It takes 6 times as much air to BURN the Woodgas as to make it, so area of top holes should reflect this ratio. Tom Reed, inventor of Woodgas stoves about 1985.
a little tip i found out while experimenting, when you drill the holes into your can, dont drill them all the way through, start drilling until you start to get a hole, then tap the hole out. this way the hole is sort of like a cone shape, this way it directs more air in more effectively
@STREETRAT211 it looks like the 3rd tin is a pot stand. he turned the mushy corn tin up side down and put wires through to give it 4 points to rest on top of the stove and give a small gap. it also functions to direct the flame in a circle pattern which will evenly destribute the heat around the bottom of a pot or pan. he made the statement about it burning more efficiently, because the small can directs the flame close to the air holes , it must mix some more oxygen with the wood gasses
if you use fast light coal (to start a fire easier) then put in the normal coals after it light up, you wont have that smoke coming from the wood, it doesn't smell as much either and wont have that much flame but its still hot just like the BBQ
i have made my first 1 with a fan using a T.E.G. and heat sink copying the original 'biolite camp stove'
then made another 2 using my own designs without the fan. and experimenting I found out that using coal is better than wood.
I do not know how I over looked this video! Awesome idea, I watched this and then sat down to draw down an idea of my own using this as the design base. Hope you do not mind if I tinker with it a bit giving you credit and a thanks for inspiration. It's been a while since I have played around in the shop so lets just see what happens.
Enjoyed the video, but how you utilized the 3d (smallest tin) is not clear. I see it suspended in the stove at the end of the video, but how does it actaully function in cooking?
@hiltonre It looks like it reflects the heat and forces the smoke out right next to the jets so that the upper jets burn off any unburnt fuel. I'll have to add that to my design.
It's probably not a good idea to eat what ever is in the can because of tiny metal shards that may have dropped into the can while you were cutting the lid. Having very sharp metal shavings go through your digestive tract is probably not a very nice feeling!
I'm sorry to say I couldn't hear a thing. you're speaking to fast, and to quiet. Hopefully you'll get a little more confidence and be able to speak louder as you do these more often but thanks for the effort.

Dude. This was awesome! I just bought Bush Buddy stove, and I'm kicking myself for not seeing your video first! Definitely gonna try building one as soon as possible. Keep it up, my man!
Thanks and the third tin is called a gas wick it is used to improve efficiency of the stove and can make the flame burn blue,I have a few videos about it on my other channel if you want to check them out!

how big are the holes in the gas wick? 2nd can on the bottom. The only thing that aggravated me was looking up conversion tables LOL.

the original costs £60 on the internet yet you can make your own and spend about less that £10.

It is not clear what you do with the smallest can.
If it goes in the others does it need holes too, and where?
