Thanks, especially for the alignment tips at the end. I've just made my first frame with this and it has improved my framing. With a bit more practice, I can see how it will get even better.

Great Video. Thank you…

I think how big the center flame is means nothing when there is a pot on the stove. Do the test with a pot on and I believe you will see the jets on the wick stove have bigger flames and a faster boil time than the other stove. Plus the all-around biggest advantage with carbon wick stoves is their ability to light in freezing temps. How it works when you actually use it as a stove, its boil times, and how it performs in cold temps are the tests that matter. IMO

Chimney in, thank you...

Ok, ow Im really confused because you said in another comment you dont use this anymore but this is your latest video here on stoves ? Plus, Im wondering why you dont use a fancee feast type. I thought those also worked better in cold weather with no bloom time!

Can you place some carbon felt or insulation inside some how to prevent spills ? If so , can you just add some inside on the bottom or does it have to be inside the outer wall?

glad I saw this test

I had also tried carbon felt between the walls of my stove. I was trying to figure out why it was not working as I thought it would, when I came across this video. Thanks you had the answer I was looking for. My felt was cut too high... I cut the felt shorter and BOOM it works beautifully!

What’s the trick to putting the spring back in? It wasn’t too clear on your video. I tried rewatching a few times but I keep missing something

Felt offers up a higher rate of vapor wicking/hotter flame. Modify the burner throttle top to half curret O.D. and retest. Smaller/hotter flame should extend life of same vilume + hotter flame temps

excellent video, thank you sir! I'm wondering where you get your picture frame wood, it looks unfinished which is what I'm looking for

Little bit of this and that nice

Impressive, but why do you need a double ventilation system?

Can you tell me what the main dimensions are for your table, length & width of the table, height of the legs?

I use a pot stand so the stove can breath and not smother

Galvinize melts at 900 degrees F and criticle temp of galvinize is 1600degrees F for the zinc to vaporize combining with o2 to form zinc oxide. Perfectly safe to use in a hot tent as long as you are not welding it in there. I'm am retired welder with 30+ years of experience and have welded galvinize having training to do so. No galvinize stove pipe on a ammo can heater will ever reach the melting point of galvinize.

I stared at the plans for an hour because I had to sort out I think the G, H, I parts were labeled wrong.

Great presentation. Why is it usefuil to have the outer flames? Isn't a central flame sufficient?

I saw a video of a guy who filled the alcohol stove with Perlite which can be found in the garden section then add alcohol and light. I bought the perlite not made by miracle grow because I thought maybe it had added ingredients. Perlite is almost weightless and does not burn. It was better than just straight burning alcohol with nothing in the stove. I haven’t tested burn times with and without perlite

Thank You so much for the update

Lol, anyway! Nothing like the comment section to make somone feel more brave! I thought it was neat to see this because the film shows you can use the top of the can to make a spill proof stove! And you made it look good! 😂 Not my design! Love these stoves! Also you might have solved my seam problem, because the stove that I made is prepped within a seperate manner than these topped filled stoves that have a screen instead of drilled hole's! Push pins is not the way 🎉 Wow, you really refined how you build that! The tooth pick was amazing, honestly surprised!

A PAINFUL REMINDER TO STASH THE CAN IN A FIRST AID KIT ! AHH GOTTA LUV BUSHCRAFT IN THE OUTBACK !

Thank you for doing this easy to understand video for this 73 year old couch potato great grandmother that just LOVES to see these outdoor cooking stoves, lol! I’m a visual learner so this video was perfect. I have various purchased stoves but I will definitely use your video to make an alcohol stove since you made it so easy to understand. I want to have plenty of cheaply made stoves on hand in case I need to give them away for any reason.

Do you sell these jigs?

Great video thanks.

🙂👍🏻

Darth Vader approved 😂

It's amazing to see how popular the concept of the "mini alcohol stove" has become in the Information Age. When I was first introduced to the concept, it was from the perspective of emergenicies, or survival. When I was taught to make what we called a "Penny Stove," it was made using the barest of primitive tools. Namely, nothing but a pocket knife, a 12 oz can, and I think the alcohol came from either an emergency medical kit, or from a bottle of high proof liquor. I would never have thought to use a dremmel or other precision hand tools. Same with Rocket Stoves and Heaters. But now Im curious to start projects like this on a work bench instead of the campsite. Creativity is a very cool thing now that Im older.

Could this be done without a drill press

I think the carbon fiber stove shows that carbon fiber does a poorer job of wicking fuel and because of that, more fuel burns from the bowl than from the tip of the wick. When the bowl is empty, it continues to burn the little bit of fuel that did go up the wick. However, with that said, it would be interesting to see what would happen if you blocked the bowl completely so it couldn't burn fuel from the bowl and could only burn from the top of the wick. 1) Would the carbon fiber burn longer? 2) Would it be hotter or cooler or the same as the unmodified stove? Seems to me, using carbon fiber might cause the stove to burn slower, and a bit cooler.

Unless the heat output is measured for each stove is tested , it is impossible to know which will boil water quicker, which is what is really important. If the carbon felt boils 500ml. of water in 3 minutes & the standard takes 6.5 minutes which is more efficient? That's what's important.

Hello Sir, thanks for the video You have some useful tips. something I learned though practice is to light a stove from the top, that way the chimney heats up and starts to draw air before the main material catches light. This way You don't get smoke build up You see. Best Wishes, Jahmahrah

i like your tool for putting the 2 outer pieces together.

Hi Tim. Great idea. How long is your jig when it is folded? Thx Mike

I can see you haven't been making videos for awhile but I just have to say that your stove builds are fantastic. I was kind of looking for an alcohol stove that didn't have to have the pot directly on it or maybe make a groove type because it looked easy to make. But after seeing your demonstrations I'm going to make your mini can stove. My cook set looks just like yours and you explain it all so well I'll be able to easily do it. It's about time for some Winter projects anyway. I'll probably make a few to get the hang of it and might even make a lathe chuck from a piece of scrap wood for polishing in my metal lathe. I always need an excuse to use it anyway. You're a smart cookie. Thanks for your videos.

Really terrific work, thanks for creating and sharing! Fun to see a talented woodworker create this.

"Very good sir."

Thoughtfully edited, clearly measured out, and clearly explained alcohol stove instructional. My major challenge will be to find a full Foster's can in my fridge. 😅

nice job portable stove

Awesome I'm using 1/4 in bolts with wing nuts thanks for the great video.

Do those 90 degree have to be perfect limited tools?

Do you sell these?

That book measurement trick is brilliant.

👉💯👍

I made a few of these but didn’t care for them

I watched the first video and thank you for sharing the desighn changes and issues resulting. I had carbon felt in my Amazon cart to order. Luckily i watched back to back.always interesting.

Very interesting. It changes my thoughts on build quite a bit.

Hi can you show me the mortice being done please.kindest regards tim

Excelente trabajo, muchas gracias🙏💕
