Marsh Rat Agreed on the baffle; I haven't built a stove in years without one. For the after burner I punch a few holes on the back of the stove just above the baffle. Same effect without the pre heat.

Having watched this video several times now, I think that the design is great, and part of what makes it good is the combination of fixed and movable parts. I always said that a large part of what makes Northern people so smart is the "encouragement" from Father Winter. Nothing like a cold behind to encourage creativity in the stove building. LOL Thanks again for the great video.

Hey Marsh Rat! Nice to see someone from NW Ohio doing something creative! I'm also from MW Ohio, but I've been transplanted into northern Minnesota. Winters up here are brutal! Any small heater like this is appreciated. I've got a wood stove in the garage for heat, but it takes a while to heat up. A smaller burner that could make quick heat would be great while waiting for the big stove to heat up. Seems like you think like an engineer, but you speak like a common man. I can appreciate that. Reminds me of my dad, bless his soul. Thanks for the inspiration with the video!

Hey Larry, great design, fabrication and stove you have there. Looks like a winner. Many who watch your vid will get more than a few pointers with your great description and demo. Your box being so narrow you might want to reduce the height of the grate in half to give you more space for wood inside the burn chamber. That amount of space could give you another hour+ of heat if you drop the grate lower. Once you get a hot bed of coals in the bottom from continuous feeding it fresh wood throughout the day/evening you should increase your heat production many more hours. In my stoves I try to leave as many places to shove wood as I can. Dampering it down I can get her to burn most of the night in my M-1950 five man Arctic tent. Sleeping on my 1945's Army cot I often cook myself to a sweat until I vent the bottom of the tent door. It is a wonderful combination in temps under freezing. I would never cold camp again if I could help it. Keep up the good work and happy hot tenting...

I think that the most likely indicators that the re-burn is working is the lack of smoke (although you were using what looked like very well-seasoned wood) and the almost complete absence of tars and sooty residues on the stove, particularly around the entry holes for the heated secondary air. Ammo boxes are a bit hard to get here in the UK, I 've made a few stoves but I think I'll try one with a 5 gal cooking oil can, and just put a u-shaped flattened pipe in along the sides and along the top. I'll drill holes in the top part for the hot secondary burn air to exit. I can block it with my finger at the cool lower end once its been burning a while. If smoke comes out when its blocked, it works, and I'll then just make a simple butterfly valve which will also allow me to control the burn when used with the primary air control. Enjoyed your video, thanks.

So far I've focused so much on the secondary air that I have to leave the door propped open to heat it up without smoking the whole township.

Very nice design, and an excellent description of how and why it works. I like the damper you mounted. One is good, two is better, one higher in the stove pipe. I have found that a stove like your is maximum size for a tent, van, or houseboat. The biggest problem I have found with wood stoves is that there is no "Low" setting. Big ones run me out of the room. I can tell you like to tinker, so let me suggest this. Most stoves draw air from the room, like a big vacuum cleaner, with warm air going into the stove and up the chimney, and cold air coming in the doors, windows, and cracks. I put an air intake pipe on my stove's floor in my house, with a 2" gate valve to control air intake. It sucks cold air from the outside via a pipe through a hole in the floor, burns it, and the exhaust goes back outside through the chimney. The warm air stays inside the van. house, or tent. Any fool can make an expensive, complex rig to do that, but I suspect you can come up with a simple, cheap way to do the same thing on an ammo can stove, allowing for both air flows. Any suggestions? I have been trying to design a stove like you drew for my boat and van, but welded out of heavier metal for durability. I thought to weld on some vertical, outside fins on the sides for heat dispersion. What you explained here will complete the design. I tried a propane tank, but the rounded bottom makes ash removal difficult. Thanks for a fun, informative, thought provoking video.

Great job on the vid!! Enjoyed it! My wife an avid camping buff, said she would put a copper coil in the baffle or secondary channel and use the heat to convection/pump hot water. Would make clean up a lot more effiecient after a day on the trail, dishes and personage alike clean easier with hot water. The stove top is to small to cook and heat water at the same time so her idea has real merit. Thanks and Be Well

Very nice stove and video Larry. In the spirit of open innovation, here's an idea; An additional or tertiary air feed could possibly be incorporated to your design in the center and top of the burn chamber by running a stainless 1'' pipe with an airtight fitting installed on the bottom of the stove for its air draw and have it come up to preheat up the rear and come in through the stainless plate just below the drilled holes , It would need to be capped off at the inside end where the baffle ends and t have 1/4'' holes drilled in it like a flute sort of, to inject even more superheated air and further intensify the combustion of C02, smoke and other gases right on top of the primary burn area.. You could secure it with eye bolts and wing-nuts and have a damper on the open end underneath the stove to adjust your air volume. Thanks for posting, I've subbed your channel and please give me feedback on my idea, good or bad.. Cheers, Al.

Very nice! I wonder if by insulating the burn chamber with a layer of SS, you're saving the can, but also increasing the heat going out the top. I'm thinking of trying something like this but designing as if the can itself was sacrificial. You're right, ammo cans are lightweight, and will burn through eventually, but they're also cheap. I might even fix some strips of angle iron to increase radiant heating. Anyway thanks for the great ideas.

Brilliant! Perfect timing that this popped up on my feed. I've just got 2 ammo cans: a 50 cal and a 50 cal fat boy. One fits nicely inside the other, and I've found some slates to fit between the side walls, filling the gap, but might reconsider and keep empty for air flow after watching this. What do you think? With the slates in the sides, the air could still circulate under, behind and over the baffle, which would be one side of the inner can.

@@MarshRat I did the same - I got a 2.4 gallon waste bucket (stainless steel). Then I had some grill thicker metal - I bent it and attached a baffle on top. So I slide it in, thereby creating the secondary air channels underneath and it preheats the air - And then it circulates back under the baffle. So this increases the heat retained into the stove also - for cooking and heating - along with the no smoke burn. I'm gonna test it out tomorrow with the damper activated also - I posted upload vids to my channel.

Thanks. The build was just an idea that popped into my head after watching many YT vids on the stoves and noticing comments regarding how they seemed to heat up the pipe too hot and burn the sides of the thin cans.

Now I'm a woman but I can see exactly what you are doing there and from the pattern of the heat it looks like it works really well. I may try this. I have asked a couple of people if these are safe inside if the stove is properly secured to something fireproof as I am going to be building a cabin in Scotland when the weather stops playing silly buggers with my plans for laying the concrete piers. Basically I don't want to freeze and I also don't want to burn the place down before its built. .but I don't want to have the cooking woodstove oven that I am going to get, all beat up by said Scottish Highland weather! I would have tried to do one of the propane tank woodstove things but I can't weld so your version seems like the most logical to me (maybe because my late father was a marine engineer and I, being a tomboy was the closest thing to the son he never got, always seem to be the person in any situation who can fix washing machines and various other mechanical problems! ) if you could answer me about the safety of this inside I'd be grateful. I do know that the paint has to be burned until it stops producing fumes outside in the open air.

+Anne Anderson (Foxiepaws) Great question. If you keep the stove pipe and door connections tight then I'd think safety from carbon monoxide would be OK. However, I'd strongly recommend a double or triple walled flue pipe rated for wood stoves. The other thing to consider is that I would not expect this small stove to put out enough BTU's to keep you warm and toasty on a cold winter night in a cabin.

Marsh Rat I never thought of that (keeping me warm in winter) I'm hoping to have the first bit with the loft and kitchen ready before winter and I intend to get a bigger 'bought' cooking wood stove by then. I really just wanted the little one for colder days and nights during late summer and before that just so (Scotland can have the most contrary weather) I didn't end up freezing if we have any cold snaps, also for hot drinks on work breaks. Thanks for warning me though...mind you I'm sometimes sitting right on the edge of my sister's fireplace and still freezing in Scotland. ..it's that gale Force Winds that Siberia so kindly sends our way every winter....from Russia with love LOL! I'll be an expert on woodstoves the first cold night we have I'll be building them in bulk lol! I still think that your one will do the job while I am building and insulating. Thanks for getting back to me.

I wonder if you use a stainless steel container (instead of an ammo can) it would hold up better? 🤔 I’ve also been looking for something compact that uses an afterburner in the design.

@daphneraven6745 10 ай бұрын
it might hold up OK, especially if you were willing to make a little bit of what they call glass paint out of silica gel To protect the unit, And put a little bit of gravel or stand, or even slightly elevated bit of mesh to hold the burning fuel above the bottom of the stove. and to get the most out of it, you might want to put a little time into finding the right diameter chimney for your stove, so that little of your heat goes up the chimney, even with the efficiency of the afterburner baffle.

@@yourekittenme. : : That’s really great; not everybody knows what that is. :) May I ask, what sort of project you used on, and how effective you observed it to be? It occurs to me that there’s not much that holds up better than than an ammo can, But it would be interesting to test glass paint on stainless for your application, And even on an ammo can. Depending on the design, stainless steel could be quite lightweight, which is a nice thing when a person is tracking a distance with weight on his or her back. Glass paint might be a great way to make a flat-folding stove perhaps more lightweight and durable than using an ammo box, if weight and compactness are important. The Newfoundland outsider as a video for making a stainless stove that packs flat, and weighs about 3 1/2 pounds. It may be possible to modify his design so that you still have a nice flight and lightweight stove, but with the afterburner and baffle in it. it’s easy to imagine exactly how this might come together, and the amount of function gain for the small amount of weight that would be added, is fairly negligible. (I’ve been thinking about this since yesterday evening); it’s particularly nice to find another person out here, who is sort of thinking along the same lines. it seems to me that the added heat might change the lifespan, but the glass paint could be the mitigator here. It also seems to me that if a person were to add some fins along the side of the box, for lack of a better word, that could change the way that the heat radiates away from it, especially if a person were willing to add the heat-activated stove fan. It wouldn’t even have to be very happy to do a really great job.

Would like to know if it heats the same, better or worse than a stove without afterburner. It looks very well built. Not much room in a little stove. I would probably wanna put as much wood as possible in it instead of taking away capacity. Curious as to what the temps are when burner is opened and if any difference when closed. I'm open to this idea. Just wanna know if it's the way to go or not.

I didn’t see where the fresh air was supposed to come in for the secondary air source was placed? Did you drill a hole at the bottom of the ammo can for that? Good video though!! Thanks!

Great video, thanks for sharing. I have a question, I like and understand how you made the stove standing tall rather than long. Do you think that it loses stove top area though? Or do you think a baffle and 2nd air intake would lose its efficiency if it was build with less height space and longer?

Marsh, I've watch your video but still don't see how you control your air flow to the afterburner. When you slide the afterburner into the ammo can does the air come in by it self? From what I can see your air control is above the afterburner. So how is the fresh air getting through the tube of the afterburner, I know how it gets out. Great Video
@MarshRat
@MarshRat 10 жыл бұрын
Gilbert Boshell Take another look at the vid starting at 12:38. The fresh air comes in from the bottom of the can and exits out of the top. Cold air naturally rises as it is heated. The air control is on the bottom of the can and I didn't do a good job in describing it. Does this help?
