I was able to complete a little project & video today. :cool:
Over the last few months I've been seriously considering buying a Bushbuddy or Bushcooker, but they're a lot of money, so I thought I'd have a go at making one myself. As a first attempt it's not bad, but naturally there are things I will do differently on the next one. You live & learn as they say. ;)
Here's how I did it. I hope you like it. ;)

Cheers Paul.
It boiled a cup of water in minutes, much faster than my hobo stove. Sods law, the phone ran out of juice before the water went on. :rolleyes:

That is very good i like the way you made it, and filmed it, also it worked out a lot cheaper than my wood gasification stove that my Mrs got me for Xmas.

Great video, enjoy your new stove and at a big discount, Wish I could produce a video of that quality
I made one very similar and it burns the fuel to dust with little smoke, so cheap and light I made a new one and took it to Italy used it then dropped it in a bin before flying home (no dirt/smells in my suitcase)

Out of interest Paul, did you have chicken soup, tuna and mandarin segments for tea cooked on the stove?

It's a tiny investment in time. I'm sure I'll make a few more before I'm really happy anyway. But that's still only going to be another £4 Ha!
