Please note, I have yet to learn how to post the photos of the stove. Bear with me and they'll be up in a bit. Thanks.

A little research on the internet should bring up plans on how to build these very efficient cooking devices. Also research hobo stoves. This one was made from a few old cans, a little patience, and a razor knife. Yes, a stout razor knife will cut through the cans, but please be very careful. Took about a half hour to make this one, and no, I didn’t slip and cut myself. Whew.

The secret to its efficiency is the double-walled construction, which helps focus the heat within the container rather than letting it escape to the outside as in a conventional campfire. The fire chamber is the horizontal can which is place through both the external and internal heating chambers. It protrudes slightly into the inner chamber, and you can see the metal baffle sticking out of the front which holds the firewood. It burns sticks, twigs and small branches. Ignite your twigs and place the burning portion on the baffle and slightly into the inner chamber. Once started my model burns quite well, and leaves an amazingly small amount of residue. As the wood burns, just push the sticks farther into the chamber. You can find on the internet a remarkable amount of engineering research as to the best air ratio and exit exhaust percentages for max efficiency. Uses a small amount of fuel for the cooking done. Very efficient, light, and portable. The ring in the last photo shows a technique for raising the cooking pot high enough so that the cooking gases and smoke can escape..
