Firebox stoves

[Rollin]

I really&nbsp;didn't&nbsp;ask for anything from Santa, but he insisted and got me one of these stoves. I'm&nbsp;liking&nbsp;the idea of using it as a stove while&nbsp;boondocking. Anyone&nbsp;familiar&nbsp;with these?<br><br><br>&nbsp;<img rel="lightbox" src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/iy8nRL7AVG4/0.jpg" class="bbc_img"><br><br>http://foldingfirebox.com/

something to add into the mix...a nice way to boil water with kindling. I've had mine for about 3 seasons and it's fun and practical.<br><br><a href="http://www.kellykettleusa.com/KellyKettle" rel="nofollow">Kelly Kettle</a><br><br><img rel="lightbox" src="http://www.kellykettleusa.com/media...b8d27136e95/b/a/base_camp_stainless-50001.jpg" class="bbc_img">

This stove is the one I would like to have:<br><br>http://www.solostove.com/<br><br>This is the one I am making (today) since I don't want to spend what these other stoves cost for as little as I may use it...<br><br>http://www.backpacking.net/makegear/falk-woodstove/index.html<br><br>I love to play around with stoves...and while I would love to have one of each, I have to cool it...I recently sold four high end backpacking stoves on ebay and have two to go...And I have a half dozen or more alcohol stoves both commercial and ones I made myself.<br><br>I want one of these but they have really gone up in price. They are only worth about $10 ( several years ago you could but all you wanted at surplus stores) but selling for much more and a little hard to find...As the zeitgeist of fear mounts and people jump on the "prepper" wagon, they are buying up stuff like this as fast as they can.<br><br>http://www.amazon.com/Swiss-Army-Vo...r=8-1&amp;keywords=swiss+ranger+volcano+stove<br><br>And I just bought one like this on ebay to try in place of my little Mr. Heater in the van...I try to travel in the heat and stay home when it's cold so this should do the job.<br><br>http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-origo-heat-pal-5000-gloys-171027961<br><br>Fun stuff...stoves and heaters....<br><br><br>bri<br><br>edited to put in the Swiss ranger stove link..ooops

Here is one (It does not fold up) rocket stove made in our shop with metal laying around.<br>The only material I purchased was the perolite <br><br><img rel="lightbox" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nvUBNIZeWtw/UKAinjXuybI/AAAAAAAACHI/hz3qy7OHbOk/s320/P1012271.jpg" class="bbc_img"><br><br><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://roosterpheasant.blogspot.com/2012/11/rocket-stove-prototype.html" rel="nofollow"><span style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;">Link to blog post #1</span></a></span></span><br><br><img rel="lightbox" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uCelcBwRqro/UKRPdSc6TtI/AAAAAAAACKU/JB79dvfOpxw/s320/P1012286.jpg" class="bbc_img"><br><br><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://roosterpheasant.blogspot.com/2012/11/rocket-stove-cooking-test.html" rel="nofollow"><span style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;">Link to blog post #2</span></a></span></span><br><br><br>

I built a rocket type heater based on the rocket stove principle like the one you have built in your shop, it puts out good heat dont use a lot of wood to do it.

C_hasbeen<br><br>They are amazingly efficient, The only thing I do not like is the constant need to manually feed the sticks into the burn chamber.<br><br>I plan on building another one that will have the sticks feed in, in a vertical position, using a tee configuration at the bottom burn chamber, and a grate to hold the sticks off the bottom just a little.<br><br>I will try that one out and see how it works. That is how the mass heaters are set up.<br><br>Putz<br><br><br>

I used that folding cooker above alot for foil packet cooking. Really liked it. Traded it for a vargo titanium woodstove which was lighter and packed flat. Almost fainted when I saw the price on the amazon link, though. I paid MUCH less for a used one on ebay.

What I like about the vargo is that you can fit one of those triple wicked emergency candles in it in a pinch.
