Hope this helps out ty for the all the comments guys !
Perfectly demonstrated. 👏👏
Thanks for sharing your time and knowledge with us.
Atvb,
Steve. 👍👍
Ty for watching and commenting
I like the look of the stove going to invest in 1👍
It’s definitely worth it tbf
They are cracking little things 🙂🤘

I was thinking the same. It looked like it singed the ground underneath. I have seen people using either a few layers of foil, or a cheap soldering mat underneath, especially if you are going to use it on a table or something.
Thank you for the information how to use a stick wood burning stove , great idea, great video
Glad to help and glad you enjoyed
The 3 pot stand legs: flip them from the 'open' position inwards 90° so that the flat edge on the side is horizontal. You can then sit smaller pots on top, without the precarious balancing act! It also lifts the pot higher so that it can't smother the flames👍
Interesting.
Agreed, 'top down' burns are pretty effective and give a longer burn. And, good move to make use of the burn from the onset. I see many let the wood burn down to coals before adding the cooking pot, thereby wasting a lot of heat and defeating the intent of a 'twig stove'.
However, under correction, using a 'top down' burn configuration in a specifically 'Wood Gasifier' Stove would to my knowledge, initially nullify the physics of the stove design intent which is to channel unburnt gas from the bottom of the burn chamber, up the hollow sides and back out at the top into the flames for re-ignition.
My understanding regarding 'Wood Gasifiers' is to feed them twigs / small fuel pieces to keep the burn base down low and thus allowing unburned wood gas to channel in, up and out again for .. re-, and thus complete ignition. A 'schlep' to some perhaps 🙄, But it is what it is .. the most economical, efficient and effective of the wood fuel.
I have a Stainless Steel 'Bushbox LF' Wood Stove. It is not a 'Gasifier' and I 'Twig, Swedish Fire Torch, Top Burn, Charcoal or Alcohol Burn' it depending on the type of cooking I have in mind and the 'Fire Hazard / Restrictions' at the time.
I could be completely wrong on this one .. but what I have seen and read up on the subject, appears to point towards the above-mentioned.
Thanks for the share .. some food for thought.
Until next time then, take care ..
Yes I think your correct to keep it going even longer definitely feed it twigs I just wanted to see how long one load of twigs would last as I had a comment saying it didn’t last long enough however I think it last more that enough on one load and if you add more twigs/sticks it could essentially last forever also what alcohol would you suggest getting for fuel like is there a more efficient one that others or are they all the same ?
Yes, loading the stove up and using a top-down burn will definitely give a longer burn before having to 'top up' with fuel.
However, on a specifically-purposed 'wood gasifier', any burn at the top of the stovet nullifies the effect of not-yet-combusted 'wood gas' (aka, inter alia, 'smoke' created by the effect of incomplete combustion at the bottom of the burn chamber) being channelled up through the hollow inner sleeve, out the top for re-combustion where fresh air is available.
One can load up the stove to avoid the schlep of continually 'topping up' with twigs .. no problem. However then, the Wood Gas Stove no longer does what it is designed to do .. make the most efficient use of the minimum amount of fuel .. 'twigs' and such. Schlep, yes 🙄 .. but then, it is what it is 😊.
Alcohol Fuel? I'm South African, and back there, I used Methylated Spirits which is available at any Supermarket or Hardware Store. Those who 'chirp' about the 'sooting' .. apparently diluting the Meths (not 'Meth' 😏) with 10% water reduces this. Me? I've never bothered .. seeing the cleaning any sooting off the pot bottoms as par for the course.
Here in Switzerland, we use 'Brennsprit' (Burn Spirit) .. available also, at any Convenience Store.
In the UK? My Son lives in Lincolnshire and he (and I on visits) use Methylated Spirits. I believe that there are other .. 'rubbing' / isopropyl alcohol, etc. You would know better than I regarding.
Thanks for the information really appreciate it I’ve learnt so much since I started this UA-cam channel
I cook a lot outside and always light it from the bottom. Reason is simple, it doesn't take as long. I light it, go into the house, get my food and when I return I can directly start cooking. I don't need long burn time anyway, steak, sausages, stir fry or boiling water takes about 10..15 minutes. And if it really takes longer I can just drop in more wood.
Nice

You can use hand sanitizer as a fire starter. Wait for the stove to start gasifying more through the holes before putting a pot on top of the stove to avoid smoke and soot.
Cheers for the nod marra, you made a better vid than I would've on it 🤘🙂
I appreciate the comment mate really was so useful works way better now
@@WildJam. was made up to see the vid so soon, glad it's helped :-D 🤘
As you've seen it burns hotter which means less/no smoke and very little residue, white ash is good for cleaning pots up and making soap as well but be aware that wet ash is very caustic and WILL burn your skin if you don't wash it off sharpish.

lay the stove on its side when initially stacking the sticks in 😉
Campfires were so popular in Minecraft that they brought them into real life 🤯
Haha fr fr
I’m curious why the canteen(?) or the cup(?) shape looks like peanuts.
Is it better to transfer heat in that shape?

I’m glad you knew why I was wondering myself Ty for the information
@@thomasmusso1147 ty ty
