Nice one - I am about to build a similar stove, out of a 4.5kg cylinder, for a tipi to take on canoe trips - nice & dinky. Have you finished the stove yet? how does it burn & have you any tips for me before I start on mine? Like the disc brake btw nice idea all the best.
Nice...Wood burners made from calor gas bottles were pretty standard kit on most of the buses and trailers of my friends... obviously with a chimney and a door, meant for heat as opposed to being able to cook on it
I don't know how well versed you are in welding but I thought there were problems welding cast steel to cold-rolled or cast to cast. I don't know, your call there.
Thanks for posting your comment, it let me know the link was broken and I've fixed it now :) I hope you enjoy my website NaturalBushcraft and please checkout my new NaturalBushcraft YouTube Channel. All the best, Ashley.
Surely with a bit more research these stoves would be far more efficient if they were used to create "Rocket Stoves" if you have not heard of them look them up, it is really the way to go.
Glad I found this. I've just retrieved a gas bottle I've seen laying in a hedge for the past 4 years whilst out on my bike. I'm going to make a woodburner for my garage.
I made a stove using an old gas bottle for my dining room a few months ago and it has served really well. You will need a good air inlet (mine is around 3 inches pipe with a butterfly type valve to control the air and hence the burn. Also go for at least a 4 inch out-pipe for the flu or you might not be able to get rid of the smoke quick enough - Good luck - ps instead of using an angle grinder (I used one initially) use a jigsaw with a steel cutting blade Mac
how do you make sure that there is no gas left inside the gas botle??

A 3" stove pipe would be a nice feature, and practical to, your pipe is far to small,you could fart more into that stove than your pipe could !

Nice job. Pipe looks a little narrow tho'.
I'm using an ally pipe with a sign on that says 'please pay for ticket at machine'!
