Not to get your hopes up(yet!) but I'll be starting on my ammo box wood stove this month. Right now I'm gathering parts which I'll provide a list for when I know what I'm using. In the mean time I didn't want to keep this source for small diameter stove pipe all to myself so if you are also considering a wood stove using 3" pipe, here's an inexpensive resource:

Please keep in mind that what I am building I am considering a one season use only/high maintenance item. I do not know how long it will last(especially using cheap stove pipe), how much heat it will put out or how much wood I'll need and while I'm not putting a lot of money into it I am keeping safety in mind. It's high maintenance because I'm assuming I'll have to clean out the stove pipe about once a week. If it survives a season of use and kept us warm I met my goals with it. If it's still useful after a season then I consider that extra credit.
I really want to build this one or similar to it but without the rocket part:
I haven't been able to figure out how he has the secondary air intake configured inside of there. If he gets enough requests(14 more!) he'll make a build video on an improved version of it.
