    look up prospector stoves, we use them in remote mining exploration to heat tents. Basically its a flaming garbage can that has a slow diesel drip from a Toby carburettor. All you would need is a carb on the side of the stove, and a copper pipe feeding into the stove body and a diesel tank with a gravity feed. we've run these stoves for weeks on end with almost no maintenance, and one job where I was in the arctic we ran them non-stop for 5 weeks and went through only 2 45 G drums of diesel.

    Would methylated spirits be a safer fuel ? Easier to put out if spilt when burning ? From my experience kero isn't safe enough , harder to put out when split ? Metho burns its self out a lot of the time with out damaging to much ?

      @@stormsail I like those kerosene cooker even less , a fire waiting too happen and the oily kerosene , under pressure as well is hard to put out and spreads from every splash and drop burning long enough catch hold and carry-on burning ? Cheers thanks again for your videos and your reply .

    I really like your content. I am concerned about your magnets. They stop working when they get hot. The inside of a stove is not good place for them. They will fail to work for you when you need them most.

      Thank You for the kind comment. Yes the magnet idea isn't going to work. I need to come up with something better. Thanks for watching.
