very nice
I applaud your limited use of tools to get a great result, though I will pray for the departed screwdriver. LOL
Good Job.
Bill
Hey, the screwdriver lives to fight another day! It survived me just fine
thanks for the comments, Bill
Brawny
nice vid
Did you have to pee in the cup to put out the fire?
hay thats pretty cool
This is my favorite of your vids. I try to be a minimalist also. I try to make use of what most people will throw away. Aren’t Pine cone great.Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Kamoyaker for your kind words.
I love survival stuff that is free!
Coolio. Nice stove. I’m gonna make one tomorrow after seeing this.
If you rub the bottom of the pan with washing up liquid before you start cooking it’ll clean up really easy afterwards…….Allegedly!
簡単な作りが逆に良い
anyone got an english translation for that, okamochesese?
I had a hobo stove once. That hobo put up a real fight. lol
you’re awesome. thank you for not showing us how to make a hobo stove using a can, autocad, and a milling machine. I’d share my boxcar and a bottle of port with you any day
You’re welcome! Us hobos can usually come up with this stuff, on the worst of days.
well, its a little marvel!
but i personally dont agree with cutting the whole of that side off, make a big hole instead but dont cut the top where the side was meant to meet the lid?
thanks for the comment, eatingkorpsez, I think thats worth a try. Next one I’ll do that. I thought it would be easier with simple tools to simply cut into it from the top down with my metal shears.
I just got my new BCB Fireball Flint & Striker and am thinking about using it to help make the fire for when I make one of these cool little things!
did you touch your coals at the end
the only way you can tall thats the fire is out is buttuching them
also dont make such a big hole in the side its you get alot of heat comeing out of there
Excellent stove! Sure beats blowing a C-Note on a high tech fuel stove.
That made me chuckle… Sorry for the Necro-Post
yea and tin cans and in general garbage is everywhere to be found even in places you dont expect it so all thats left is just using your own ingenuity to make something useful from it, such as a hobo stove.
This is almost like the first stove I built. My father made all of us boys make one for our camp stoves. I went searching and I found it the other day. THe memories that came back. It was made out of an old Folgers coffee can when they still painted them.
If you don’t have a log, you can fill it with water and freeze it.
Welldone.
