I am absolutely speechless watching this. I'm sure, like most, I found this looking for a DIY alcohol stove tutorial. This isn't DIY, this is a behind-the-scenes look at artisan craftsmanship at its finest. I was mesmerized at the attention to detail and care, even knowing there isn't a remote possibility that I could ever reproduce any of this. Truly a pleasure to watch though.
The moment i saw the stove, i thought: this can't possibly be homemade. But when i saw you making it, i was amazed. Never saw anything like your craftmanship in my life. Great respect to you
I am a product designer and i would like to also say how beautiful your design is! While watching i was completely taken in by your attention to detail thank you for your video
Absolutely great craftsmanship! Congratulations! Techs: The fuel will be decisive. The high outside wall might act as a permanent "simmer ring" with ethanol. Shape of burner etc. is therefore crucial. Note the small size of can - not a standard 330 or 500ml can. As far as I could read, it's a 150ml can - we barely get them here. Maybe I would have to check the prosecco-shelves - which would make a pretty expensive stove and a rather dizzy craftsman :-). Did you do a version with a standard 330ml or 500ml can, too? what about the exact measurements there?
I'm sorry, it was not sold at Amazon.com. It's "NT Circle Cutter C-700GP". As an alternative I recommend the "OLFA 9911 CMP-1 Compass Circle Cutter". It is not possible to wearing Plastic Blade, but you can open a round hole in the can with a normal blade,
I am very happy this video has seemed to help you you. I I saw your video earlier.Your pot stand is wonderful too. There are advantages that height adjustment is possible, and that is a separate formula. I also reference to your pot stand . Thank you.
Thanks for watching. The surface of this drink can is UV-printed. UV-printing cannot be melted although acetone or MEK can melt paint. As far as I know, it is only strong sulfuric acid that can remove this printing, but it is difficult to get it.
these are among the best step by step instructions I have seen on youtube. congrats! the idea with masking tape on the wire is excellent. makes things easier. I use similar pot stand, but I attach them to a perforated tape. this way, I can use the pot stand with many different stoves. I will try to reproduce your brackets. thank you, Chris
Great work and nice craftsmanship. Not to take away from your build but it should be pointed out, if it hasn't been already; that unfortunately the stainless steel legs and aluminum leg supports don't mix well material wise. You'll find the leg supports eaten through in a very short time unless you use some sort of high temp insulator between the two metals. The insulating jacket from a similar guage wire used for high temp applications would work for this purpose is one option that comes to.mind. Again, nice build and thanks for sharing.
Excellent construction video, nice design and a well laid out process. I'm curious about how much fuel it can hold, how long it can burn and how quickly it will boil a volume of water. Have you experimented with these variables yet? I've tried several different designs and find some better than others, though this one certainly seems promising.
Nice video, Adam. Quick question: What size of mess tin are you demonstrating there, and-when it’s broken down-will the Trangia Triangle fit inside your mess kit? Thanks!
Nice instructional video. I truly appreciate your application of creativity and technical expertise. The result is very impressive. You are a true craftsman as evidenced by your construction technique, and your work has advanced the utility of this cooking option for various hikers, bikers, and backcountry campers. Thank you for passion, and best wishes for your future efforts.
Haha, this is utterly ridiculous! The whole idea of a soda can stove is to go cheap and easy, you use several hundred dollars worth of tools and supplies to make a complicated device that could otherwise be done as well in seconds.
Please try to search for "OLFA 5014 PB-800 Plastic / Laminate Blades" at amazon.com. I am using it by fixing to the wood block with a screw. Please enjoy DIY :)
Thanks for watching. Please refer to the video below for boiling time and fuel consumption. "Alcohol Stove - FishEye Stove Ver.2.0" The answer to your question is included in this video. Fuel capacity of this stove is 30ml, but you can increase the capacity if you make taller.
Great videos! What type of fuel do you use to get these blue flames? Mine typically burn yellow and I just don‘t know how to change it to blue!? I have tried smaller holes, larger holes, other angles and nothings seems to help
Far out! Very impressive design and fabrication! I would be afraid to take it camping for fear that I might scratch it. I would rather impress a pretty woman with such a fine work of art. I may just show her this video and say it's me and that I sold it for a millon dollars but owed that much in back child support so can she buy dinner?
Your videos are so helpful for my DIY learning. Can you please tell me the name of the cutter that you used to cut the can's bottom off at 1:45 minute of your video?
Beautiful stove and excellent step-by-step instructions. Just wandering if you have tried any solvents to remove the paint from the can such as aceton or MEK.
