Homemade TIN CAN Rocket Stove - DIY Rocket Stove - Awesome Stove! - EASY instructions!

[@fvrrljr]

made one over the weekend with 11 year old daughter. we made Smore's after and cooked late lunch, rice and stew from scratch. Thanx for posting

[@Frossiart]

The ancient Romans used to heat their public baths using basically the same technology on a grander scale, heating both the floors and boiler for the water.Thanks for the tutorial. It's very instructive and useful in survival situations

[@kxrsuperstar]

I’m a connoisseur of rocket stove video ideas onYT. This is brilliant. The fact that you have a north east accent is a bonus.

[@Heathenboy30sum]

I made one today and it seems to work good, going to use it when I go ice fishing. I traced the soup can with a pen onto the pail and the larger center can, drilled a starter hole, then used a solid knife (banana knife) to cut out the holes a 1/4 inch at a time. I put a hole in the center can instead of notching it as you did, because I wanted to keep the base on the center can. I only used sand so that it would pack in and stay in place better. For those wondering how to clean it out, the ashes fall out of the inlet (soup) can easily enough. Thanks for the vid!

[@tahagold7943]

I wonder how long can this can keep the heat after the fire inside has burnt out. (Maybe use inside the tent.)

[@desertsun02]

thanks. yeah i think the stove works great. definitely make one. cost almost nothing to build and very easy to put together.

[@JackmanFlicks]

We lost power in Boston for 3 days. The only thing that saved us were the old ski suits ( It got down to 45 inside while zero F outside), and the burner on our Grill. This design is exactly what one needs to boil water and cook soup. Thanks for posting this!

[@MrJeffRowe]

Just a tip for people trying to cut the hole in the first tin.. If you fill the tin with DAMP sand , then lightly drop the can from about 5mm off the ground to pack it in, place the lid on top of the can and lay the can on its side.. you can now easily use a whole saw to cut the tin. ;)

[@Sidheavonney]

Next time, fill it half full of water and put it in the freezer. After it's frozen just use your hole saw, the ice will support the cut.

[@williambyrnes9691]

I'll remember that. Good idea!

[@Ayla_3.3]

Thanks for that!

[@lynchcon]

Great idea! I was going to use a small pair of tin snips.

[@julioleon559]

I haven't been on here for awhile it's been like 6 years or more and it's like my 1008th time using this Stove it's still going strong today. I always get asked at the beach what is that!! Then I show them by cooking burgers, chicken,hot dogs,steaks,pork chops,bacon and eggs and Brew my coffee as well as make soups on the beach everyone always says where's the flame and smoke I tell them it's virtually invisible and ask me if I want to sell it. I'm like no but I will gladly show you how to make one. Best stove I've ever had I just walk along the beach picking up thrash and dry driftwood and branches or even dry seaweed and burn that for hours on end. Still love it and use it almost every day.

[@barnabyvonrudal1]

Does the inner can ever burn out?

[@galactikbutterfly]

good video I like vermiculte rather than sand it is lighter and has better r value also put a small shelf 2/3 down for your wood in your feed tube...that way you still have draw and the twigs can rest on the shelf these are great can boil in short time and use twigs to do so very fuel efficient and portable i'm gonna make a duel burner like a colman stove no need for propane bottles

[@barnabyvonrudal1]

nice tips!

[@johnvermeulen5816]

Love the Rocket stove, built all sizes and shapes myself. Aviation snips are great for tin can work and a nail is good enough to puch the holes, that way we can save electricity. To avoid smoke you might have to increase the gap between the pot and stove, that seems to help for us! Keep up the solutions people, the time is here to share good info.

[@tannyn12]

IF YOU PUT WATER IN THE CAN AND FREEZE IT, YOU CAN DRILL RIGHT THROUGH WITHOUT BENDING THE CAN. CLEAN CUT

[@jackpeters9048]

Instead of the inside cans, just slip in a pipe with an elbow that feeds to the top... will last longer and cleaner...just a thought...nice video

[@apples13able]

Also try adding chimneys on top with different size cans or I've made a handy blower with a 2 liter coke bottle with a square hole and 12V 4" computer fan on the side, blow that into the fuel feed- mini forge, one last thing, a shelf for the fuel feed soup can helps air get under the sticks. Just watch the smoke from those linings from fresh cans and remember, more heat decreases the can life faster. Play with Fire.

[@shawns.2851]

I really got into building these as well as the alcohol burners, etc, and find that the clay cat liter works very well, and if slightly moistened before first burn tends to harden the litter into a cement like base, making it burn even warmer.

[@dungeonglasstudio]

you could use a nice pair of metal snips.

[@joeltham1979]

That is a good idea, thank you.

[@joeltham1979]

Pure genius and cat litter is cheap.

[@cynthiamoon372]

Shawn S. ... Super suggestion! Much faster than using cement like I had initially planned to do.

[@TimeSurfer206]

Clumping Cat Litter is nothing but Raw Bentonite Clay. It is not good for firing into pottery, but: in a case like this where we aren't worried about Waterproof, who cares?

[@toddrt5105]

I love it that you used what you had, to do as good or better than sandpaper, etc. Minimal is the way to go! Thanks!

[@tumbleweed6658]

By fellowing your video I made one of these last night it worked great! I set it up in the dark and you could really see the vacuum in the low light. if I do any winter camping it might work as a small shelter heater as well as a great stove. Many thanks

[@lumberjackinit6450]

Did you try it as a heater?

[@cannphotography4139]

If you get a bi-metal hole saw - the type used to put door knobs into doors - they'll buzz right through 'em. Thanks for this post, by the way! Very clean build.

[@Akademee]

Usually the insulation around the stack is a bit better than rocks, usually some sort of perlite and clay slip blend. Thats a little more complex for a hobo stove of course, but the insulated stack is where the magic of a rocket mass heater happens. Since that solidifies, you can turn out the ash no problem. The taller the insulated stack, the better the mass heat conversion is.

[@susanp.collins7834]

I'm clueless. Are you saying that a perlite and clay slip blend will melt and solidify - like fireclay? Perlite you can get a garden centre, can't you? And a potter could supply the clay slip or can you make your own if you have access to clay (I do). Can you give a ratio?

[@anim8torfiddler871]

Beautiful work. I have tried this several times. Cutting a round hole in the side of a Cylindrical Paint can is a REAL CHALLENGE. You show a nice solution. Thanks.

[@desertsun02]

hi and thank you! yes, it would be difficult to cut a round hole in the big can (especially a round hole of the exact size needed to hold the small can tightly). but doing it like i did allows for an 'adjustable size' hole in the big can. the little points of metal that are left over from the drilling grab and hold the small can very tightly. those points can be pushed in a little or straitened a little (as needed) to get the small 'fuel feed' can to fit perfectly.

Great! nice to have a movable stove when camping. You can cook a meal away from rain and sun under a tarp. Uses wood effciently too. The rocks/sand hold heat for nice simmering I imagine...

[@steveo8827]

Well made video. Easy to follow instructions. Great job. I do have a suggestion. When cutting the inside can, you said the hardest part is getting the cut started past the lip of the can. If you take a can opener and turn it sideways, you'll cut the entire lip off rather than just the lid, but be careful as the edge is extremely sharp.

[@FireplugKLR]

Steve O They also have can openers that will do just what you mentioned, but without the sharp edge. It should work perfect.

[@tarsemsingh3948]

Best idea for poors economically.you are great , brother.Thanks.

[@mrsillywalk]

Fill the can with sand and use the hole bit to drill all of the way through. The sand keeps the can from collapsing when the drill is pressed against it.

[@oldtimerlee8820]

mrsillywalk Another is to fill the can about 1/2- 3/4 full of water & then freeze solid.

[@megadeathx]

+Oldtimer Lee Water expands, it could burst the container. If you do this, turn the can sideways and drill the half that's frozen to that side of the container.

[@BlazingLightSword]

+megadeathx 1/2- 3/4 full like Oldtimer Lee said won't burst it, or even slightly bend/distort the can really

[@unbalancedredneck5778]

One small mod I made was to tilt the inlet up 30 deg to use gravity in my favor. Works great, thanks for the idea.

[@EddyKorgo]

Jerry Ohmer isnt 30 deg bit much? i thought inlet was purely for air income like in jet engine. so it burns better

[@unbalancedredneck5778]

The 30 deg is not for air. It allows for gravity to feed fuel for longer burns. As the old fuel turns to ash it allows for unburned fuel to fall into its place.

[@Not_An_Alien]

That's what I was thinking I would do.

[@meckleboy]

Do you think making a chimney would make this safer for indoor use on a shed? I was thinking a flexible metal pipe and vent it through a window(make a sheet metal square same size as shed window take out window and replace with sheet metal then vent up a rigid stack? Maybe put cement board hearth pad and wall backing? Think it could work? I may try

I am not sure if you're going to read this or not but I wanted to say, "thanks!" I made the Rocket Stove from the directions you gave me. I just finished it this afternoon.

[@peanutdust1053]

Sorry for asking this question as it's over 7 months. Did you use a 5 litre (1 gallon) can for the outside, thanks.

[@patrickpurcell3]

Good stuff. I've been using something similar for years. Because I like to build my own furniture and bee hives, I have lots of wood shavings and saw dust. So instead of filling the outer sides with sand and gravel, I pack in my saw dust and or shavings and light that with a piece of paper. Beware the can will get hot enough to burn a floor so it needs to be set-up on stones or something fire-retardant. The inner cans are used for a mould to create a tunnel / chimney. A four litre / one gallon can of saw dust with give a good even heat for about an hour, so more cheese sandwiches please.

Good Job!! .... one small detail... Try to put a flat platform, like a metal sliver in your feeding can... there is videos on the tube that shows the concept of fuel and air mix. Great looking stove and happy cooking! Peace

[@AndrewJamesRiemer]

You should put some holes along the base of the outer can, above the sand line. The heat that builds in the outer chamber would cause air to be drawn in, adding to the upward flow parallel to the burn chamber. Not sure how much the gravel will impede that flow, though (most I've seen leave the air space).

[@sapphiresennelier2319]

Which attachment would you use?

[@aarde7036]

For insulation I mixed self-drying clay with shellsand and a spoonfull sugar, after the first burn this became rock-solid so easier to transport and throw out ashes. I also took a stainless steel drinking straw, cut into pieces and made airflow-holes at the bottom, drilled through both cans. Works perfect! Oh, and instead of making an arch on the inner can I drilled a whole cirkel in that can too. Now it is easy to take it along camping, I take the front can out and stack it inside the stove.

[@jeffcorbin9967]

I love it! I have seen many different versions on how to do it and yours is one of the easiest. I assume that the paint can has never been used, it looked like that to me. I have a dremel and I think that would work a bit better in cutting the can. Cleaning it out would be easy once the coals are no longer hot.I have a wooden spatula that I use for cooking and that would be great to clean it out.

[@firthmirth4177]

Wow ... great ideas from all. I like the ice or sand trick to let you drill all the way through. Hole saws can get grabby though, and cause a little two-step quicky on the ol' wrist. Another idea is to use the hole saw to 'mark' the circle, then use a jig saw with a fine-toothed blade to cut out the circle.

[@CharlesEakins]

You need a tray in the inlet that lets air in under the wood. You'll get a hotter fire.

[@timothyayers5840]

For really good insulation use plaster of paris, pearllite and sand. Built a large scale stove of stainless with a vented lid along the same premiss. Can use either wood or charcoal.

[@saracowgill2144]

I really like the easy part and the handle. I just wonder how to clean it out without spilling the sand and gravel. Plus I think of the sand and gravel as thermal mass rather than insulation-- because once you heat it up, it should stay warm, and wouldn't it be nice if you cook quickly outside, then carry the nonflammable hot rock inside to cut the chill?

[@EddyKorgo]

Sara Cowgill cut out the hole in cans cover, so it covers the channel with sand so u can flip it up side down without spilling. This way the cover can be permanently in place and you can keep cooking

[@SS-cv6lq]

***** Mine stays pretty clean without washing it. Everything dumps right out and a quick pass with a bottle brush or similar tool works great without getting it wet.

[@irispopa4722]

+Sara Cowgill take plastic wrap, wrap the can securely, once everything is cold, ofc, then flip it upside down. once you get the sand and the gravel out, remove the foil and flip it again to take the ashes out :)

[@mirkograveho1388]

+Sara Cowgill maybe build one with concrete, that way you can simply tip it over and it'll stay built

[@MrSheckstr]

Sara Cowgill if the paint can comes with a lid, draw a circle the size of the can, cut several diameters inside that circle and bend the wedges down into the can. Pound that lid on good and right and you're set

[@tomi-henriknurminen184]

***** So you are using sand etc. just to support the stove and not to insulate the burning chamber. Try to come up with sturdier structure and forget the sand, you'll get better stove (air is much better insulator than sand..). Just a metal tube with grid in bottom will do the trick. No need to tinker, Weber can sell it to you in competitive price.
