    • Snoppy_First yeah, if you'r camping, forgot the stove by Snoppy_First, 1190774825 Report sent Spam Reply [+24] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

      , most probably, you forgot the FUEL as well...

    • Artsyficial yeah, but by Artsyficial, 1190803448 Report sent Spam Reply [+18] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

      maybe you didn't forget the 151!!

    • NK5 Ahh, yess by NK5, 1190809937 Report sent Spam Reply [+15] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

      Everclear works very well, burns clean, and lasts a good time.

      Just don't drink any before trying to make the stove or it will end up looking like something that fell off a car on the freeway!

      ..utility knife, coat hangar, fiberglass and thumb tack.

      I always forget those.

    • babblin5 Totally Agree! by babblin5, 1190782101 Report sent Spam Reply [+12] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

      Nice idea and very well presented. EXCELLENT! 90% Isopropyl alchohol works great too ( already made one =) or probably Everclear, although I haven't tried that yet, cause I'd probably wind up drinking it...

    • enormous nose Good but ! by enormous nose, 1191076525 Report sent Spam Reply [+15] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

      What about the possibility of fuel leakage from that home made stove? Also,what about the vailidity and durability of the fiberglass? Finaly,what about security of that stove ?

    • MadOzZy OUCH!! by MadOzZy, 1198594820 Report sent Spam Reply [+1] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

      I made this stove EXACTLY as you told me but ended up slicing my arm off with the utility blade!!! Then when i tried to preheat the stove it blew up taking my other arm off!!!!! So i watched the video again and tried it again but this time blew both my fucking legs off !!!!!! 5 STARS

      It works surprisingly well.

      There are other designs out there, but this one is by far the easiest to make.

  • ZackScott Heet! by ZackScott, 1190756393 Report sent Spam Reply [+39] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

    Just mix the Heet into the Soda, drink it, and your insides are burned! No need to cook anything.

    if your cans all have puncture holes down near the bottom? All of mine seem to have those. The next time I need to boil filthy water in a soda bottle, I'll know how to heat it up. Thanks!

    • NK5 Exactly! by NK5, 1190766420 Report sent Spam Reply [+26] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

      They are very portable, rugged, and weigh next to nothing.

  • RisqKC denatured alcohol works too by RisqKC, 1190772355 Report sent Spam Reply [+24] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

    fyi

    • NK5 Yes! by NK5, 1190774274 Report sent Spam Reply [+14] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

      It does. It actually is more efficient, too It is a bit harder to find for some reason, though.

      You can find HEET (Methanol) at almost any gas station.

  • hazardus Everclear is better by hazardus, 1190771804 Report sent Spam Reply [+23] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

    That way you can get sloshed and have enough left for the stove

    • NK5 Yes it is by NK5, 1190774160 Report sent Spam Reply [+14] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

      Thanks for that.

      Everclear is expensive, but burns well and you can drink it.

    I made one of these back in college in my dorm. The shim really helps put the halves together

    • NK5 No kidding by NK5, 1190773566 Report sent Spam Reply [+15] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

      Even after stretching the bottom lip a little, I had to use the shim to put it together.
