DiY Rocket Stove

Post by goara »

I am looking at making a rocket stove, I have seen a few different videos online where they are made from food tins. Just looking to see if anyone has any advice or help they would be willing to give. It will be for camping so it would have to be light. This is the video I saw.

The only thing i know about rocket stoves, is that they are heavy because to be a good one you tend to have to fill them with some sort of sand!

i have tried these, they are very good and since making it we have tried a few bought ones and apart from the looks they work just as well, so its well worth a go, they can also burt various things and you can use fuel blocks or a meths burner with it so is more versitile. :ugeek:
