you. 🤗
Thank you, Ronald!
While you’re at it ....
Double headed “scaffold” nails make pretty good corn holders.
Good idea!

Salut garçon .
Pour ta facilité , tant que le poêlon n'est pas sur la boîte , donc ! au feu !
Tu retires le croisillon de métal et tu nourris le feu par le par le dessus , lorsque tu as une braise qui peut faire chauffer , tu reposes le croisillon ainsi que le poêlon , gain de temps , et moins de risque de faire basculer la boîte .
Maintenant si tu veux tu peux rajouter un croisillon à la base , et ainsi obtenir une stabilité parfaite .
Petit conseil d'un homme des bois , d'Europe 😉😀
Merci beaucoup d'avoir regardé la vidéo et de vos commentaires sur l'amélioration du feu et des performances du poêle. Passez une bonne journée!
I wonder what would happen if you used one of these pumps on one of those diy "paint can" wood gas stoves.
It would probably increase the Heat and efficiency of the burn.
Great diy forced air cooker !
Thank you!
Excellent idea
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your work. I love it!
Thanks for watching!
nice idea with the plumbers tape, do same aiming at the small holes could be a little more stable, just as simple.
Thank you for watching!
Like the stove and how simple it was to make. Was wondering how well it works without the air pump?
It does pretty well by itself, the pump takes it to a whole new level of efficiency.
Love this project and I am thinking on a way to both make it stronger and let both soot and ash fall out of the bottom for easier cleaning and transport. Btw where did you find the blower again? I can not find it.
Sounds good. You can find the blower either at Walmart in the camping section or there is a link to it in the description box at Amazon.
C est quoi ce ruban de métal?
Il s'agit d'un cerclage utilisé pour fixer des appareils de plomberie tels qu'un chauffe-eau ou une tuyauterie dans une maison. Si vous le pouvez, procurez-vous le type qui n'est pas galvanisé.
Hey, could you use charcoal in this stove

brilliant idea thanks so much
Thanks for watching!
I add a modified Dinty Moore can to the top to serve as a wind screen and to wrap the heat around the cup.
Good idea, thanks for watching!
Very good video .I like it and good idea on da baggy
Thanks!
