Don't listen to that guy. With the proper tools and experience, I bet you could build this in 15 minutes. I don't believe this is the best design though. You could have some built-in stands for the pot by leaving a lip at the top with holes for exhaust. And how about multiple holes on the bottom sides for air to get pulled into the flame. I realize air is already pulled in from the loader but just wondering if multiple holes would work better because the wood is blocking air input.
@YiuTeub you're probably not going to deteriorate steel with such low heat. At sufficient heat, steel will melt. I'd say this thing will outlive us all!
Do you realize that burning pressure treated wood produces toxic gas ? Looking at the wood you are using there at it appears to be pressure treated.When you burn copper arsenate-treated wood you release harmful doses of arsenic, not something you want to boil water over or sit around and enjoy.
@libzkie i went to your channel,and of course and as usual,the most argumentive on someone elses video never have any videos of thier own on youtube. nothing.zip zilch nada. its nearly always the case.i get these on my channel also. the other day i had someone stop by my chanell to tell me i was using a file wrong. thank God most people on youtube are awesome folks.
I'd be careful with that pressure treated wood scraps. I'm not sure if they still have arsenic in the PT mixture....but I'd stay away from it. Bad juju.
Looks cool though....I'm lookin to build one or two of these myself...."proof of concept" if you will...
Umm, have to point out that the lumber scraps you are using look to be pressure treated, when this type of wood is burned, it gives off extremely toxic gasses and heavy metals. Whole families have been poisoned from this practice, and of course not so good for our enviroment. Pine needles may not be a good choice, but this is far worse.
@libzkie LOL, I think you don't understand what a rocket stove is. This is in fact a rocket stove, just made from tin cans. Suggest you use google and look up the principles.
@libzkie Thank you. I have watched the video a couple of times. A good video and a good man. I think they achieve the same goal, a stove that uses fuel efficiently. I know the plans for the rocket stove I built have been around for a long time. When I showed it to my mother she said, "Oh, a hobo stove."She saw these post WWII. I have also seen rocket stove videos that heat entire houses. I don't really care who "invented" it. I'm just glad the concept can be adapted to help so many people.
@chuckbyf1 What does a rocket stove look like to you? It certainly sounds like a rocket. Have you built a stove? I'd love to see a video of you making what you feel is a rocket stove. That could look really cool.
@chuckbyf1 You are right. It doesn't look like a rocket but when you have it fired up it sure sounds like a rocket. You can design them to look like anything you want. I'd love to see a rocket design from your rocket stove.
Good job. I like it. Your idea with cutting in holes on the sides is good. Leave the top of the can on though, the bottom of your pan will stay alot cleaner.
This has been flagged as spam show
is that green lumber? pressure treated? If so, you should NEVER burn it. Its got enough arsenic to kill you if you breathe enough. just sayin.
cool video though

@libzkie Thanks for your comment. I'd love to see the original design. Can you provide a link?

Doesn't look like much of a rocket stove to me.

@wolfpaw69 Great idea! The top of which can,the soup can or the #10 can? Would you vent it too? How?

@LDSPrepper the top of the #10 can.

I'd say stay away from burning pressure treated wood. Your wood looks a bit "green".
