Lovely stove, you did a very good job of rolling the stovepipe for the first time, very neat! On my Seek Outside Cub Stove I use the round base weld nuts on the stove top because they fit almost flush to the cooktop allowing greater surface area to be used in place of the wing nuts. I bought a spare stove base panel to use as a snow platform and just replaced the stove legs with titanium threaded rod (allthread) to make the thing even lighter. Amongst other modifications is a piece of stove door glass sized to replace the standard sliding door to allow a view of the fire dance. Your family will hugely enjoy having a tent stove, and it'll encourage them to camp more in colder weather. Thank you for sharing your lovely video.

[@OneclickOutside]

Very nice! Is there a "magic number" regarding the stove pipe length? Or just whatever gets it away from the tent?

[@BackcountryProfessor]

Seek Outside helps with that part, based on the model of the shelter. You do want a decent distance above the fabric.

[@andrewc.boatman7404]

where'd you get that hat, or what brand is it?

[@whileysea]

Great Video. What brand is your tent?

[@TipiWalter]

What is the lifespan of your stove pipe? Like after it gets red hot, or it gets wet, creosote buildup (if any)? Does the pipe "burn out" after a certain amount of time???

[@BackcountryProfessor]

Great questions. Because it's not a full-time shelter, the stove and pipe are taken apart regularly, so creosote isn't a problem. It's titanium, so heat isn't an issue. I keep it in the bag that it came with, so moisture is also a non-issue. So far, zero problems. It's a rad stove and shelter, all around.

[@muleyscousin6258]

QUESTION: WHY did you put the stovepipe INSIDE the sleeve coming out of the stove ? I would think you would want it outside that sleeve, to prevent any smoke from leaking into the tent. The music is too loud to hear your voice, so anything you said while the music was playing was not comprehended. Other than that, it's a good video.

[@BackcountryProfessor]

Great question! I tried it inside, at first, but now I put the stove pipe over the jack (as you mentioned).

[@muleyscousin6258]

@@BackcountryProfessor The only reason to put the stovepipe INSIDE the sleeve would be to keep creosote from leaking onto the top of your stove, if you're burning green wood, or wood that has a lot of sap, rosin, tar, or turpentine that's steaming out of the wood and sticking to the chimney, and then melting and running down the inside of that pipe.

[@breakit46]

Awesome stove, must have. What size pipe is yours?

[@BackcountryProfessor]

8 ft.

[@breakit46]

Backcountry Professor Thanks Sir. All the best.

[@Upsdriver234]

What was that you put in the stove for such a quick lit?

[@BackcountryProfessor]

Birch bark

[@BackcountryProfessor]

I just re-watched this, and NO! It's not birch bark. I prepare cotton balls, rolled in petroleum jelly, and wrapped in aluminum foil. They last about a year (soaked), and after that they're pretty dried out. They still work, but don't take a spark as easily (unless from a lighter).

[@pamtnman1515]

did you fit the stove pipe into or over the damper insert?

[@BackcountryProfessor]

The first time (here) I put it inside, which is not preferable. It's meant to be on the outside to form a better seal and path for the smoke to continue out the chimney.

[@pamtnman1515]

Backcountry Professor thank you, that is what I concluded after experimenting myself. Wish their instructions just flat out said it

[@robfred2713]

@@BackcountryProfessor There are those that say you did it correctly in the event there is creosote in your wood such that it would drip back down on the inside of the pipe rather than the outside of the pipe and make a mess. But burning dry wood I agree with on the outside.
