Set it and forget it! Ronco style. This is another good design from you and I enjoyed watching the process. Your tutorial presentation is well done and the effort put into careful shots and proper voiceover is worth it.

I also enjoyed when your narration went into mystical heavy echo mode hahah.

I took a special class in video school, to learn how to do the mystical echo :-)

Great and simple design Lanny! I hope to help myself an others when the lights go out!

Thanks for the 5 stars.

Next I do the shielded pot and then my alcohol burner design.

Where do I get a 6 liter camp pot? I've been searching the web and I can't find a pot without side handles. I'd like to make a green pail but I can't find a pan that would fit in it.

Snips come in three colors. Yellow snips cut straight. Red snips are rights and cut left. Green snips are lefts and they cut right. The way they are made makes the metal you are cutting rise in a different direction, kind of a little twist if you want to call it that. Take a close look next time you are the hardware store and you'll see the difference. A pair of yellows will work fine for this job. Ps don't cut wire with them or you'll mess them up. Peace

Great idea and well worth it to have two or three of these suckers.

A little lay out help: To find the circumference of a circle take diameter of circle multiplied by pi (3.14159). Don't forget to add lap. Great stuff on this here computer gadget.

great project .

i cant find a pot with a bail anywhere near that size . where did you get it ?

Very cool design - the only suggestion would be to use a food grade bucket so no chemicals leach into the food.

other than that, a very nice job. Keep up the good work.

:D

This video is incredible. I hope that your plans will help many in the developing world.

I have given all of your videos the highest rating. It is well deserved. Many Thanks!

great to see how you make this stuff

[manchild002]

Hey, watched it all the way through. People need to take this survival stuff seriously. A stove like the one you have designed should be on hand just in case. The inside can be used for dry food storage so that you don't forget your food. Good stuff. Joshua.

Why do you use 2 different snips when cutting the cake pan for the tabs?
