Ciao Joshua ;-)

I like the new your stove because it has a nice design, almost futuristic, and it is very simple.

But i'm not sure for the fuel appendix supply...

I know not, it seems to me an impediment.

5/5* for you :-)

Thanks, man! Actually, it can operate (well enough to boil 8 oz. of water) with just about 1/4-1/3 oz. of fuel in the body of the burner. I made a cap for the hose nib on the body, so it can operate without the remote fueling system. It is true that the hose is a little bit on the awkward side, but my attempt was to make something similar to Tinny's remoted fueled wick stoves, in which he used a set-up along the same lines. Thanks for the comment! Peace.

Really nice job mate, looks great and what a tune! 5*

Thanks! TR always does good work with his music. Still just an initial prototype, but this was a "good start"! Peace.

Looks awesome!

You sure that's 8 oz in that can? Soda cans have a 4 oz leeway built into all of them.

[TerraFirma369]

You may be right, Tim. I didn't measure it, as it wasn't a boil time test. I know this much, I am pretty sure this stove can handle up to a 24 oz. Heiny pot. I plan to test the simmer/bake setting as well. Thanks for the comment! Peace.

I apologize for misleading you, Joshua. My kitchen measuring instrument deceived me. I used a scientific ally accurate instrument to check my measuring cup.

Oddly my 1/2 cup measurer (holds about 91.7% of that) says the metric equivalent is 125 ml when actually it's 93 ml. Grrrr!

An 8 ounce can does indeed hold 8 oz short of the top. To prove it to myself, I opened a 12 ounce can and found 12 oz goes close to the top without any room for an extra 4 oz.

[TerraFirma369]

No worries, Tim! I am sure this little joker can handle boiling up to 3 cups at a time, as I did that this morning as an off-camera test. With the RFS, it can go for as long as one has fuel, and with the lower temps and fuel consumption, it is VERY fuel efficient. Great for one person, not so great for more. That's why my primary focus is on the Booster. Thanks for the comment! Peace.

I like it!!! What did you use for tubing? It seems you beat me to it again. This is a nice prototype, I am looking forward to your next step in refining this stove. Its small, I am sure it is light weight and looks to be an easy item to stow away.

[TerraFirma369]

Thanks, Drak! As we all know (in the Stovie world), Tinny has moved away from soda and beer cans for his stoves. That's ok, because our packaging of merchandise still offers us a few interesting ways to make designs like this one. The tubing is all silicon. The fuel line tubing is a bit smaller than the heat-shield tubing. The body of the unit, by the way, is made from one of those chapstick-sized Axe Bullet containers. Thanks for the comment, man! Peace.

It looks like a miniature wick Bunsen burner. Very righteous, Joshua! 5*

Thanks, Richard! Always good to hear from you. I hope your day is going well! Peace.
