  • Excellent demonstration of efficently using an alcohol burner stove indendently. I especially liked the looks of the material used to manufacture that particular stove. Looks to be made of Brass. I wonder; would there be a website or snailmail address for a Yank like myself to purchase such a particular Brass Stove?

  • the stove unit was made from an old coffee jar and the main cooker unit is from a trangia stove, so if you can buy trangia stoves then you can buy the parts as the stove is sold seperatly

  • That is soo much like my Swedish Army mess kit. Is that where you got the idear?

  • no this came from trying to make a cooker for my billy can, the actuall idea was from peter gawleta he is known on youtube as 'gawletap'

  • Great video. I have pretty much the same setup but my hobo stove is made from an old dog food can which holds the meths burner. I need to make the can shorter though so that my billy can is nearer to the flame.

  • great set up there buddy...

  • can u make a vid on how to make the little stand with the holes in it. tnx anyway for the vid

  • fyi if you ad a sprinkly of salt to you meths it will show a flame.

  • Very nice kit. Good size for multiple people. Does your windscreen work well in windy weather? I find spirt burners are temperamental in wind.

  • hobo

  • thats neat!

  • Do you sell a 10 cm billy?

    My hobo stove is about 11.5cm across.

    Thanks for the reply.
