sum one on you tube said to put a bend on the holes to make the flames twist i did it also makes the flame hotter and it melted my fan :( so from now on my blowing going to be from the sides where i can remove the fan

@bucketrobbert With my makeshift heat barrier I haven't experienced those issues. With the fan on high the heat does increase but again I haven't seen any melting.

@2909francois Thanks for your comments. Unfortunately, I don't have any immediate plans to make any more gas stove videos. However, I would offer you some incite into how to make one similar to the one you saw. I saw the same video. In order to do it, the center can or burn chamber shouldn't have any holes in the bottom, the holes in the sides, approx 1 1/4" from the bottom, should be evenly spaced small yet large enough to allow air to flow through, the holes are the key.

Storm collar did you get it in the vent pipe section of the hardware store?

[rhandsom]

@shartne Yes, I got it from Home Depot in their HVAC section, Google for 3RV-SC STORM COLLAR 3".
