- Today we look at my tent stove, the Winnerwell Nomad View (small)
Is it the perfect tent stove for the very popular Lavvu? Should you get one?
Hopefully this video will give you all the information you need to make an informed decision
Thanks for watching
Andy x
Excellent video-- clear, succinct, and objective. I'm considering the Winner well, and appreciate your thoughts here. Well done, and thank you.
Thanks buddy. Appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. Hope it helps you make up your mind 👍
At last, a good, no nonsense video about bushcraft equipment. Probably convinced me to buy winnerell over outbacker
Cheers
Hey, thanks for the feedback Philippe. And cheers for watching, I hope whatever decision you make it works well for your needs. Hope to see you again on the channel in my various other gear reviews that are coming soon 💪
Nice stove,, I'm gonna have to find your earlier video about the lavvu, because I don't know what it is, 🤣🤣,, great video btw,,
all the best, John. 😀
Cheers buddy 👌 check out the hot tent video I did and you can see the stove in action inside the Lavvu
Thanks to this vlog I got the Nomad Small No view. I'm not a back packer so weight is not a problem. The price of 269 euros also no big deal, since it holds it value reasonably. I love it that RVS is nearly indestructable and the stove so capable. I added two more pipes to make it more versatile for use with higher tents. Beautiful and funny piece of equipment. Perfect!
Glad it helped mate and thanks for watching
The glass will alway soot up when starting, however I've used many types over the years once fully established crank it up to to get pretty damn hot. The heat will disapate the soot regardless how sotting it gets.
Thanks for the advice man
Thanks for your excellent video pal. I am on the verge of buying one of these but still haven’t decided on the Small or Medium Nomad. I like the extras that you can get on the medium but not sure just how much use I would get out of them. Just one point that I feel is important to make and should be more widely appreciated, that Polish Army poncho tent isn’t a Lavvu. A tent with a single pole could never be described as such as it is a structure made from many sticks and covered over.
So many people call them this and sellers put it in the description but the Lavvu is a very important part of Sami culture and as such should be protected. Rant over but I just hope it helps to stop the growing trend .
I look forward to more of your videos and will endeavour to be less critical in future.
I did not know that mate. Thanks for the knowledge bomb. I’ll mention that for sure in my next video about them. You’re right everyone calls them that and so do the adverts selling them. I hadn’t even considered it might be something else 😊👍 the nomad is a great stove, but I’m not sure how big a medium would be inside the Polish Poncho tent 😉 are you intending to use it in that or in another hot tent? Thanks for checking the video out mate and I hope to see you in the comments of my other videos at some point 💪
Just bought this and with the at-home initial test burn, yes, how did that side window instantly become so blackened? Still really happy with the 'get what you pay for' value, and it will extend my outdoor life an extra couple months at each end.
Thanks for the honest review!
Great review...that stove would have certainly come in handy today...hello from a very wet and blustery Nova Scotia...take care and have a great week...
Nova Scotia!! Wow it always amazes me how people from outside the UK watch my little channel 😊. Thanks very much. I hope the weather improves for you. Have a great week yourself and hope to hear from you again 😊👍
Thank you for you awesome videos man, my lavvu and stove are in their way you have helped me loads and I can't wait to get out in the wood next week, keep up the good work i look forward to your next video 👌👍
What a bloody lovely thing to say. Thanks very much Jay you’ve made my day. Top man 👍 I hope you love your new purchases as much as I do mine. I’m sure they’ll serve you well for many years 💪
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 you are very welcome man 👍 and I'm sure I will, I'm sure they will last a long time, i couldn't afford a Gstove at the moment so i got an Outbacker it was only 130 quid! Seen a few good reviews on it so hopefully it will do the job until I get my Gstove 💪 they seem to be amazing
Cheers from the USA 🇺🇸 mate. Definitely subbing, glad to see a newcomer! I myself have recently been getting into bushcraft, camping, and general outdoors activities. I purchased one of these nomad stoves also, the medium. They are great little stoves! Here's a little advice on maintaining them. Those pipes and the stove body shouldn't be allowed to get to those temperatures. Stainless steel gets red at about 900 F or 460 C. It can warp the stove and the pipe sections which could seriously damage them. Thankfully you have two dampers to control airflow and you can control the burn fairly efficiently if you play around with them. Just a heads up, I'm sure you don't want to damage your stove long term. Also that was creative to use that basket as a makeshift double wall section. If you ever want to upgrade, Winnerwell makes a double wall pipe section that might provide a more secure and tight fit. I love the lavvu setup! I just purchased one myself today actually. Looking forward to using it as a lighter-weight setup. I currently have a Springbar canvas Classic Jack 140 hot tent system. You should look into that, it's a beast of a base camp setup. Not at all a backpacking type setup though. Anyhow, glad to see your content, I'll definitely have to stay tuned!
Hello back to the USA!! It always amazes me when people watch my tiny channel from the other side of the word 😊👍 thanks for the tips mate, it’s the first time I’ve ever used these types of things so don’t really know the ins and outs. I’ll try and keep the temperature down in future if I can, but I don’t recall ever having that much wood in at one time. And I had the air flow fully open (maybe that’s the issue?). Thanks again for taking the time to interact. I love it when people drop in for a chat. And thanks so much for the sub mate 😁
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 Thanks! It’s nice to see fresh content, keep it up!
So the amount of wood and the oxygen feeding it create the high temperatures, plus any accumulated soot on the stove body and pipe sections can burn if it’s thick or resinous. Just something to watch out for, I had a bit of warping on the side of my stove body caused from excessive temperatures and I ended up hammering it back down. The easiest way to avoid this problem is to check for soot levels and clean it regularly, and also cutting back the airflow on both the door baffle and pipe damper when it gets too hot. The temperatures can get high fairly quickly so it’s just something to watch out for. You can buy a little thermometer that attaches to the stove pipe or a temp gun works too, just to get a read on the temperature, and both are relatively inexpensive.
Anyhow looking forward to more videos! Happy camping!
@@MegaDringus that’s a great idea thank you! I’ll get one ordered and a little pipe brush to clear the soot away. Thanks again mate, appreciate you taking the time to help me out 👍💪
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 Obviously you'll know by know, but for the new viewers: manual says 300 degrees Celcius max. Damping on the front would have cooled it down.
Nice thorough review there Andy, I do love the idea of hot tents, may have to try one out before biting the bullet! Thanks for sharing mate, have a good evening
Ash 🏕
Hey Ash, thanks man. It’s a top way to enjoy camping in winter.m that’s for sure. Inside the Lavvu it feels like being at home. The material is so thick and blocks out most noise and virtually all light. Lol. I’d defo recommend trying one. Get one Tigris to send you a Smokey hut tent for review and I’ll bring this along to put in it 😉
Steelman Outdoors now that’s an idea 😁😂 best do a good review of their stove in that case 😂 catch up soon pal
Ash
A good review doesn’t have to mean praising it. But maybe if you want the tent say at least one nice thing huh 🤣
That was funny about the Rubics Cube Chimney! Trying to decide which size. This helps. Thanks!
Glad it helped mate. Cheers for taking the time to comment 💪
Very clear video, looking for a stove for my onetigis iron wall tent. Thanks 👍
My pleasure Dave. Hope it helped you out. Thanks for watching
Balanced review. Thanks.
Cheers for watching 😊👍
I'm so glad you told us about the glowing pipes. My winnerwell is on it's way to me, and I would've completely freaked out if I'd encountered that in my tent. Awesome. Thanks. Great idea with the mesh basket as well, by the way
Thanks for the comment. I’m pleased the info helped someone out there 😊👍
The pipes shouldnt go red it means it's to hot..control with the dampet
Thanks of the info mate
Thank you for showing the stove. Nice video and i like your honest grade putting. I think i will bye one, but without the sidewindow.
Thanks for taking the time to comment mate. I hope you enjoy your purchase if you do buy one. Hope to see you again in the comments soon 💪
Great video and delivery. Really liked the stove.
Thanks Clive for for taking the time to say that, made my day 😊💪 thanks for watching buddy
After watching this video mines on order 👍🏻🇬🇧
Cheers for watching mate. Hope you enjoy your new purchase 💪
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 cheers mate can't wait to get out and try it 👍🏻
It's hella cool AF! Appreciate your review!
🤣🤣👌 thanks dude. And cheers for watching 💪💪
Nice looking stove, but the fact it doesn't pack down flat like my titanium 'Pomoly T1 Mini 3' means I can't take it in my backpack. It also weighs more than double my Pomoly Mini (which is slightly bigger than this Winnerwell).
'It's harder than a Rubik's cube and I can do one of them' 😝Camping gear is like a Tardis but only bigger on the inside before you unpack it. Tip: Always take a pic of the before before you take anything apart. Subscribed cheers.
🤣🤣 thanks Mark. Appreciate you taking the time to comment. That’s a good idea as well mate! Another subscriber did comment saying that apparently the spark but goes inside the main pipe! So no wonder I couldn’t fit it in lol. I haven’t tried it yet though. Cheers for subbing 😊💪
That is a good looking stove, not as shiny as my eagle kettle though 😂
Amazing looking bit of kit 👍🏼👍🏼 thanks for sharing 🙏
Cheers Dean 😁 it was shiny when I first got it. But clearly I should have cleaned it all up before this video 🤣🤣 your kettle would be ace on the top of this. I might get it one day. It looks a cracking piece of kit 👍
Nice review mate. Helpful, been looking at them a while now.
Cheers my man. Hope it helps make a decision for you 👍
I could put one in the garden shed and dream it's a log cabin. Take care mate. 😎🐺☮️👍
That wouldn’t be a bad idea actually!! 😊👍 as long as you can exit the pipe out of the side or roof it would work a treat. I think they actually do angled bits of the pipe as well 😁
Good man bro!!! Was looking forward to you pushing out another video
Cheers Ian. Not massive adventure here though mate, just a quick look at one of my bits of gear. As soon as lockdown is over I’m hoping to get out somewhere and will make sure to take the camera 😊 thanks for watching pal 👍
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 also, I just realised I didn’t see your last video. Again with that RUclips algorithm not showing me...I checked the aul spam folder too!
It’s clear RUclips is trying to bring me down 🤣 well at least now you have two to watch mate 😁👍
Interesting review, I have been thinking of a medium to large stove for my heating needs
I’d say if you want to heat more than a 2 man tent then the medium would be a better shout. And if you don’t mind the extra weight or size I’m sure the large would be sufficient for very large tents. Good luck with your purchase. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment 💪
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 Steelman, I'm wanting to heat a 4m diameter bell tent. But I'm not wanting it to be anything over around 21 degrees (that would be too snuggly for me!). Do you think this will do, or will the medium be a better shout? This one seems nicely compact.
@@rosshind6369 honestly I am not sure mate, and wouldn’t want to give you the wrong advice 🙈
Great review Andy and a great bit of kit 👍. I really like the idea of hot tenting but if I buy anymore kit this year I'll be right in the doghouse 🤣. Well at least the stove will keep me warm 🤣🤣. Atb, J 👍
🤣🤣 hehe I know what you mean mate. I’ve had to curb my spending lately so haven’t bought any new gear for a while. I bought this in the summertime when I got a work bonus so managed to get away with it with the Mrs 🤣 cheers for watching as always pal
Just bought this stove hot tented last week in one tigris iron wall video on my channel love it
Cool man. I’ll have to check it out 👍
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 were are you in the uk
Use a scraper with a long handle to clean the glass it works for me ☮️
Cheers buddy👍 and thanks for watching
Would the choice of wood help reduce the soot issue on the windows? Great review.
Thanks mate. Yes I think you’re right. The door is basically inefficient burn of the wood so choice of wood might help, and also placement within the stove 👍
Good point avoiding resins by removing bark and using hardwoods should help lots.
All good tips that I’ll try and implement in future. Thanks for watching Mark 💪😊
Well I think I'll have to save up for one of them bud nice👍🖤
They are pretty decent bits of kit mate 😊👍
I bought the Medium size Nomad recently. I'm led to believe, by RUclips, that the soot on the glass is a sign of burning unseasoned or soft wood. Oh, and bark. Don't burn bark in it.
Yeah I read that too mate. But the wood I used was dry kindling bought from a store so couldn’t have been much dryer 🤷🏼♂️ I did also read that perhaps it was because the brim wasn’t hot enough. So next time I’ll try it but put the wood more to the other side and see if that helps. Thanks for commenting and I hope you enjoy your new purchase 👍
I read elsewhere that if you burn a hotter fire initially and damp the fire correctly, it will burn off the soot and leave a good view for the rest of the evening. I don't have personal experience.
Some other commenters have said that too mate. But if you watch my channel you’ll realise I really don’t have a clue about most things, I’m just winging it 😂 cheers for watching
yes i got the big one of them its 15 kg .but i like to go camping in norway so need a stove that will keep the fire in all night as it gets to - 30 to 35 c . but yes they are very good stoves good old USA
They are awesome bits of kit aren’t they. I haven’t used mine for a good while. I have neglected my channel for a while now 😬 been busy with other hobbies
Great review, Buddy. It's a cool bit of kit and would make anyone with a smaller hot tent very happy. AND the price is a little high BUT.. think of it like this. This thing will last forever and you could pass it down to your kids and grandkids. Making it an heirloom. You see a lot of people with Granddad's old ax or Colman stove. Why not granddad's old winnerwell stove? This would be a very cool piece of kit for the avid winter camper.
Hey Tiny. Yeah you’re right I never thought of that. With careful handling this thing will outlast me for sure, so one day when I have grandchildren (I’m clearly too young and handsome right now😆) that’ll be a cool thing to do with them and then pass it down the family. Great idea mate. Thanks for watching and commenting. I hope you and the family are well 😊👍
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 We're good I hope your family is good as well. And yeah I hope there are many years between you and being a granddad...lol
@@TINYNumismatics 🤣🤣 well it’s technically possible. My step son is 22 now and my eldest daughter is 16 🥺 where does the time go mate 🤷🏼♂️
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 OMG you'll be a granddad before ya know it....lol
But in my head I’m still 18 🤣🤣
It's cool AF 😎 may a ask if you did the video after our chat the other day or is this a massive coincidence? Massively helpful mate as I'm still toying between the two smaller ones and the one on big legs.
I wonder what your neighbours think haha
Thanks for sharing Andy 🍻
Atb
It certainly is mate. I’ve been meaning to do it for ages but just didn’t have the time. I was supposed to do it the day after my last video. So in the end thought sod it, I’ll just take it out front and do it, instead of travelling 20 mins to the woods I usually go to. I did think of you whilst making it, wondering if you’d purchased one yet 😊 so hope that’s helpful too you
Yeah most of my neighbours must think I’m nuts. And whilst filming the Amazon driver came to deliver a parcel 🤣🤣 I got some funny looks
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 still not made a decision mate yet mate but this is looking like a contender.
I think I caught a glimpse of the amazon driver now you mention it haha or maybe just a neighbour.
The Cool AF was all I needed to know haha
@@TheCheshireWanderer yeah that was a neighbour walking the dog lol. The Amazon driver came after that 🤣🤣
You've been talking about the Winnerwell for ages and you're clearly chuffed with it! As such it's easily worth £300. My philosophy is if it's going to make you happy then it's totally worth it. Love the ending with the Rubics cube. I'll have to learn that party trick off you one day! J
You’re right as always mate! Lol that’s why I buy all my gear. It totally makes me happy 😃 the Rubix cube isn’t a trick mate, I spent an entire weekend on RUclips learning it a few years back. Sad I know. But it ended up paying dividends. I did a presentation at work about continuous improvement and process steps and used the rubix cube to sell mans journey through efficiency and A.I. and I got £100 in reward points for that. 😆 literally cash back on that time invested 👍
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 That's cool....geek cool 🤓. Btw yesterday I gathered some birch bark like you showed me and lit the bushbox. I was amazed how flammable the bark was! 🔥👍
🙌🙌🙌 yes mate!! Get in. I’m so pleased that something I learned has been transferred and is now helping someone else. How awesome, it was one of the reasons I started my channel. Just to learn new skills and share them to others when I do. Birch bark is gold dust in the bushcraft world. So useful. The tree has a few other uses as well which I’ll share with you one day
Oh...And the geeks shall inherit the earth 😋🤫
@@My24hradventure hold up.... bushbox? Have you made a new purchase or just using the name to describe your wood stove? 🤔
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 Yes totally credit to you for what you taught me. The truth is I'd been putting off learning he whole fire thing. I think due to a few early failures and frustrations. But after yesterday's success - of course with reference to what you showed me - it's really 'ignited' my enthusiasm. A new ferro rod is on it's way from Amazon!
Looking at this stove as in winter can haul a sled but titanium is nice on the fence about it as with work don’t get lot of time to hot tent camp
If weights not an issue then I’m sure it’ll do you proud. It’s a solid bit of kit. I’d probably save a bit more money and get the non window version as it’s a bit of a nightmare to keep clean. Titanium tends to be higher priced too. Thanks for watching and whatever you choose good luck 💪
I have buy it only for my Lavvu and I think I like it too;-))))
Good lad Henry 👍
Great content always atb 🐾
Cheers dude 😊 the pleasure is all mine
you don't need to clean the window, once you get the stove hot enough the black burns away. I have the medium and after around an hour the glass is clear.
Cheers for the info. I had mine biting for a few hours and it didn’t clear. Maybe it’s because it’s smaller and less heat 🤷🏼♂️
Great review! I have the fast fold oven and am considering which model of the nomad series to buy. 👍😊🌻
Thank you Helen glad it was useful to you ☺️
the fire box needs to burn very dry wood....my home stove did the same but its a learning curve....now my home stove is always clean glass. nice review
Thanks for the tip mate. And cheers for watching ☺️💪
Lovely bit of kit mate. Quite jealous I don’t own one tbh! I’v seen some recently that fold down to not much at all but probably nowhere near as robust as this one.
Hope you’re keeping sane mate 👍🏼
Cheers bro. Yeah the titanium fastfold ones do fold flat and are only a couple of kilos all in. I did look at that too, but honestly I’d prefer the extra weight and robustness. I’ll only ever use it for camping and close to car wildcamps so the weight isn’t an issue to me. It might provide some good warmth in a cave 🤔
Just about sane mate. Only a few weeks out from lockdown (hopefully) ending and we can set something up
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 I reckon it would work well in a cave but you may need to get some sort of bend to point the chimney out. You don’t want smoke in the cave.
Defo mate! Lets have a chat soon and get some dates pencilled in.
@@JRPOutdoors I believe they do do an elbow type section actually 😉
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 Then problem solved 😎
Nice wee review, looks like a decent stove if you want to invest in good quality kit.
Thanks for watching 😊👍 it is a cracker and will last a lifetime I’m sure
Hello I have just received my Winnerwell nomad small, whitout the glass side and I really like it. All the chimney parts nest in to it nicely and tightly, but I took a photo before I took them out at the start, just in case...!
I never managed to do one bloody side of a rubik's cube, much to complicated for a simple mind like me. And perhaps the nesting of the pipes in the stove is to simple for you and that's why you can't get them all in ? 🤣👍🏻
Hey mate. Awesome that you have a winnerwell they are really cool aren’t they. I hope you get some good use out of it in the future. Someone mentioned in the comments that the spark arrestor fits inside one of the pipes? Is this the case with yours? Perhaps you could send me a picture on Instagram to show me how they all fit it 🤣🤣
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 I don't have Instagram niver Facebook. The pipes all fit side by side nicely in the stove, none of them slides in to another. The spark arestor is shorter then the over pipes, it must be side by side underneath whith the airflow controller. When I put the pipes in, I put the stove upwards and the grate goes on the inside top of the stove. It's much, much more simple then the rubik's cube I'm sure you will be able to get it all the pipes in!
I have faith in you ! 😁👍🏻
@@973Marcelino 🤣🤣 that’s pressure. I’ll give it a go then 😋
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 😂😂😂😂😂👍🏻
Hey is this stove heat up enough for maybe a 10 person arctic tent?
Nice stove mate its definitely a lot to pay out I've been thinking about getting the stove that folds up around the same price the one I have at the moment is massive and heavy atvb jimmy 😎😎
Yeah it is mate, but I think it’s worth it in the end. The titanium fast fold ones do look good but not as aesthetic 😎 cheers for watching Jimmy 😊👍
That spark catcher part goes inside of the flume pipes so you should not have to put it in the bag pouch :)
Thanks man 😁💪🏻
Hallo.hello sir. I have enjoy your video. Thanks bro. Greets from a Dutch.

don,t get me wrong ,that stove looks and works great for a small tent in not to cold temp,,,but for me in the canadian north useing a snowtrekker 10x13 and may be in as cold as -20 to -30 with the wind chill that stove is to small for me,,,

Thanks buddy. Good luck with your purchase I hope you enjoy it 😊👍 cheers for watching and commenting
Just a thought, the basket to protect the tent, could you not use a stove jack. Silicone . Which might make it more water proof, on the hot exhaust pipe work.
Is the pipe work glowing because the baffle flap is closed to much, cannot wait till you do a roast with red wine and trimmings
Yes you could absolutely use a stove jack. There’s a video of Simone a Bloke in the woods that made his own and used Velcro to attach it to the Lavvu I just went for the easy option lol it was raining pretty hard and virtually no rain came through. I had the flap fully open so I don’t think that could have been the cause. I think it was just the sheer heat. Or maybe it was too hot because it was fully opening, and dampening it down would reduce the heat? 🤷🏼♂️
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 wow that was some heat on pipe if it was fully opened, like you said you were roasting in the tent ☃️
I was indeed 🤣🤣🤣
small is appealing but.... thing that concerns me is stories of stoves with small pipes getting flammable build ups in pipes quicker.
Did you find this was too small to keep burning fir a decent length of time? Thanks
The spark arrestor should nest inside a pipe. It does on my Nomad Large.
I can’t believe I hadn’t thought of that 🤣🤣 thanks mate I’ll give that a go 👍
Great honest review mate.
I too have been toying for a while now and can't make up my mind between pomoly and winnerwell.
Thanks buddy. I’m guessing either one will be a great buy which will last you for many years 😊👍
@@steelmanoutdoors4479 the Mrs just ordered it for my Christmas 🎄, the one without the viewing window
Awesome mate. I hope you enjoy the new purchase. You’ve got a lovely Mrs there, keep hold of her 😂
thanks man.
Pleasure dude 💪
I can’t believe that so many people buy this stove without the view. Better heat radiation out of the glass, and it’s not even common to for the glass to break which is often the reason that people give for passing on the View…and even if it does break so what just buy a couple replacements in their accessories section, problem solved. Furthermore the View is just a better visual experience than not being able to enjoy watching the fire from each side.
Agreed mate. I bought it because I really wanted to see the fire in action and it doesn’t disappoint in that respect 👌
Great video 👍. Just wondering after seeing the stove pipe red hot. Won't the heat from the red hot pipe turn the lavvu into char cloth behind the stove? Just wondering!
Hey Kenneth, thanks for watching mate. I did check the canvas periodically to see if it got hot at all, and can say that once the utensil strainer was on it, it was absolutely fine. I’m not concerned about using it at all 😊 thanks for dropping by and commenting mate
Really helpful review, thanks. Did the fire keep burning throught the nite when you used it?
Thanks mate. Glad it was useful. No I purposely let it go out before I went sleep just incase of any mishaps lol 😂 I don’t think it could hold enough wood to last a full night either tbh. You’d probably have to top it up every few hours
just got my small, looking forward to using it, i'll buy a big bean tin and just leave it on top to make hot water, rather save $$$ to get some thing else.....lets face it, we leave it hot most of the time we need hot water,....$2 bean tin....eash
FIRE IT HOTTER to deal with less soot, if stove, et al; can handle it.
Thanks for the suggestion buddy. I’ll give that a go 😊👍
Does the soot that build up on the glass burn of when the stove is running at full temp.
Hey Mark. It hasn’t in my experience but maybe I’m doing something wrong😂 thanks for taking the time to comment 😊👍
Regardless of price, what in your opinion is the very best?
Hey mate. I’ve not really had a chance to test any other than the one I own. But originally I was looking at a G Stove. They look excellent bits of kit. And if money was no issue I’d probably opt for titanium to save on weight 👍
Nice looking stove mate. Ideal size for the lavvu. I have a frontier stove but it is a bit big in the lavvu. Stay safe and all the best. Ian.
Hi Ian. Thanks for watching mate, the frontier stoves do look pretty good as well. I think the legs are a tad higher though aren’t they?
Yeah legs a bit higher alright. Was tempted to cut them down but then the height would not be as handy for cooking on. Might see about making a second set of smaller ones that can be changed over.
Remember buy cheap , buy twice !! If you are using the bike routes around the woodlands, could you not use a little fold up trolley to help take to the site you will set up camp. I know you won’t be able to use if walking off walkways.
If you break any thing on your stove let’s us know , and I will get it welded up for you ,but you should be ok.
That’s right mate. I know this will let me a lifetime. The trolley idea could be a good shout in the spring time. But the muddy trails might make it hard work in winter. Cheers for the offer of fixing it if it breaks pal, appreciate that 👍 hope you’re well buddy
Thanks for the video. Does the top of the stove come off so that it could be used as a firepit ?
No I don’t think so, pretty sure it’s welded on and only the circle hatch opens at the top so that you can cook on an open flame 🔥 I’ll check for sure next time I use it though
Nice stove! Is there 90° sections for the flu pipe? I need to vent through the wall not the roof.
Cheers Dan! I can’t see one for the small stove on the website but you can get one for the medium stove which has a 2.5” pipe. www.canvastentshop.co.uk/90-degree-pipe-2-5.html

What are the metal flaps on the spark arrestor for? Thanks Steelman, great video
Thanks Ross😊. I believe they are guide line points so you can stabilise the chimney in windy conditions
