Homemade wood burning camp stove.
July 6, 2010 Camping Propane Stoves
Wood burning camp stove made out of an empty 1kg coffee can.It costs next to nothing, pretty easy to make, burns almost anything you can find in the woods (dry grass, small twigs, pine cones, etc..). The legs and the support/grill rods are removable for storage and transportation. It works great and gets a litre of water to a rolling boil in about 4-8 minutes. It depends on the fuel and on water, (and /or) air temperature and such.

how long wud it take to cook a tin of baked beans or other tinned goods?
Probably less than boiling a pot of water. (see the info on the side)
i made my own hobo stove but i changed it a little n made it my own, i myt do a video to show you
I am looking forward to it!
Very nice! I like the siimple design and it is a whole lot more efficient on fuel than a normal camp fore. I live in the desert, little water and very little wood to burn. Sweet little stove! 5/5
Made one out of a 5L hene keg! Thats a sweet, heavy gauge piece of steel thats a great donor can for this stuff!
It isn’t a new idea by all means. Just an old idea revisited.
Did someone say, it was new…?
I love the reversible idea! I have been fooling about with some hobo stoves for a little while now and I am getting ready to take ALL the good ideas I have found and put them into 1 ultimate stove idea. I will be incorporating your reverse heater.
for now i have a basic vid that i will put as a response.
great stove.. gonna give it a try..
where did u get the song?? i love it but i cant get it anywhere?!!
Cut your hole in teh side with the coffee still insdie .. and pour into a resealable container .. top and bottom stay on, and your fuel hole is made … now make air vents and away you go.
nice job switch-
lol i got a small tea candle, got toothpicks, and the bottom metal thing i stabbed it with toothpicks and positioned it over the candle flame then i made a VERY small amount of hot chocolate. i am not a hobo. actually im in a 2 story house with a pool. but i was really bored so i did it and i cant beleive it worked! lol ill make a video mabye.
