@KretinBassist Only one problem with that. They get really hot and eventually crack and explode, said from experience not to be confrontational. An ideal mix is both, having a stone on top of the wood, the wood will release the heat slower (until of course it collapses ;) ) and the rock will keep the heat longer before cracking.
Great tutorial used it myself to make one :), cheers!

Great video! Thanks! I cant wait to try this. I wonder if a wooden tent peg could be driven down to make the diagnal vent? Hey man, not being nosey, but when do you think you will be able to use your arm again? That must be difficult! Thanks for posting, and your time. Calvin.

i'll add that we just dug a trench and put a section of stove pipe in and covered it,if we were really into it a elbow was added at the intake end.

we made these in Scouts back in the 50's,at the time they were were almost "science fiction" compared to the ring of rocks type fire places.

I can just imagine how some rocks in there would store a ton of heat and make this even more handy. Plus the forced airflow is handy in general as a concept when air flow is useful. Great vid
Is this mostly for cooking? I ask because it looks like you would have trouble keeping rain from running down the air vent and flooding the fire.

it is for cooking..but the fire inside is so hot from radiating off the walls that i believe it ou evaporate so quickly is may not mateer. i guess it depends on how quickly the water ran into the hole,,,even then the side would be so dry that it make soke it up quickley aswell....thx for watchin

i put rocks on 2 sides of it then 1 long one across so i don't have to worry about my cooking surface burning but this is good if you can't find a long rock
