All the right parts came together to make up this combination stove. I made it with an aluminum bottle "Snapple Energy" drink. A can from a can of chicken in water. A piece of fiberglass wick. I JB welded the can to the bottom of the bottle, inserted the wick into the can, poured in 2 cups of water,...

Had to do a test to satisfy my curiosity about the ability of 3 different materials that have been said to be used as wick materials. Did this test today to clarify in my mind the capillary action of the three materials. Material that does'nt get consumed when used as a wick. Steel wool will burn wh...

Was just kidding about being a gassifier Made this one from a vegetable steamer. (stainless steel)(second hand store) fits nicely inside a 6 inch diameter cake pan(aluminum) that is the cook pot.

I had recently made a post some where that I had tried olive oil with a large wick and it burned dirty/sooty. This one has small flames and burns clean. Boiled 2 cups of water in 19 1/2 min.

Here is my version of a unidirectional lantern , stove and torch combination. It's bright enough for me to see and identify objects 40 to 50 feet away in the dark of night. It is held in the hand or can be placed on a flat surface using the two leg screws on the front end. Uses a micro torch made by...

The one on the right is madeout of a chafing fuel can. Has a tube inserted that reaches to the bottom of the can. Tube is permanently affixed. Has holes in the tube at it's base and at it's top. Allows fuel to enter can at bottom and top holes allow vapor to escape. The wick in the center is spring ...
