In this video, part two in my mini series on homemade wood burning stoves, I am making a big twig stove from two old beer cans. This design is efficient, lightweight and easily packable as it is made to roll up and fit in a billy can or cooking pot.
Although I use power tools and bench tools, this could easily be made using a few simple hand tools and the materials are recycled or inexpensive to buy.
Making your own gear is always fun and the finished product will give you great sense of enjoyment and satisfaction - have a go and make a stove of your own.
Part three coming up soon.
I hope you enjoy the video, thanks for watching!
