How cool dude, no stupid back ground music no garage full of fancy tools just simple instructions verbal and video good job thanks I'll look for more of your videos
My buddy and I were bored one night and having a few drinks. We decided to make a couple of these and see if we could make our dinner on them instead of using the grill lol. It's a fun little project. It worked a lot better than we expected. This was probably 8 years ago. I'm in Texas and just remembered these little things a couple weeks after the power outage lol.
I learned how to turn sea water/dirty water into fresh water by boiling and collecting the steam and now I learned how to make my portable mini, high functioning stove. Thanks buddy. Comes handy during apocalypse or electrical grid outage. You are saving lives without knowing and people will remember your knowledge in times of need. God bless you brother.
Yes..we need to be ready cuz yup its commin . can u send me the info u kno so i can teach my kids..the water sea water one please..you amazing too. Love survival tips

Nice work brother. During the Gulf War, we used to make these out of pop cans but we had to use regular fuel, from helicopters. We mixed sand in place of the insulation you have and this kept the fuel under control. Great heat and a great way to cook food and have a warm meal. We actually made a depression into the ground where we could add our penny can and added arteries to run fresh air to it... then we could place a canteen cup over the can and not smother the flame. This works well and I appreciate you sharing it with the channel viewers here. Take care.
Wow, I just learned how to make a penny can stove! Gotta say when u turned off the lights my reaction was like a kid after watching a magic trick. 😲 Thanks!
When the snow storm in texas hit me, my mother used this trick and we were able to cook again. Thank god because we did not get power for a whole week.
A whole week of winter in texas ..wow ..35 weeks of winter in Canada and its colder ..you have NOTHING to complain about ..what texas got was an insignificant speck of misery
@@relaxingnature2617 your an idiot. They didn’t have heat and lost power and people and pets froze to death and people couldn’t cook food. In cold places we have heat, insulation in the walls and house and warm clothes. Texas was vastly unprepared
I'll be making me a bunch of these x 4 to separate a little and use together for a small but powerful cooking stove. Crisco Shortening is somewhat inexpensive and burns for hours and hours at a time! There are UA-cam videos to show you how to make a Crisco Candel. Just remember to always make them out of can materials, (not any glass jars like some UA-cam influencers tell you to do). That's because Crisco Shortening is not candle wax and does not burn the same. Crisco Shortening is an oil and gets extremely hot and might perhaps burst the glass, making it unsafe and dangerous. Don't risk glass just use can tins. I sure do like the way you made a custom fit top for it to extinguish the flame when done with. You get an A+ Sir for this one!!!
My wife and I keep several extra cans of Crisco in the pantry and not for cooking....just buy a few small diameter candle wicks, or even take some 3" birthday candles and push them down into the crisco, then light the candles or wicks. Lasts a very long time, and can be extinquished and reused for cooking, or evening lighting! Be certain not to use the plastic crisco cans, but find a larger metal tomato can or such and put the crisco in it if you cannot find the old style crisco can. These are very useful as multiple day candles and a lot cheaper! HA HA
my dad had to make emergency stoves when he used to get lost in the mountains, he used cotton instead of glass insulation, works wonders when you have nothing else
Cut a 3 pound coffee can to a ring, 1/4 inch wider than stove and place the stove in the center. Now a skillet can be placed on the coffee can for a nice holder and with a flame that good, you can sauté your Bass like a pro right there at the river.
Simple, but ingenious. Thanks for sharing this. You just might have potentially saved families from hunger and cold winters as well as campers. God bless you a million folds.

Safety tip: Only use pennies from before 1982 as they are pure copper. After 1982, they were made of zinc with copper coating. Zinc melts at a lower temperature than copper, which can cause it to expand, rupturing the copper coating like a grenade and sending molten metal everywhere.
I enjoyed reading the positive reviews ALMOST as much viewing your amazing video. I saw this years ago & have made so many to give away I have lost count. I don't care for the tea so I try to give THAT away 1st.😊 The only thing I do differently is I attached a box cutter blade to my multi-talented wood block & before I start the project I use wet/dry sandpaper to remove the paint from the outer can to make it look prettier. Thanks again for your amazing, no nonsense, no stupid music, video. Arizona Tea ought to pay you for their😊 increase in sales!

My grandkids love to camp and backpack, so I am always looking for ideas to help support their hobby. Your UA-cam video was a great idea for me to further assist the grandkids. I was not able to find any Arizona Tea Cans in any of my local stores, I live in a small farm town in Western Michigan, but I was able to find 25 oz cans of the Australian beer FOSTERS. I believe the diameter is slightly bigger than the Arizona Cans. Anyway I tried the FOSTERS 25 oz cans and It worked great. In addition I got to have a little beer, so I really enjoyed myself while making something useful for the kids. One plus for using FOSTER cans, is that I got a longer burn time for one load of fuel (HEET). The FOSTER can held about 4oz of fuel. I got approximately 30 minutes during one test run. My general rule is that the burn time is equal to about 15minutes for every 2 oz of fuel. Respectfully, George Keefe
Excellent comment! I really enjoyed that. Thank you for the kind words and support you give my channel. It warms my heart to know that my video was appreciated. Blessings to you!
Great video JJ. I've seen a couple of these on other sites, but yours was the most explicit. We're in the UK and for any UK viewers not familiar with Heet (I'm not) just use "methylated spirits" as a fuel, works perfectly, cheap and readily available in any hardware or DIY store. Thanks again JJ
This was like a suspenseful TV show. I literally watched this in suspense because those little tweaks, like twisting the can or folding over the extra tin, were something I wouldn't never thought of doing and its all so simple but perfect. Beautiful job.
Awesome video, I built this as I watched and it worked perfectly. I found that the metal lid from a pickle jar makes a perfect priming dish. just "spill" a bit in the lid as you fill and then light the lid and the top.
You people that whine about background music seem to want even more attention when there isn't any, and you feel the need to say "tHaNkS fOr No LamE bAcKgRoUnd mUsiC. ReeEEeEEeE."
Jordan Service LOL! Me too. Too many van life vids. Now I’m getting videos of people making odd things. Having said that I actually enjoyed them. Including this one!
Plenty of ultralight hikers actually make & use these types of stoves. It's super light, the fuel is cheap & easy to find (usually available at the village store), and it takes up very little space in a backpack.
I love how unique hobo stoves are. Most have the same soda can alcohol holder but the bases for holding the pan up are almost always different! A utilitarians dream art form!
I made one of these about 10 years ago using denatured alcohol just as a possible camping tool when my kids were smaller. It turned out really well, hubby was impressed. Thanks for the vid, I'd almost forgotten about this neat little project.
Congrats brother.I quit pot too.After a month,I quit all tobacco as well. I did it all..cigs,cigars,anuff,chewing tob.At times,Id do several at once.But I feel GREAT! You will too.Give it a couple months.Busy yourself and youll fee so much better.I no longer miss any of that stuff.Hang tough brother.You have only one body..one life.Be good to it.
Marcus Bangers Go watch JonXArmy UA-cam video from today. You might want to at least have these supplies on hand. I'm in NE PA. It gets cold. This method would be better than nothing. We have a generator but what happens when you run out of gas?
You do realize sticks, twigs, debris....let’s keep it simple..WOOD can be used to build a fire right? This device isn’t a life saver it’s a gimmick that works. Rocks and wood and you’ll do just fine. Beats searching all over for alcohol when all you need is at your feet. ✌🏻 Don’t take the cheap and easy way out, do it right so you know, the rest becomes child’s play so to speak.
@@leecherry6171 You do realize there are conditions in which it can be very difficult to to find any dry wood and manage to ignite it and keep it burning, right?
Here in the Philippines when we change oil our motorcycle we used the old oil mix with denatured alcohol as a fuel for cooking.We also used improvised burner.
Super useful info!!! It scares me more and more these days that I'm completely helpless without modern comforts, so glad I found this channel!! Thanks much!
I vaguely remember working on a similar project in high school, but with no cuts, fewer holes, and the can oriented on it's side. Actually, it was probably after school now that I think about it.
The best one among hundreds that I have seen. Robust, powerful and that detail of security provided by insulation real brought this one to the top of my list. #1

More likely they are lead ingots that he can melt down to make bullets from a bullet mold. Self-reliant people like him would definitely keep lead around (it's often alloyed with antimony) to make their own bullets. I used to reload ammo (9mm, .45, and .308) but I bought pre-cast bullets in bulk. I think this guy is just ready for anything, including the boogaloo that a lot of folks are talking about right now. That's my guess.

@@robertsmith5323 Are you implying people don't trade or barter? Every single person has to have a distillery? Man, it's crazy how every single person that does crack or meth or heroine just makes it themselves since apparently not being able to buy things at the store makes it impossible to get from anyone else. (This is actually your logic)
@@robertsmith5323 Wrong. The most valuable commodity always will be ammunition in a lawless situation. Also, did you know you can make high alcohol spirits without distilling, especially if flavour doesn't matter? They're called still spirits, and if you live in a cold region you can make it stronger via a process called "jacking". Feel free to walk away, it's not *my* argument; I just swooped in because you were being silly.
It has taken me several years of prepping, metalwork and camping to realise just how great your video is. This penny stove rivals trangias and you can make it with two beer cans. Great job fella
Thank you very much. These are the things that should be taught to every child in Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. Along with how to read a map, navigate by the stars, pitch tints, surviving the wilderness, shoot guns, and all the things we need to know about surviving if things go wrong.

Dude, you are so awesome! Something this easy to assemble will be essential for people in bad times. You might think its not necessarily important but it so is. Most of these things people without means can get from a dollar store and actually survive with it. The most expensive thing is the $3 fiberglass....I'm still floored by the simplicity. Thank you so much ❤
this is definately great for stealth and cooking things in boiling bags...there will come a day when the old ways will be the only way...whatcha gonna do when they come for you? Better save the fancy stuff for when you gotta go covert. Remember, in that case heat.signatures can do you in...cooking smells, all kinds of things can draw unwanted attention. I am old and probably won't make it but that's only cuz my endurance is way past it's expiry date. Those who possess strength and are just learning better bone up on reality ...shits comin'. The herd will be culled...indeed it will ! Those who leave early...shut the door quiet like...and leave the left overs for the young ...no one will thank you but you will have done some good. Newbies...take note...there is far more to survival than a penny can stove...do not stop here...push forward!

over 9 thousand comments for a little stove, we really are amazed with anything to do with fire.
His comment level is over 9000!!!
Original or not. The comments are for his ingenuity not necessarily for “a little stove”.
it aint the fire...it's the aluminum can
Awesome video, I built this as I watched and it worked perfectly. I found that the metal lid from a pickle jar makes a perfect priming dish. just "spill" a bit in the lid as you fill and then light the lid and the top.
Great tip!
Finally an instructional video without the lame ass music. Thank you.
You people that whine about background music seem to want even more attention when there isn't any, and you feel the need to say "tHaNkS fOr No LamE bAcKgRoUnd mUsiC. ReeEEeEEeE."
@@littlejackalo5326 who's whining?
I can't focus without the chipmunk voice over a techno beat though
so true.
@@littlejackalo5326 what do you mean, "you people"?
I like people who put a lot of effort into their videos shows yt has hard workers
nice dude, 10/10.
I shall know how to make this and...
never use it.
WTF The Tokyovania remasterer is here?
Why hello there
Not 10/10
It’s 1000000000000/10
I'm a city woman with a patriot soul. I am grateful for your precious info - it just may keep me alive. Many thanks and much love!
A project I completed with only my Leatherman tool . Right along with the video. Now I got a sweet little stove. 🔥
Not often I am impressed by home made emergency things, but this was awesome! Never seen or heard of this before, but a very useful thing to know!
"I'm using Arizona Tea cans." Fast forward to 10:11 "Looks like this had some tea inside or something." Can't put anything past this guy!
Man that’s beautiful. I don’t even need a penny can stove, just looks like a fun project to do. 😲
Thank you for the tutorial the results are verry good
I'm extremely impressed with this. And the fact that you did it all without any editing. 👊💜👊
Apparently by my you-tube viewing habits I'm training to be a classic Hobo.
Well, this is a survival skill.. It applies to everyone, not just homeless people.
Jordan Service LOL! Me too. Too many van life vids. Now I’m getting videos of people making odd things. Having said that I actually enjoyed them. Including this one!
Plenty of ultralight hikers actually make & use these types of stoves. It's super light, the fuel is cheap & easy to find (usually available at the village store), and it takes up very little space in a backpack.
@@jonathantan2469 Oh you teach advanced Hobo training 3405?
;D
ive seen people who travel on motorcycles, camping every night. using things like these to cook or even heat their tents (thats a dangerous one)
I love how unique hobo stoves are. Most have the same soda can alcohol holder but the bases for holding the pan up are almost always different! A utilitarians dream art form!
I made one of these about 10 years ago using denatured alcohol just as a possible camping tool when my kids were smaller. It turned out really well, hubby was impressed.
Thanks for the vid, I'd almost forgotten about this neat little project.
I got fired from work and I'm hella bored I quit smoking weed because I want to get a better job so I'm going to make this today to kill some time 😎
Quit smoking. I'm doing the same!
I quite after 20+ years. You got this Victor. You'll end up feeling relieved. Like the shackles have been broken. GL on the job hunt homie.
God be with you🙏
Go sell cars. Can change your life, money is there if you work hard you can hit 60-80k first year in just about any legit dealership.
Congrats brother.I quit pot too.After a month,I quit all tobacco as well. I did it all..cigs,cigars,anuff,chewing tob.At times,Id do several at once.But I feel GREAT! You will too.Give it a couple months.Busy yourself and youll fee so much better.I no longer miss any of that stuff.Hang tough brother.You have only one body..one life.Be good to it.

Jokes on you I just made one following this video.
I just made one.
You can need it someday. Who knows...
I'm gonna go and make too.
Thanks!

👍👍👍
The likes are insane i guess a lot of people feel the same way

Go watch JonXArmy UA-cam video from today. You might want to at least have these supplies on hand. I'm in NE PA. It gets cold. This method would be better than nothing. We have a generator but what happens when you run out of gas?
@@jadedoptimist4397 Then what happens when you run out of fuel for this burner?
pay attention could save your life some day
"Hamboning could save your LIFE some day!"
poolfenceboy exactly!
Anyone who couldn't figure out how to put something functional together with such ingredients is probably screwed in an emergency situation anyway
You do realize sticks, twigs, debris....let’s keep it simple..WOOD can be used to build a fire right? This device isn’t a life saver it’s a gimmick that works. Rocks and wood and you’ll do just fine. Beats searching all over for alcohol when all you need is at your feet. ✌🏻 Don’t take the cheap and easy way out, do it right so you know, the rest becomes child’s play so to speak.
@@leecherry6171
You do realize there are conditions in which it can be very difficult to to find any dry wood and manage to ignite it and keep it burning, right?
I didn’t search for this video. The video searched for me.
Here in the Philippines when we change oil our motorcycle we used the old oil mix with denatured alcohol as a fuel for cooking.We also used improvised burner.
How many parts used oil to how many parts denatured alcohol?
thats literal poison you are cooking with
Damn they should start teaching this in California schools.
Excellent 💡 idea
Think they have enough fires
You spelled Texas wrong
sorry we prefer gender studies you bigot
Exactly they’re gonna end up homeless anyway
Super useful info!!! It scares me more and more these days that I'm completely helpless without modern comforts, so glad I found this channel!! Thanks much!
This man has the focus of a Jedi. He didn’t slice his fingers once, or hammer his fingers.
I swear I was thinking the same thing!
what i like is you make it so easy even my wife could build this stove
I swear, that little block of wood is the most useful tool known to man!
YUP !
Picking up a block of wood and using it for your will is the first step to eventually social distancing.
As the saying goes, anything can become a hammer.!
Don't forget the "Big Block Of Wood"
@@hodaka1000 that's what HE said!😆😆😆😁
I vaguely remember working on a similar project in high school, but with no cuts, fewer holes, and the can oriented on it's side. Actually, it was probably after school now that I think about it.
Sounds like a make shift pipe lol
Classic!

Cool! Perfect for a bug out bag along with a little jar of instant coffee!
A couple of bags of raw herbs for me, please.
Still spot on
A Case of Spaghettios...cook 'em right in the can on the stove...
and water... unless you build a fire down by the river
@@gatorbuiltthose cans have plastic liners to keep the food fresh, burn them out in a fire first before using as a cooking tin.
Holy shit, this man is making a stove from a can while flexing silver bars stacked in the background.
I think they're aluminum.
Definitely aluminum. I used to smelt it.
Lead and/or tin.
More likely they are lead ingots that he can melt down to make bullets from a bullet mold. Self-reliant people like him would definitely keep lead around (it's often alloyed with antimony) to make their own bullets. I used to reload ammo (9mm, .45, and .308) but I bought pre-cast bullets in bulk. I think this guy is just ready for anything, including the boogaloo that a lot of folks are talking about right now. That's my guess.
Too dull for silver..too uniform for alum..probably lead
Finely!!! A real diy that you can actually do with things around you. Not having to have 100'$ to 1000'$ of $ worth equipment!!! Thank! You got another follower in me and my ole' lady! Been trieing to teach her things like this. Everyone needs to be self sustainable! Thank you bro!
If you use a razor blade to score it as you did with the pin originally, you won't need the scissors. Good video, thanks
I love how NOW UA-cam Recommends this to me.
@Unbound Cali - Noticed that TOO, did you ? This one's 3 years or so old, and its JUST coming up NOW ;=) ?!?
Theve been recommending it to me for MONTHS / YEARS AND ITS ANNOYING

@@robertsmith5323 as in no, rice, grain, seed, corn, sugar or wood?? I'm confused mate?? *scratches head
@@robertsmith5323 Are you implying people don't trade or barter? Every single person has to have a distillery?
Man, it's crazy how every single person that does crack or meth or heroine just makes it themselves since apparently not being able to buy things at the store makes it impossible to get from anyone else. (This is actually your logic)
@@robertsmith5323 Wrong. The most valuable commodity always will be ammunition in a lawless situation. Also, did you know you can make high alcohol spirits without distilling, especially if flavour doesn't matter? They're called still spirits, and if you live in a cold region you can make it stronger via a process called "jacking". Feel free to walk away, it's not *my* argument; I just swooped in because you were being silly.
It has taken me several years of prepping, metalwork and camping to realise just how great your video is.
This penny stove rivals trangias and you can make it with two beer cans. Great job fella
Anyone else watching this during the covid 19 out break?

Quarantine got us watching some pretty random things.
@adam Wiech I so agree!!!
😂😂😂😂😂 I just watched a tin can stove tutorial 😂😂😂😂
yeah but this is good info it will help if we dont have a stove around at some point XD
Tru dat
Great video for us Patriots and not the sheeple.
Man you are a genius that was state-of-the-art thank you for sharing
Thank you very much. These are the things that should be taught to every child in Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. Along with how to read a map, navigate by the stars, pitch tints, surviving the wilderness, shoot guns, and all the things we need to know about surviving if things go wrong.
I was in the Girl Scouts in the 80s, we did learn all you mentioned. We also made burners out of tuna cans, cardboard, and crayons.
That was unnecessarily awesome. I will try this someday soon.
Isn't that dangerous to breathe
Sincerely Brilliant... Incredible cool idea, and the materials needed wouldn't even take up the space of a very small box. Former Marine... And I know a thousand Marines who would carry this in there pack...
Thank you! Hooyah!! Or for you... Oorah!!! Blessings

Quando serve una cucina improvvisata,questa è la scelta migliore. Grazie tante per condividere.🙏
🤔 BOM
I was bored during quarantine and did this for fun. Ended up making s’mores. It was amazing
Did it get hot like a heater
What kind of fuel do you use
Felicia Simpson use “Heet” it’s the best. Cheapest and most efficient. I’ve watched multiple tests of different fuels and “Heet” usually comes out on top
@@jamalydude thank you very much.
wonder if you could use cotton instead of fiberglass?...
I am from Papua New Guinea and this home technology advertised is amazing and it definitely gonna save some kinas (Local currency). Thank you once again.
Wow! That is one cool clean finish for a stove. The fire is just like that of commercial stoves. Really really impressed. Thank you for sharing!!!
Kinda begs the question of, did I pay too much for my stove??
Dude, you are so awesome! Something this easy to assemble will be essential for people in bad times. You might think its not necessarily important but it so is. Most of these things people without means can get from a dollar store and actually survive with it. The most expensive thing is the $3 fiberglass....I'm still floored by the simplicity. Thank you so much ❤
I love the simplicity of your tools. I also love the modification of using a slightly larger and thicker can. Well done. Great share!
I'm about to to show this this to my Scouts on a zoom meeting during lockdown, best penny stove tutorial by far... Thank you
this is definately great for stealth and cooking things in boiling bags...there will come a day when the old ways will be the only way...whatcha gonna do when they come for you? Better save the fancy stuff for when you gotta go covert.
Remember, in that case heat.signatures can do you in...cooking smells, all kinds of things can draw unwanted attention.
I am old and probably won't make it but that's only cuz my endurance is way past it's expiry date. Those who possess strength and are just learning better bone up on reality
...shits comin'.
The herd will be culled...indeed it will !
Those who leave early...shut the door quiet like...and leave the left overs for the young ...no one will thank you but you will have done some good.
Newbies...take note...there is far more to survival than a penny can stove...do not stop here...push forward!
Super cool, i cant wait to make one . Thanks! Keep the handy stuff coming, gotta love repurposing recyclables!
I'm homeless and my bf and i made 2 of these and they are awesome for cooking and for heat.. thank you. !!!!!

OMG. i just realized the holes on the sides are lower than the top. recessing the flame so you can place a tiny pot or mini pan on top to cook. This is very useful knowledge. Thankyou

Crazy. I used an Arizona green tea can to fix my caliber when I broke down on I95 north in Delaware. Worked nicely and I got to a gas station.
Pls explain more !!!
@@johnburrisfromchicago my caliber lower screw fell out as I was driving on I 95 North. I broke down. I took the tire off saw the caliber hanging. I only had Arizona green tea, all I drink. I cut both top & bottom off and rolled it tight like a joint... Stuck it in like a nail. I was able to get off 95 N and got help. I am NO mechanic. Nor do I even know how I came up with the idea. The mechanic was seriously amazed. Said I would have made it home to NJ if I used the Ebreak.
@@jaymejefferson6438 very impressive !!!
