I liked your video. Could you tell me exactley how many holes the Bushbuddy has in the top and bottom and what size they are? What did you use to put the holes in the one you made? I would like to make my own. Thanks, Paul
@proclaimliberty2000 On the out side 13 1/2 in holes..on inside 18 3/8 in holes. I used a unibit on mine. make sure to use stainless steel wire for grating or you will burn through it often...thanks for watching
Great video. Your own DIY stove isn't too bad. How did you fasten the wire mesh at the bottom of your inner chamber? I drilled many holes in my version. It seems to work very well. Take a look at it when you have a chance.
@MsSpy Hello, I drilled the same amount of holes on either side and just weaved a single wire back and forth and over and under the same wire.Thanks for your comment!
I've been on the fence on plunking down $100 on the Bushbuddy, but videos like this one tells me it's worth it. I haven't found anyone who regretted the purchase in the long run. My DIY Bushbuddy works pretty good, and I've done a lot of burns to hone my fire building skills, so I'm glad I made one.
That was impressive. Thanks.

Good vid, I still think $100+ is a little steep for the Bush Buddy, So the home brewed one still rocks.
