How to build a Rocket Stove

"A short video available for viewing or downloading describing the steps for building a small single pot VITA stove. The VITA stove is inexpensive to construct and seems suitable for outdoor cooking in refugee situations."

This video was linked on Boing Boing, I thought it was a great video that showcased some exceptional DIY technology and could use a little more exposure (since it was not already on YouTube). To concerned parties: If this causes any kind of problem with copyright, just let me know and I'll remove it immediately.

@Klojerk Watch the video again, I added an annotation just for you!

[gadcarlee]

sir, what kind of clay did you use for the bricks? thank you very much

[neotoy]

@gadcarlee Read the info box please :/

[WoundedEgo]

Would HyperTufa work for the bricks?

Can this be adapted to heat a home and/or indoor cooking? I'm thinking that you would route the heat out through a chimney.

[neotoy]

Don't know.

It's not optimized to heat a home. Using any stove indoors runs the risk of asphyxiation, and carbon monoxide poisoning.
