What else do you build?

[Dee Bee]

Since my Wood Gas Stove I thought I'd try a simpler approach and make a rocket stove.

I started with mini-kegs I found on the street, bean cans and a coffee can.


Here is the result



I'll let you know how it burns...

Looks good. So how did it run?

Should I ditch my gasifier, and build one of these instead?

Hi Mike

It works well, but not nearly as fast as my wood gassifier. Over 7 min for a boil. Compareed to 2 min. But there is greater control of cooking temperature. No moving or electrical parts, no batteries required. Simple. Fun project. It has its place in my collection, I'll keep it.

Everybody has so many talents, it refreshing to see that we as a group can do anything.
