Thanks for the review looks exactly what im looking for. Much appreciated 👍 The little scandie fan that runs from the heat of the stove work

Get a couple of those heat activated fans to spread the heat.

[@wanderingsandmusings9255]

Yeah I have one of those, but sadly its too weak to make any real difference. I will get a fan that runs off my dewalt 18v battery and that should really help.

It's a shame GStove went out of business. I bought the standard size version in 2022 and still haven't gave it its first burn yet. It's 2024 and I was still able to find a 3L water tank and a tent protector pipe sleeve. The tent protector looks to be a poor Design, but the stainless steel is high-quality and tough. The bad design comes from the method the sleeve attaches to the stove pipe, using 6 long screws. The idea is that the sleeve should tighten snug, but the protector is much heavier than the pipe section, and I won't want to leave any divits in my pipe. The water tank is something I've wanted for a few years and finally got one. I wanted to post here that since the GStove pipe oven is also no longer for sale that I took a chance and bought a Winnerwell pipe oven. It's box-shaped and the specs say it's for the 2.36" pipe. Yes, the Winnerwell oven fits the GStove pipe LIKE A BOSS. It's an identical fit. Just perfect.. almost too perfect. So yea, it looks like the Winnerwell and GStove 2.36" and 2.5" measurements are basically the same thing, where 2.36" is probably referencing the smaller end of the stove pipe, but it looks like the two stoves are probably component-friendly.

[@wanderingsandmusings9255]

We can still buy them here but only one place sells them.

​@@wanderingsandmusings9255 not worth the cost especially since the lifetime warranty isn’t included or soon won’t be. Mine has developed a crack on the top left of the stove and all three that I have replaced. They stopped replacing them, but I’m glad it’s working for you watch for that crack, it usually happens after putting a lot of dry fast hot burning wood in the stove. Like dry ash wood. If you can get it red hot it’ll most likely develop a crack. I needed the heat here in the winter but a cast iron design might be the way to go.

@@ChristBringDelight thanks I will have to keep an eye out for that - will get it welded if it happens, I'm nostly worried about corrosion in the base as water g.ets in when im away sometimes
