What a great setup.

I will do a longer video with all the snowshoeing and so on...but for now...for your amusement!

You ask in the end where I'd rather be?
I've spent enough time in rain in the snow in tents not much different than that with a wood stove...that I'd rather be home in a warm, dry bed.
But maybe thats because I did it together with 8-10 smelly lads...

But, if I had to be out there in that...I'd be inside that tent, tucked up inside my jerven bag with a brew on before you could say "feather stick" :-)

No ground sheet or mat? I'd want something to sit or lie on.

Please show us more of your stove. I like stoves. :D

Silly me, I just needed to LOOK:

Yeah yeah, I hadn't got to that bit yet. Get stove going NOW!!!! :-)

I'm doing a longer edit of the vid I shot today, including the stove just roaring like a furnace!

It was hot in there in minutes...

"Girl Alone" - know what I mean? :-)

Yup, built a whole raised bed in there. Ultra cozy!

It is. And it does what is says on the tin.

I have been trying to get in touch with Tigoat for one of there box stoves but there not replying to my Emails.
With it being a cylinder can you still cook on it?

You can cook on it, with some care. Not great huge basins of glop... Or else of course, just pop a light long leg grill over the top of it.

Do you need something on the end of the flue to stop sparks landing on the tent and burning little holes..? I would like a wood burner in my lavvu, but have not put one in because its a lightweight nylon one and I would be scared of burning it.

You can get a spark arrester, but with such a long chimney, and also a damper right near the stove, I have never been worried.

The stove company should use you as a demonstrator :)
