Nice concept of forming the bottles and the double curtain by supplying air to the inside area also!
I can't really get most of the aluminum bottles in this area other than some hair product smaller ones and larger diameter hiking water bottles,don't know why ...Being in construction and having lots of pvc and abs plastic pipe fittings,I'll have to give that a try..Thanx!

As I've said in the past..I'm not against priming stoves,especially if they make an improvement in the burn...

One more thing..It seems feasible to burn the inner chamber only..say as a "simmer mode"..without fuel in the outer chamber..dual mode stove.I prefer stoves that have some kind of adjustable burn,two stage,high/low..not only burn and fry...

JT, that is very innovative. A job well done and an interesting way to make a die to form the stove.

I have a 10 ton screw jack and a garage door header/floor...
Guess I have an arbor press...

I've used that method for straightening bent bumpers.....also the side jambs..anything that will jack and compress something between two pretty well fixed objects and a hunk of 4x4 is all that is needed..say an expanding car jack..your wife won't mind..besides she uses AAA right?...

Really, really creative especially the forming die/punch. It's amazing how the aluminum can form in such a way. who would have thought it. Very nice stove "just tinkering" Thanks for entering it.

Yeah, and we have a good death and dismemberment policy.

Is that "arm and leg" dismemberment?..or does your policy cover other appendages?

I saw the ring on your finger in the video..didn't notice if you had one in your nose..




Getting back on topic...I'll give the "arbor press" idea with your "die" idea a test some day soon.I want to try a similar stove idea for "dual burn" use.

Very cool stove. Gotta make me one of these.

The way I see it, the center vent not only provides internal priming but also an additional air source for the main burn.

You may want to add a thin layer of wicking material inside the primer cup. In really cold weather it will be much easier to light.

Nice design. You've got a knack.

[realityguy]

You guys never see the failures.

I know for a fact that you aren't alone there.. ..I've had my fair share of meltdowns and flops..along with everyone else on the site that builds stoves...
