    Nice workmanship, the details make the difference. Having the punched holes are important to getting air flow for combustion yet keeping the wind gusts out of the burner. A natural convection air current will develop as the heat of the burner draws cool air through the holes up passed the canister into the stove fuel- air mixing throat. Additionally a smaller diameter aluminum disk with punched perforations between the stove and canister could be added as a canister shield for warm windy environments so the canister does not get dangerously hot.

    I didn't know I needed this in my life. Grabbing a 6 pack and trying it out! Thanks greatly!

    Really enjoyed reusing something to make another. Bonus: You'll never mix that windscreen with anyone else's. Thanks for putting this how-to out there and I'm going to enjoy trying it someday.

    Great beer, I only have the bottles tonight though so I guess I’ll have to work through these 6 and get me some cans tomorrow lol.

    It should be aesier to bend a crisp edge by having the part you want to bend into a seam hang over a robust edge, and then starting the fold by going over it with a metal rod of some sorts. Once you have it close to a right angle, you can turn it over and close it more by going over it with the rod again against the straightedge on the inside.

      Do it up. Just remember if it’s to crisp it could snap.

    I've seen these done before, but none were as cool as the Voodoo Ranger! Now pair it with the Fosters pot and have a really cool setup

    I was about to try this when I remembered that aluminum cans have an epoxy coating on the inside that I would not want to breathe in or contaminate my water/food. That’s probably what the black smoke was that you saw

    • @BackcountryTreks
      @BackcountryTreks  Рік тому

      Black smoke is from the carbon felt because it was brand new. Only does that on the first burn. Thanks for watching🍻

    Put holes into that diy windscreen so your stove does not go into runaway mode from getting too hot.

      There are holes punched in the windscreen which is shown in the video.
