Use sprig loaded candles that they make for the candle heater It would keep the flame up near the tube for the whole burn ...And for the lid of the ammo can that you open put the closer on bottom So you can have a flat surface to warm stuff on ...Just add a piece of metal in top of the stove near the door area to keep heat at the top when door is open it keeps the heat from coming out that much when door gets opened ...Same as a real wood stove ..I am using kerosene lanters for my stove 3 of them for my cabin ...For truck use two or one ...

I wonder if putting a damper in the exhaust pipe would allow you to capture even more heat.

I use small oil lamps for heating. Change glass glob for a soup can and burn #1 diesel. 2 keep apt warm on mid 30 nights., and last 8 hours plus. For your application, one for not to cold days and 2 for colder days. Nice build. KZbin channel: Daniel’s Inventions similar one.

If you get three tall olive glass jars, you could make crisco/vegetable oil lamps might work well too.

It's interesting that the airflow limits the number of candles you can use. If you put some kind of damper or valve on the air intake, you can probably use it to control the burn rate for any size or number of candles. Nice work, Thanks!

Thank you. Great.

Awesome

Ahh, Wild Wonderful West Virginia. Brings back some great memories. Thanks

I have the brass UCO lantern and I take it on every camping trip ! The beeswax candles burn longer , four more hours I think. I only buy the beeswax ones .

Beautiful spot for camping. Fall is my favorite season.

Spring loaded candles??? What will they think of next? I love it.

Big fan of pup tents, the canvas ones are heavy but you can save weight by making poles on the fly, good find 👍👍

Cool tent. It looks like it would be easy to set up as well.

There's the UCO candle lantern, which may fit within the ammo box. A three candle lantern that advocates an output of 5,000 btu of heat; candles of which said of up to 9 hours of burn time; bee's wax optional. What's neat about this rig, is that the candles are spring loaded, and the flame more so stationary while the candles burn down. The wix, and flame in the same position at the top. Rather than the candles burn down, and the flames along with it, with a distance variance of getting wider away from the pipes. What you've devised is a pretty cool set up; I like it....Lantern modification optional, and too can be tinkered with a bit, I suspect, or just the base plate itself that holds the candles may suffice in being used.

🤔

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you want the chimney to heat up enough to draw the heavy, cold air up the bottom? If the air cools down too much by the time it reaches the top of the chimney won't it become too heavy to draw and either reduce efficiency or suffocate the flames completely? A problem that will just get worse the colder it gets outside? (When you need the heat the most) Otherwise I do like this concept and I'm considering it for an outhouse as a cheap way to keep the small space reasonably warm in the dead of winter without having to sacrifice leg hairs to a Little Buddy.

Bushcraft Outback amazing build....Peace

Just keep in mind that one candle = ~100 watts. A typical electric room heater is ~1,500 watts for comparison. You better be practically sitting on the box to get much out of it during cold conditions.

Kerosene, jam jar and a wick will last all night.

that's not enough btu's to heat a shoebox...lol

Sweet setup you deserve more views! Subscribed myself!

Great job, I love this idea.

Cool idea 👍👍 Volume is to low to hear you though ☹️

The video that I saw the man took a jar and made a multiple wick oil lamp which kept the flames at a certain distance from The heat pipe and burned for a long time

Limited only by the BTU content of candle wax.

Fantastic idea when you only need to knock the chill off.

Reminds me of the old 1940's US army pup split tents, wish I had a lavuu but I can't justify the price, even second hand. Quality setup thanks for sharing 👍

Love the video and the configuration, but struggling to hear you because you are far from your camera/phone.

Thanks for all the great feedback

Beautiful

I really enjoy your videos. I am in my seventies, so we are close in age. I would venture to say that most people who would make a comment like that probably do not know one thing about it. Also, at our age, having a good nights sleep can not be over emphasized.. My feeling is that if it is not fun and relaxing, why do it?.Take care

I miss the big beech trees. We don’t have any down here.

Way to go girl.

Ah yeah, I remember the good old days bass fishing… all the peace and serenity. Except I never really caught anything, got eaten alive by mosquitoes, wind, rain… oh yes the good old days.

Hahaha it ain't getting away! Go girl!

Oh no

I love the little stove
