How To Make A Wood Rocket Stove - Easy & Multi-Use!

[@MrBigCookieCrumble]

Just found this today, got yourself a new sub!

[@IntenseAngler]

Thanks my friend... the sub and support are truly appreciated! :)

[@carlbole2142]

Gonna try this over xmas with a 3" steel pipe at the inlet to see if I get a more intense heat, and better burn...Thanks for experiment 1 results..Nice!

[@MrJOHNEBOB]

I've made a few. They work great Tips: Drill the horizontal hole at a slight downward angle to meet the chimney hole. (use a cordless drill if in the woods) Put it out for future use by covering both holes. Let it burn down in the original upright position and it will burn completely on its own. Unseasoned (not green) logs take a while to get going but last longer that totally dried ones. Keep your beer and schnapps cold 😁

[@She_Tried_It]

Cool!!!!! If you go camping often you can just grab 3 or 4 logs and take them home with you drill and prepare them, store them in the garage or shed/ RV/camper/trunk, and take em with you next time you go.

[@IntenseAngler]

Thanks!! I'm very happy that you enjoyed this one my friend :) I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment... it really means a lot to me!

[@RIDDLE0MASTER]

John , it is so good to have you back here!

[@Campfirepiston]

That's one reason we missed you John. Excellent idea.

[@SaskFisher]

This is awesome!!! Im not even gonna go to work tomorrow ! Gonna go cut a log and do this!! Thanks!!

[@IntenseAngler]

Right on! I hope that you have an awesome time making this my friend! Definitely love to hear how it worked out for ya! Thanks for taking the time to watch and for leaving such a great comment by the way... it's very much appreciated!

[@lafemmejoli1]

So happy to see your face! I'm glad you're making videos again, your tips are really useful! I work for an outdoor outfitter and I am always giving my customers your tips!

[@gagehamilton2497]

I was all ready to make one of these from another video in 20 easy step's. Then I found you video. Thank you for being straight to the point.

[@05frosts]

Thanks for coming back John - count me in!

[@IntenseAngler]

+05frosts Definitely my pleasure for sure :) Thanks for sticking around my friend... can't tell ya how much I appreciate that!

[@IntenseAngler]

+complete angler (Completeangler) Hey Nate.. awesome hearing from you man! Really glad to hear that you're able to get out as much as possible and enjoy doing the things you love! All the best to you my friend... -John

[@liorelbaz]

Looks great and fun. I was reading some comments try to find the drill bit size is it bigger then 1” ? Thanks

[@IntenseAngler]

Thank you very much Lior. It's definitely a fun project to build (and use) for sure. To answer your question... the drill bit that I used here was a 1". I hope that helps. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment by the way... it's much appreciated my friend.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Great video John! I never knew it could be so easy. I'm making one of these for my Scout troop.

[@IntenseAngler]

+Survival On Purpose Thanks my Brother! Awesome that you're going to be doing this with the Scouts... would love to hear what they think of it :) Btw... really appreciate all that you do to get kids outdoors and instill a love & respect for nature in them... along with some good strong values. You rock my friend! :)

[@gale237]

That's the coolest rocket stove I have seen yet. Self fueling and all natural! "Count me in"

[@guns4funcajanajustin]

Nice rocket stove Jon! I will have to do one of these!

[@IntenseAngler]

+guns4funcajanajustin Thanks man! Awesome hearing from you btw... hope all's been well over your way! :)

[@oscaraberg1852]

[@janegray4273]

+IntenseAngler what a great idea .great video .

[@IntenseAngler]

+Jane Gray Thanks Jane :)

[@donatelladalmaso9246]

[@ramonmacias4202]

Good video I like how you offered more insights on what to do wit logs so they won’t just get thrown out after use

[@IntenseAngler]

Thank you very much my friend. I'm glad that you enjoyed the video. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and for leaving such positive feedback... it really means a lot.

[@danahan01]

Looks like a very good item for the prepper crowd. I'm gonna have to try this......

[@northboundcanadian]

Going to have to try this next campfire with the kids.

[@mobiltec]

Sort of the modern day version of the Swedish Stove where you split the log into four equal pieces. Love it John..

[@IntenseAngler]

+mobiltec Definitely. Gotta love the good ol' Swedish Torch/Stove... easy to make & works great. All the best my brother....

[@charleshollow5734]

So happy to have you posting again! count me in!

[@sosteve9113]

Count me in, nice cookstove for in a base camp for making breakfast and afterwards for the campfire in the evening

[@branpod]

Nice! I remember doing these as my grandfather

[@IntenseAngler]

Thanks Marshall! I hope that this brought back some good memories of spending time with your grandfather. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment by the way... it means a lot brother.

[@brunooka]

I would never imagine I would find a so fun use for the bunch of logs that was forgotten at my yard. Nice!!! Thanks!

[@PrimalOutdoors]

Definitely a great idea for a back yard get together, thanks for sharing. Jason

[@bigfootbyrd9119]

Hey mister, this is the best video on KZbin.

[@sarahpickering3456]

I really like your video John. You spoke clearly and explain how to make it down to a tee.. it is a awesome ideal and Im glad you shared it with the people that are watching.. "You can count me in for sure". Thank You Again..

[@WhoNoes]

I'll be trying this one this weekend. Count me in!

[@IntenseAngler]

+h20dvl Right on. Hope it works out great for ya!

[@fedicle]

Excellent video. Simple, clear and concise.

[@lxmzhg]

The only difficult part is to get the drilled holes aligned so that they meet.

[@susanflanagan840]

good to see you back filming !

[@timfronimos459]

Great video. My dad was a carpenter and we camped we always had his hand tools available.

[@snappa222]

Awesome idea.Count me in! Thanks for posting John.

[@The07gsxr1000]

Glad to have you back

[@IntenseAngler]

+BeatrCoupe Thanks my friend. Good to be back :)

[@scottackerman781]

Great directions! Our Scout Troop made these. We used cherry and had to use an industrial grade drill to bore the holes. Probably can use a "normal" drill with pine or a soft wood. At 1", the space is a little tight. To light, place a couple pieces of thin, dry kindling down the top hole. We use a long-neck wand lighter to light the kindling through the side hole. Airflow is very important! Do not put paper or anything else the blocks the air. Found works best with lots of air and turned the side hole into the wind. We used two this weekend at winter campout to keep water boiling, probably burned for about an hour, maybe more before we put them on the main fire. Just use three small rocks to set the pot on (Don't bother with the nails).

[@Flashahol]

I remembered this video from a while ago, just made one a couple of days ago and I came back for a refresher on how to start it. Can't wait for the weekend....

[@jgbsweeper7325]

What a great idea. I think I'll keep a few of these prepared and ready for use at my home fire pit. Thanks for sharing and count me in. And welcome back !

[@dcordry]

Awesome idea John! The flame shooting out of that log certainly deserves the name of rocket stove. Thanks for sharing with us. Be safe out there on the trail, my friend. - Dee

[@IntenseAngler]

+Multi-Tool School Thanks Dee, my ol' friend :) I agree... this thing sure does throw out a flame doesn't it! Hope all's been well with you buddy... -John

[@cadenomer5891]

Thank you for all of your videos!!!! Count me in!

[@IntenseAngler]

+Caden Omer My pleasure Caden :) Thanks for taking the time to watch them, comment, and support the channel here... it's very much appreciated my friend! Best of luck btw! -John

[@kgurney]

So glad to see you posting videos again, John! Count me in.

[@dianebassett1930]

Does the wood have to be well dried first?

[@IntenseAngler]

Definitely. Well dried wood is crucial in allowing this stove/fire torch to burn at it's optimal level. I hope that helps....

[@thetruckerskitchen772]

Truly inventive way to have a nice conversation piece for outings. Count me in!

[@jessicamshannon]

SUCH a relaxing voice. It makes me feel like I'm drinking coco in a nice warm cabin just listening.

[@IntenseAngler]

+jessicamshannon Thanks so much for the kind and generous compliment Jessica. Speaking of a cup of coco and a nice warm cabin... that sure sounds good right now :) -John

[@phyllismulkey3778]

what a great idea im going to try it ,but in the woods with a cordless drill ,i just love being in the woods thank you "Count me in "

[@drumavenger83]

make a few of these before you go out on a weekend excursion and you would be set! pretty great set up!

[@simontaylor8603]

Great tip - looks very effective - can't wait to try it out once we dry out in the UK!! "Count me in"

[@jaytrock3217]

Great video. I actually thought of doing that before. Glad someone took the time to do it and show it working.

[@cspvisualsschmidt1657]

What a friendly dude. Nice idea.

[@KrisKasprzak]

Brilliant! I'm guessing you can cap the top or bottom hole to smother the fire--hence reusing the log?

[@marcofico1]

Good job John! Count me in.

[@CrankyBubushka]

Awesome. Gotta try this in the back yard.

[@julies1ify]

These things are so cool ! I use mine for a portable & safe fire place, I can sit it on my wood deck then move it somewhere else. When I show others, they are amazed. I guess small minds dont take much to entertain, lol

[@farmerrooster]

looks like a fun project, count me in

[@boatkrazy8575]

Great idea! We're going to try making one of these tonight!

[@IntenseAngler]

Boat Krazy Thanks! Hope it worked out great for ya :) Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment btw... it's much appreciated!

[@boatkrazy8575]

Well, we tried, and failed. The wood we tried doing it wasn't fresh and not seasoned, and a gallon of gasoline wouldn't have set it on fire! We're not detoured, and will try again.

[@FEST1964]

Making coffee and a bird house at the same time very clever, very clever Love it .

[@blt4life112]

I was looking for "how to burn out a tree stump when I stumbled on this. After watching, I made one with the 3' tree stump in the back yard. Set up my bbq next to it. Awesome.

[@oldtimerlee8820]

Great Idea! Easy to do with electricity and not much harder when it's not available. Maybe just more time consuming, depending on which pre-grid option is used to get the intersecting hole. Not only is it functional, useful, it's a great conversation piece for family gatherings and other "enjoy the outdoors" type gatherings. Count me in.

[@NavigatingwithNafe]

thanks for that tip John. Will be heading to Gatlinburg in October with the uncle, and will definitely put that to use! 👍

[@PaCampingDad]

Neat variation on the Swedish Fire Log. Thanks John. Count me in

[@IntenseAngler]

+PaCampingDad Thanks my friend. Always great hearing from you by the way. All the best to you and yours!

[@billb.6773]

Wow! How simple was that!!

[@mudtoa]

Great timing, you just helped me with my holiday shopping. They will make great hand made gifts!

[@riley54976]

Nice idea! Good to see you back. Count me in.

[@technochocolate123]

This was a great one! Hopefully we'll get to try it soon. Count me in.

[@IntenseAngler]

+Emily Sires Thanks Emily! Would love to hear how it works out for you if you get the chance :) All the best... -John

[@Suuuperelaxed]

This guy seems like a great person

[@colonelchimp]

good to see you back with the vids john, just a tip here, a lot of people are starting to carry the scotch eye auger wood bit, which is of course a hand turned bit so as long as you had one of those there is no reason why you couldnt make this stove way off in the boonies, or failing that, you could make the swedish log stove type by splitting the wood into 4 and putting the log back together, then lighting the fire between the relocated sections, cheers, dave

[@maatzylon]

Great to see you back in the game again! Count me in

[@ARaskyOutdoors]

good sharing bro..i am going to do this soon...thanks for sharing bro!

[@IntenseAngler]

You're welcome brother! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment... it's much appreciated!

[@magicjones2431]

Loved it John we used them all the time.. note a great off of a gas cooking stove works great... Just don't let Mom know you took it....

[@goldenhorshoe4814]

Smart idea I’ll keep this in mind for a stove in a pinch when I’m doing back yard cooking

[@BlinkensteinsMicky]

Awesome! Great idea and great Video. Thanks for showing.Greetings from Germany,Micky

[@phdyoutubedegree1939]

i watch all these outdoor vids on how to survive and introducing myself to bushcraft tools. I live in the city and can't use any of it. I have an awesome collection of variety of camping tools brand new. lol

[@whytho-s4y]

Same for me too, I finally got my drivers licence and a car last year so heading out to the mountains tomorrow for a few beers and a rocket stove 🙂

[@joeproctor2216]

Saw this yesterday afternoon...that evening, the kids and I were trying it out. Worked great, Thanks for the vid!

[@naturecallsoutdoors]

Very cool. I will need to bring my cordless next time. "Count me In"

[@TWiGsADV707]

[@jeremycoones5825]

Thanks for the tip! I'm going to try this soon. It looks like a great way to use the tree that fell down in my back yard. Count me in.

[@CampfireTalk]

This is one of those deals I've seen done, but never tried (same with a Swedish torch). Your simple step-by-step format is motivating me to go out and burn one now! : )

[@IntenseAngler]

+CampfireTalk Glad to hear that I could help light a fire under ya buddy ;)

[@matt4270]

Good stuff John! This really works well with pine due to the high resin content. Count me in!

[@IntenseAngler]

+matt4270 Thanks Matt... much appreciated!

[@superswagman5973]

Thanks for the video! as usual very educational. Count me in!

[@GatorLife57]

Thumbs up !ENJOY....THE SIMPLE LIFE

[@destan5568]

Very cool video John! I'll definitely try this.

[@VaughanCole]

nice, that works great. Be trying that next trip out, thanks for sharing

[@3110mikey]

Brilliant idea, we're going camping at weekend, just sourced myself a couple of logs, I'm going to drill them out before we leave, saves messing while we're there!

[@IntenseAngler]

Thanks! That's a great idea on prepping the logs before you leave... will definitely make it nice to have them all ready to go once you get to camp. I hope that you have an awesome time on your trip my friend! I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment by the way... means a lot!

[@daltonvickers7977]

I will have to try that. Cool idea. Thanks
