“CQ, CQ, CQ” ! I grew up hearing my dad make that call on his home made ham radios. Kindred spirits all around the world! Nice work Mr. De Leonardo, thank you.
Silvio ! Excellent video, great added value to the already great video of Tetkoba... and I can't resist to tell you your delicious Italian accent makes it a pleasure to watch ;-)
Just rewatched the video, and I see that I misinterpreted what you were saying, sorry for my previous question, can't wait to give the stove a go😊 . Benedek
Absolutely a great video, very smooth and awesome, you should be a teacher somewhere, the stove looks to be a great design, I will attempt to make one of these soon. Great job very kind sir, and I thank you for an above the top project and video.
hello Silvio greetings from Malaysia! Your instruction is really great and help me to understand the whole process of construction. You are very patient and take the trouble to explain properly step by step.Good job! Maybe you could try to make the"RSR" pot stand/windshield and share your experience with us. Thank you for sharing.
Hello Ikansusu the type of burner here explained is a side burner and does not need a pot stand. The reason it is made from a 57mm dia can is for stability reasons. You can look on my channel for a burn test of this stove. Thanks for your comments.
Thank you Sylvio. You make not only functional but also elegantly made stoves. I have made several alcohol stoves from aluminum cans but i prefer to go to resale shops to harvest aluminum drinking bottles to make mine now. I like that they have much thicker wall and are more durable. Harder to cut of course. Is there any reason you drill your gas jet holes after you assemble the stove? I like to drill my gas jet holes before i press my two parts of the stove together. This way i can sand and remove any burrs from outside and inside. Thanks for your video. It is always fun to see a real craftsman at work.
Great video Silvio, I'm just wondering how many ml dose that particular red bull can hold, I don't think you've mentioned it, sorry if you have 😅? Benedek
Hey Silvio, just wondering if you have the time, could you please explain to me how this stove works. So when I cover up the top of this stove with my pot, I would have thought that there wouldn't be enough oxygen entering middle of the stove?
Hi Silvio, I'm very impressed with your craftsmanship and patience in creating these stoves. Can I buy some readymade from you?Thanks and compliments,Marianne
Thank you Silvio for making a very instructional video. You not only made a functional stove you made it beautiful by polishing. Are you from Italy? Your accent reminds me of my grandfather who came to America from Calabria in Southern Italy. Perhaps you are not from Calabria as they say people from there are " Cappo Tosto ". ( you do not seem thick headed ...haha )
Tetkoba's capillary stove is a center burner, you built a side burner. They both are good stoves though. A center burner is good for small pots, the side burner is good for larger pots. I'd like to see the difference in burn-time between the two, which one lasts longer and boils faster.
Hi comfortouch here I am describing another method of the capillary hoop stove which can be manufactured with more ease of construction, also the side burner does not need a pot stand. My version here is made with a slightly larger can (57mm) this makes it more stable for the pot, as far as burning time is concerned it may take a little less than Tetkoba's as it has more jets hence a larger flame.
I use steel wool, try to do it when the can is still full with soda so that the pressure inside will make it more stiff. After cleaning with steel wool you can open and drink the soda. You can see me using steel wool at 16:36 in the video.
I cannot tell where the dividing tool was bought from as I don't know. I inherited some tools that my late father had and it was with them. Thanks for your comment.
wah...that is very interesting...i'd tried the tetkoba technique but the result is not as good as i thought n i figure out maybe some leaks occur n i thought of using jb weld also...
Thanks for your comment. This version of the hoop stove being a side burner I used a slightly bigger can so that you can place your pot directly on it and be more stable. I also made a hoop side burner from the large beer can (67 mm) for the reason of stability and no need for pot stand. I will make a burn test with the two versions.
Yes I know there is a little bit more work in making this stove but the preheat time is is only 10 seconds and not 1 1/2 min like the standard. also the fuel efficiency is around 25% better also.
+Alan McKay I was intrigued by that tool also. That tool was kind of tough to locate because I had no clue as to what it's called, but through some searching: It's called a "Ten Point Spacing Divider" at www.starpath.com/catalog/accessories/1857.htm And at Amazon it's listed as: Weems & Plath Marine Navigation 10 Point Divider (6 inch) They're expensive though...
Silvio, I am a bit confused by the dimensions you indicate in the video. You say the creased capillary can is 28 mm and the inner top can is 12 mm. This adds up to 40 mm. Your outer can in 57 mm (or 56) tall. That would make it 16 or 17 mm taller. However, you said that it was just 6 mm taller. Then you cut off 2 mm, but that is still 14 or 15 mm taller, not 4 mm. Also, why did you not just cut the outer base can to the correct height rather than having to cut it with scissors?

I am sorry to say but don't have any of that type of alcohol and I don't know how it burns in it. I am using methylated spirit and it works fine for me.
The l One I also like electronics and home construction, i am also a radio amature but I don't practice anymore. I am focusing in making a 12 vdc to 220 volt ac inverter. I am just looking around on the net to get some ideas until i build mine, Its rather something else to do in my free time. If I be successful I will publish a video here on you tube.

Another excellent tutorial Silvio. I now use this method myself instead of the rim cut for the hoop corn a better seal.
I have seen many stoves on youtube bt your design is the one I am going to make, thanks for the video
ukipodder Take a look also at tetkoba's universal alcohol stove to get more ideas how to get along in manufacturing the stove; good luck.
Silvio De Leonardo thanks I will, its amazing what you can make from an old can...
Thank you so much for sharing this, subscribed and looking forward to reviewing your other films on stoves.

holy crap! 13:48 dividing tool! fantastic!!!
Silvio, do you ever sell any of your stoves. Your craftmanship is impressive. Thanks for the tutorial.
Hi Silvio, I'm very impressed with your craftsmanship and patience in creating these stoves. Can I buy some readymade from you?Thanks and compliments,Marianne
I am sorry to say but I don,t sell. You can buy them ready made from e-bay. There are various brands that you can choose from. Regards, Silvio
Ok, I'll check Ebay or try build one myself.
Regards, Marianne
Good luck and happy stoving.... By the way you can opt my technique and do it with the jets on the inside as well.

No my friend I am from Malta the small island just below Sicily. I don't believe I am thick headed either ha ha.

Complimenti Silvio!Ora provo a farlo come si deve.
Excellent instructions!
Nice vid... would have been nice to see it functionning...
You can see the burn test here
ruclips.net/video/Is7ZqSEHb-c/видео.html
I will make a burn test soon with this stove ( 57 mm dia.) and also with the 67 mm version.
Could you please let me know what did you use to remove outside layer and make it shine like that. Thank you.
I use steel wool, try to do it when the can is still full with soda so that the pressure inside will make it more stiff. After cleaning with steel wool you can open and drink the soda. You can see me using steel wool at 16:36 in the video.
Hola gracias por compartir y mostrar, el video hecho con cuidado al detalle,gracias y saludos Manuel de Venezuela...
thank you for the grat video. do you know if this will burn isopropyl alcohol cleanly?
I cannot tell where the dividing tool was bought from as I don't know. I inherited some tools that my late father had and it was with them. Thanks for your comment.
wah...that is very interesting...i'd tried the tetkoba technique but the result is not as good as i thought n i figure out maybe some leaks occur n i thought of using jb weld also...
where do you buy your dividing tool?
Grande!!!
Allora esistono altri italiani che seguono tetkoba!!!! :D
più di qualcuno direi :D
what is the temperature the JB Weld can withstand? Is it 550F?
thanks for your comment

Good video Silvio
Wow, where did you get that tool that shows up at 13:50!?! What is it called?
+Alan McKay I was intrigued by that tool also. That tool was kind of tough to locate because I had no clue as to what it's called, but through some searching:
It's called a "Ten Point Spacing Divider" at www.starpath.com/catalog/accessories/1857.htm
And at Amazon it's listed as: Weems & Plath Marine Navigation 10 Point Divider (6 inch)
They're expensive though...
Great Job Silvio :o)
lol nice mirror finishing ,,how about you show it in action?
You can find the burn test here

Also, why did you not just cut the outer base can to the correct height rather than having to cut it with scissors?
Steven Varner There must have been a mistake in the dimension of the inner cup as this must have been 38 mm and not 28 mm. Thanks for pointing it out.
No worries mate. :D
May I ask what can you used? I see it is 57 mm dia....is it an a=b dimension can?
Well dimensions are not so critical and can vary a little bit
Thank you.
excellent job:)

Grazie... very nice...
Where do u live right now Silvio
In Malta island
Wow beutiful place to live by the way do you like origami
Silvio De Leonardo Yes I do like origami I like more to watch rather than making them
I've done both its cool how were kind of alike
The l One I also like electronics and home construction, i am also a radio amature but I don't practice anymore.
