hello tom

I've used a vegetable can (140mmx30mm) as inner burner. The outside can is a coffee can (100mmx190mm). I've drilled the holes with a normal drill. cheap and easy

thanks!I wonder by what factor this will save on my wood consumption, for it seems one is burning all the smoke.

You can boil a quart of water in 15min using small squaw wood. Produced charcoal glows 10-15 min. You'll need to fill it up before lighting it. For a good burn I fill it to the top with small pieces of wood (twigs..), bigger pieces below and smaller on top.

You'll need to start with a good burn, I use zip/firestar to get it going. After a few minutes you'll see the secondary combustion starting up. There won't be smoke if the combustion is optimal.

If you want more info, just let me know.

Please explain how this is a "wood gas" stove as opposed to rocket stove.

Good video.

It's very similar to the bush buddy. However being much taller it works better than the BB.
