DIY Making An Ammo Box Wood Burning Tent Stove - Custom Design

#simplyoutdoorswithshawna #hottentcamping #hottentwoodstoves
This video explains the materials and the process that a friend Kyle and myself used to make a hot tent wood stove out of an Ammo Box. Kyle took on the project and made an incredible custom made wood stove for my hot tent. Hope you enjoy the video!
Thank you so much Kyle for your hard work and the Masterpiece you made!
Thanks for Watching, Cheers!

Very neat stove I bet Kyle could make money building those for people. Very cool

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Yes it is a very neat stove! He could definitely could make money 😁

REally well thought out design! I love it especially the Spark Arrestor from a Pencil and Pen holder!

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Thank you. . Thank you for checking out my channel!

[@TheProCut17]

outstanding build

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Thanks for watching!

[@limmaanka]

Sweet! If you put the pipe holder on the bottom they can also work as " legs". Just a thought. Really nice build!👌👌👌🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Thanks for watching! and thanks for the suggestion Cheers!

[@ronkierstead]

Kyle did you proud. That stove is brilliant. I’m looking forward to seeing it in use.

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Yes Kyle did. Thank you! 👍

[@sosteve9113]

Looks really cool

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Thank you! It works amazing I will have more videos soon showing how it works on my outdoor trips.

Big up to Canadian creators :) great vid.

Thank you so much! Thanks for watching, Cheers!

[@kadandreatta9190]

Im on the process of reaearching my own tent stove solutions, and this jas to be my favorite design so far! Thanks for sharing Shawna :)

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Awesome! I’m so glad you checked out my video. Good luck with making your tent stove. Just a tip make sure your pipes insert upwards. I made to mistake by having them connect downwards. Nothing to bad that makes them unsafe just a little tip. Cheers!

[@cillaloves2fish688]

WOW!!! HOW AWESOME IS THAT!!!??!?? I need a friend like Kyle!! I have several ammo box sizes that I've collected to make a wood stove out of, but I cannot weld either... So until I find someone to help me out, I just keep them on hand. I'll have to find some muffler piping similar to what you have, my brother can probably help with that. I love ur stove! One thing I might have done different is to slightly angle out the legs, but yours will work out just fine! U forgot to show off the inside, oh the baffle was genius... that will help to keep more heat instead of going straight up the pipe!

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

I think everyone needs a friend like Kyle!😁 Putting the legs on a angle is a great idea it would be more stable. Thanks for watching, Cheers!

[@adventureswithrick8032]

I have my ammo box ordered (.50 cal) $20 from eBay Your design is similar to what I’ve been thinking so I’m excited to see yours

[@angler2058]

Kyle hooked you up. Nice job building. 👍👋🔥🔥🔥

[@f8bethere]

Looking good. Can’t wait to see it in use.

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Thank you! Soon I will be making a video with the stove. Cheers!

[@mikehotshots7607]

I'm planning to make one myself and was thinking of putting intake air holes in the back. Glad I found this video to let me know it can be done!

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Hi! Yes the intake holes in the back work very well for getting your fire going and keeping a even burn. You will notice on one of my videos where I show my hot tent and the second burn on the wood stove. I added some venting holes in the front I find with that the front and back venting works perfect. Let me know how your stove turns out! Thanks for watching, Cheers!

It's really rocking stove,and the biggest value and also a priceless thing is that it's costum made

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Yes it is pretty rocking and priceless! Thank you.!

[@offgridwolfshut5529]

@@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429 and great thing with amo can is you can feed it with a big fat log from above and have fire for hours

[@cillaloves2fish688]

@@offgridwolfshut5529 But the baffle is welded to the inside... Kinda hard to feed it thru the top... But maybe she can fit a thick piece of wood thru the door!

Я в начале подумал, что это мужчина 😆 пригляделся .. женщина оказывается. Чисто капитан- Америка 😀

[@bjl1000]

Instead of grinding the handle off, why not turn it upside down and use the hinged lid as an access to remove the ashes? The bottom, now on the top, could be used to cook on.

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Hi there! Yes that is an excellent way to do the stove as well. Thanks for sharing and watching! Cheers

[@stevet4564]

Maybe a video of Kyle actually doing the modifications would be helpful to someone looking to build their own stove. .... You did a great job..... buying parts.

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Thanks for watching! At the time when I made my video Kyle did not have a video on how he made the stove. He has one now check it out.👍 kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnLcXo2Nht1_rM0

[@mikehammons2829]

Great build. The side racks would be very useful for drying clothes or keeping foodwarm.. maybe even a water tank.. Mike

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Hi there thanks for watching. Perfect ideas I think I might make a water tank that fits in that area.👍

[@davidvoggenhuber9669]

nice again.

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Thank you! 😁

[@livingintheprairie1517]

Nice. Did you think of try to get everything in side the box? I still think it's a pretty cool stove. Happy camping.

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Hi yes I did think of getting everything inside the box. If I wanted too fit all the chimney pieces in I would need to cut them and that would require more joint pieces to fit them together. I didn’t want that. Thank you so much for watching, Cheers!

[@jonjaramillo7656]

kyle out did himself!!!!!! what an amazing build.... this is by far the best damm ammo can stove EVER PUT ON KZbin!!!!! not gunna lie... extreeeemely jealous hahahaha certainly looking foward to seeing this in action during a winter camping trip..... ummmm also kyle.... if you were to reproduce this piece of wood stove glory..... how much would ya charge??

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

I agree with you 100% the best damn wood stove ever!! I was so lucky to have Kyle design this masterpiece for me. Thanks for watching Cheers!

[@budwilliams6590]

You should have installed the pipes with the larger end at the top. The way they are, creosote can run down the inside of the pipe and leak to the outside at the joints. This is very messy and you are going to hate it when you get it. If you invert the pipes like I suggested each section will act like a funnel and any creosote that runs down the pipe will stay in the pipe till it gets to the stove and be burned. This is a mistake that I see in the design of a lot these tent stoves that are made by so called pros.

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Thanks for the advice. I have used the stove about 5 times now and the joints had a little creosote but nothing that bad nothing that would make it messy. Thank you for watching!

[@rmjsvcs5070]

Hope that pipe is not GALVANIZED

[@bobjones8372]

Great workmanship but sorry to say it has 2 big design flaws, the pipe is upside down, the male should go into the female so the creosote drips back down on the inside of pipe into the stove and is reburned, that way the pipe stays clean, the way you have it, it can become a gooey mess, also the draft should be low on the front door so air is pulled through the wood. Sorry

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Hi there! Thanks for watching! Thank you for the tips on the pipe and draft holes on the front. I definitely notice the problem with the pipes the first few times I burned on the stove. I recently change that. I will put some draft holes down below the door that should really help the burning of wood thank you. Cheers!

[@robertuffman3041]

pipe upside down.

[@simplyoutdoorswithshawna9429]

Yes when everything was finished I noticed the pipes. They have not caused me any problems the way they are so I left them. Thanks so much for watching, Cheers!
