You forgot the most important step: coating the can so it doesn't rust. They likely heated the can up and put some sort of oil on it so that there would be a carbon barrier between the can and the elements. When steel gets hot, it oxidizes more readily. They probably wiped the can with an oily rag in order to get the carbon layer. I'd imagine they probably burned something very sooty to coat the inside as well.

You've got me thinking. The British army in WW2 used to make bread ovens behind the lines involving some sort of metal container and turf/dirt etc. British water and fuel containers were just larger versions of the can you have there before they discovered Jerry cans so this sort of can would have been readily available. I wonder if their inspiration was the 1930s Hobo's? Britain had it's own Hobo's during the Depression. Never let a good idea go to waste! Thank you for the video!!!

My theory on why it tastes better is because we are supposed to cook with fire outdoors. Fresh vegetables right out of the garden, slow roasted in a covered pan over a fire as the side will make a bologna sandwich taste almost as good as steak. Let alone freshly caught fish. We are meant to have time outdoors. Which is why we can see the beauty in nature.

My grandparents lived next to the tracks in a small rural Alabama town. They told me stories of hobos who would stop by and my grandparents would feed them dinner, or whatever. There were regulars that came by once or twice a year, and my grandparents house was considered a “safe place” for them, and they would tell the others. They had another name for the “safe space”, but it escapes me. This was important because they were looked down upon in such a town, and it was quite dangerous to go through towns like this. I heard some great stories, and even saw quite a few things the hobos would bring in gratitude when they came back through. Never heard a bad story about them, but there were one or two who made my grandparents a bit nervous, but nothing ever happened. They looked back fondly on this time, as they met a lot of great ppl.

Dear Chocoloco, you & I are almost neighbors. I live less than 1 hour away in Cherokee County on the backwaters of the Chattooga River. In my earlier years I bowhunted the Chocolocco WMA. Merry Christmas. I grew up near one of the largest RR yards in north Alabama before taking to the country & the mountains. As teen-agers, our church youth group would have Hobo Parties! Hope that you & I can ennjoy the have the privilege of getting personally acquainted. We could show James some interesting former Hobo Routes in ALabama, like the Chief Ladiga Trail that is near both our areas. As a young child, during WWII, I rode on the passenger trains from WWII military bases in VA & NC to Alabama where the old railroad track has since been converted into a hiking & biking trail. It would be interesting to know the stories shared by hobos in the 1930s & 1940s. One of my great grandfather's brothers worked on the railraid most of his life. Their dad fought in the Civil War. 'Hope that your Christmas season will be very blessed. The Old Preacher
@WayPointSurvival11 ай бұрын
That's fascinating! I believe there was a lot of negative publicity purposely put out by the railroad barons and the newspapers that truly affected public sentiment. Of course, as in every sector of society, there were some bad apples. However, most of those folks were just down on their luck and looking for an honest day's work for an honest days wage. If you have any stories that you remember I would love to hear of them. You can contact me directly through www.waypointsurvival.com.

James, thank you for clarifying differences between the True Hobo & a Homeless Person. I've been privileged to have friends whose parents adapted to the Hobo Lifestyle duringbtheir years of itinerant work. When I was born in 1941, there were still Hoboes and Hobo Camps alonga network of railroad tracks. My understanding is that most of them were industrious, eager to find work, and were persons of integrity and valor. Your Hobo series is one of the most enjoyable, along with the 18th century living history videos. Thanks again for providing valuable lessons from various periods of history & all the fun DIY projects associated with the various lifestyles.

Unfortunately, I have noticed the same during my twelve years in the Philippines. Good metal cans are being replaced with plastic. That includes the round one-gallon/four-liter paint cans. We do agree that food cooked in the great outdoors is the best. We hired a boat in Pangasinan during the off-season. After touring the "Hundred Islands" heritage area we stopped off on a small island to spend the day. My family and our boat operator were the only folks there all day until we had visitors. Two local fishermen pulled in to ask if we would like fresh crabs. We said yes and the crabs were boiled in seawater on on the fishing boat and handed over to us. Yes, those crabs were some of the best I have eaten in the Philippines!

I suppose if we used the can on its side, so there is a larger cooking surface, using the spout (enlarged) as the wood hole, and making air holes on the bottom side opposite the spout, with a 'chimney hole' on the top, you would be able to add longer pieces of wood, and you could cook on the large surface of the can as well. The spout side wood hole can empty the ashes after it cools.

I made a hottent stove years ago out of one of these cans, used thick beer bottles as the chimney pipe works really well still!!✊️🔥✌️💚

To stabilize the can, you could bury the bottom in the dirt, not enough to block the air flow.

James, I was just thinking, a dangerous thing, I know. Have you ever seen the POW display at the A. F. Museum at Fairborn, Oh.? They show how captured soldiers would make lots of things to improve life behind the wire using cans and bits of wire.

Thanks for the vid. The hardest part of your project is finding those types of metal cans.
