- This is a video that has pretty much everything you need to know about pop-pop boats, everything from how to get them going to how to finish using them.
I have also included a short clip at the end that shows you how to use them with Oil.
If you want to attempt to make one yourself, this is the tutorial that I used to make one (the one that I made did not work as well as the ones that are in the video, I got those off eBay).

I'm 45 years old and just this morning have heard of these.
My right leg was crushed and put back together with plates , rods , bolts. Also several back surgeries. The point of the medical history is that now I spend lots of time soaking in hot water for relief. These lill boats would be great entertainment for an old cripple to play with while in the tub. I realize they're made for kids ,but so are motor scooters and women's boobs but men still love playing with them as well.
True.
Great attitude! Hope all is well with you....
I'm sorry for you...
What a comment damn.😍😍😍
Wish u recovery
Anyone else thinking of Ponyo?
Yes
Yea i am not the only one know this yes
Didn‘t take a second until I had Ponyo in my mind 😄 one of our family favorites next to Totoro, Princess Mononoke and all the other great ones 😄
That’s why I came here, haha
That’s how I got here I searched up how to candle boats work
A toy that brought a lot of excitement in the childhood. :) It's still very exciting to see it moving that fast while powered by such a small source of energy.
Thanks for sharing.
2:06 MADE IN INDIA!! it put a big smile on my face.
My uncle bought these for my brother's and I from Lee Valley tools 25 years ago best Christmas gift ever!
Those things have been around for a long time. The ones I saw as a kid were smaller. Thanks for sharing that.
what a throwback, had a red one years ago🥺
This is by far the most coolest toy! this is something that you can share with your sons or daughters and actually have fun with. thank you very much for sharing.
Awesome! Good to see physics at work!
1.49:: made in india!! it used to sell for Rs5.00 25yrs ago
Still available for 75 at a fair... Get it for less if u bargain.
Yes very nostalgic we get from 5 rupees
Bhai aap abi bhi bhejte i want it
SAMAY BADAM ohh bro I get one from eBay for my son 😂😂
It would be way less expensive to build one out of a soda can or two. Plus, you can truly say it is yours.
Loved these as a kid, I built mine and ran them on kerosene for a more supercharged effect.
Kieran Bull xD you must of had a crazy childhood
I bet you were the same kinda kid who put a bunch of match heads in a nail sized hole and hit a nail into them. They always made that uber- loud gunshot sound haha
Yeah
Last summer I got the brilliant idea to make a gun with some copper tubing, a clothespin and some wood. Spent a lot of time, months making it. And I used match heads as ammo and almost blew my head off but I was ok 😂
I wish we played with toys like this when I was younger, I found my grandfathers from about 1919, and it still works perfectly :D
I remember when I used to play with it all the time. Thanks for making the video and bringing back the old memories. Going to India in a month and gnna buy some aha for literally 50 cents.
I have never heard of this before in my entire life! What!? It's so stupid, simple, cool! It's amazing! I love it. I can't believe I didn't do this when I was a kid...🤗
🤗🤗🤗. Its just the best.
JEEZ you can never be bored with all these vids!
Its leading me towards my childhood days ^_^ ..used to play with pop pop boats of several colors :))
Nothing better than sailing a pop-pop boat in the chocolate river :3
Also, when you dry the exhaust system, would it be worth shoving a pipe cleaner type thing down to try and dry it a little better? To stop the rusting maybe.
Thank you SO much for your video. It helped us relive our childhood. =)
i use to buy these back at home in INDIA for less than 5 cents a peice...candles included :P
saw the tag ......its poor mans toy..and i love it!!
im addicted to these things they are truly epic just bought myself 2 of them planning on making a few also more people need to know about these
Dude you rock!!!!!! I loved them after this vid and got my dad to buy me one!!! I subscribed rated 5 stars and everything I can do to help your vid thanks again!!!!!!!!! You rock!!!! I am getting a boat just like your green one but blue and an eye dropper with 3 candles and candle holder and some wick and I watched your other video and now I know how to make the candles! Dude your awsome!!!!!!!
I like it, because it uses steam and because it is so very simple.And simple is always good.Someone should build a life size one!
+LineoLemon Ehh, compared to other fuels, steam is very costly and not that efficient. Water has a property that makes it able to absorb alot of heat before transitioning to a new state of matter. ie it takes more energy to heat up water by 1 degree than it takes to heat up alcohol by the same amount. But on the other side water is a good insulator!
Stephen Fabiano
Atomic plants use steam to power turbines, which then produce electricity.
Do you know in which way they create the steam? One of the most common of nuclear reactors is the Light Water Reactors (LWR) which *solely* relies on a constant flow of water to absorb the massive amounts of heat that fission produces. (which backs up the point of why water is a good insulator) This water turns to steam and then instead of wasting potential energy they run the steam through turbines to make the whole process more efficient. They dont use steam because they prefer it, they choose it cause its a free bi-product But you had a good notion, not many people know things like that. I'll provide a citation just in case you wanna look into it.
ieer.org/resource/factsheets/types-of-nuclear-reactors/
But for these type of projects i think steam is fucking awesome. I was only talking practical efficiency lol. I'm in the process of making one of these too, just need to make a boiler.
When i was 4-6 years old there alot people who sell this even they sell the model that have turret that actuly working but now is xtreme rare i love old days
I love making these with soda cans! so much fun :D
my pop pop boat gets here tomarrow or friday! you rock!
dude this is so cool I was just randomly searching vids and found this and as soon as I saw your vid I was like I have to get some. where and how much
I use a little blob of Sterno on my pop-pop. Works nicely and with no wick.
@seterry actually its by the water expanding to steam that cause the popping sound
it work by the water droplets in the boiler and when it boils, it begins to fill with steam and makes the steam release through the pipe.
@iammuthu0 no i have one its because of the metal expanding and contracting because of the pressure of the steam. the boilers are so thin on the top layer for that reason so when it expands cause of the pressure it drags water inside the boiler. make the same noise when you push a dent in a can and then pop it out. you know that sound that annoys everyone
@mahela1993
Well the boiler is made from a soda can. It's just a bunch of folds, glue, and bendy straws. then you just put it on a homemade boat.
just a thought!, fuel wise have you tried alcohol gel or a piece of esbit tab :)x
I have made it three year ago, it runs. And today in class 11 th iam making it as my school project I have deep afection with small motor and pop pop boats ⛵
Speed and voice is awesome
if you were a kid with no tv, no phone, no computer, nor internet to watch this video, surely this boat would be fascinating.
nothing surprises today.
@krdlll they both lead into the boiler whitch is hollow it's like 2 tubes that go into a closed furnise if you blow in one realy hard where's it gunna go? Out the other tube.
Those pop pop boats are funny as hxll! Never seen one until now!
@KneeGrow214 You just made me wonder about that. how much material will be needed to create one about 12 feet long and 6 feet wide.
no, I do not sell them, but if you look for my other pop-pop boat video I have a link to the eBay store I got them from.
With the olive oil do you have to dip the wick in wax like the candles? And where do you get wick? Besides candles.
do u use your jet flame lighter to light the candles if u did it would be pretty cool
You need to use round pot to get complete circular motion
ahhahaha- thats what the hawker uses
thats so cool! does it kep on running til the candle goes out or it runs out of water?
I got mine from eBay, watch my other pop-pop boat video and look in the description for a link to the eBay store.
Really a great little VERY helpful video. Thank you.
A good trick when using olive oil: Wipe the underside of the boiler and the top with dish soap. That will enable you to wash the soot off easily.
Which one of these boats do you think is the fastest also where did you buy them.
So what would happen if you set them off in a hot bath? would they still work?
Yes they will work in hot water though close to boiling would cause a problem as the steam made by the boat has to condense to continue the cycle.
Roger. Actually there is quite a lot more to know about pop pop boats than what is in this video, particularly if you want to build one that is fast, dependable and will not easily break.
Daryl Foster Yea about the hot water thing... I though it might have some trouble.. You should post videos of near-boiling water and of near freezing water! that would be cool
dude, this is pretty slick. how long do they normally go for?
It sucks up water and then the candle heats up the water in the boiler witch makes it turn to steam, so that forces the water out the tubes witch propels the boat forwards, then the steam cools down and turns back into water and sucks more water into the boiler and it happens over and over again.
I have never come across these things before, but they are awesome! Gonna see if I can get one on ebay ;-)
@DuctTapeMaker ebay its in the description of one of his other videos about pop pop boats
which brand last longest on contnuous running and how many hours roughly ?
This is the first time I've seen something like this. Pretty cool. =)
great tutorial for beginers like me!! I am wondering if a single channel proportional radio control and servo is installed for the rudder,,, in a bigger pool a small race seems to be great fun !!!
Hello! Where did you get these boats? I see on the under side of green boat it says Made In India. Please let me know, thank you.
this is kind of a weird question... but what font do you use for the title of the vid? it looks nice
Hello I'm from Holland. I did exacte the same as you did. My boat doesn't go that fast as your's do you maybe know what's wrong?? My boat is a robin steamboat (flying fish)
awesome!
not trying to sound corny or anything but you are amazing! i watched your knot videos and did some of em, i made the duct tape wallet and fireball! and now all my friends want wallets like mine and i sent em links to your page =]
@kellyboilin I know but the ones you make are hard to make and they don't have a candle holder or anything I just want to have the fun of setting it up and watching it zoom around with my dad
@timjameson88 that depends on your wick, it will run as long as the fire lasts
I thought about that but the problem is, is that you would never be able to heat up the water in the boiler fast enough for it to flash to steam.
hey can u tell me where u can buy those cuz i have noooo idea where to get 1
how do you make the tin engine cause i dont wont one with straws
@tangofizz77 might be a bit big. could trim the wax off though.
how do you get back the boat if it gets out to far at a lake or pond
I have one with the exact same hull except the lid is tugboat style.
Someone needs to scale these up 😂 like *colinfurze*
Prolific Invention seriously though
Like ponyo
Well done!
Can u use pipe cleaners to clean the inside
@boomerangfreak that's the metal expanding and contracting.
Where did you buy the one with the rudder?
Is the rudder effective in keeping the boats on course over (relatively) long distances or is it just for looks?
What's the boiler made of ?
Heey i just did buy my first pop-pop boat ! ;) i hope it son come ! ;)
how did you make the candel holder
What do u recommend a candle or oil and wick
i wonder what i you heat that "boiler" with jet flame?
can i use the "engine" to pump water?
I use a small magnet on the underside of the lip at the back of the boat, keeps the candle holder from shifting :-)
steve thornton how he just showing us how they work😂
so it stops when theres no more string left or the fire is put out
ive never heard of these before? are they commercial or you made em?
that would be cool if you could like make it remote controlled turning like have a small motor on the rutter and like have a controller
They last as long as the candle dose, so if you have more candles you can run the constantly for hours.
can anyone tell me anythingELSE OR WHERE i could use/find the tubing, i need to build one of these for a school project
and I did see that vid on where you put food coloring in the boat
how long does the boat last
the boat looked like a .......DRIFT KING!
Have you tried Jiffy Firelighters, that have no Kerosene, and a blazing fire first time, every time.
Why is everyone spamming. They look cool. I love the idea of a working steam boat.
is it bad if it sinks like to the boiler
Thanks for sharing. 😉👌🏼
After one time fill water how much time it run
how did you make that green pop pop boat it looks awesome
how long can a candle of thoose last?
I was only 16 when I made this video and I was working 4 days a week.
whats in the top of the boiler part?
DO YOU EVER HAVE TO REPLACE THE BOILER?
were can i get a boat like that please tell me
