Always happy to hear from you! Your comments, shares and all other interactions are very welcome.
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful and I love the addition of the little cap for lighting!
The method you use to make the loop in copper without kinking is ingenious - thanks!
Great job here,clear simple instructions, the best Ive seen. Many thanks
Best example I've seen so far. Thanks!
Best version of this build video I've seen yet
Thank you.
I like your demonstration better than others I've seen. So great! Thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you and welcome
I made one. I didn't have 1/4" soft copper but I did have 1/4" aluminum pilot tubing so I used that and it worked fine.
I like the idea and this takes me back about 80 years when my own mother used paraffin which was evaporated in this manner, Also the old blow lamps had such an evaporator, I am so surprised that the flame is rather " carbonising flame" and it looks a little sooty. A small er hole would have resulted in a neutral flame, I guess. Congratulations for the workmanship, looking at the manner those hands were curling that copper, well it looks that those hands are rather experienced in handling gently the materials of a craftsman, Well done.
That's a clever idea thanks for sharing mate.
Good job, thanks
Cool idea, and it's art. It's burning a bit too orange and the flame is too tall for a practical camping stove/burner, but you still get a thumbs up!
Great information and instructions that are clear and concise. Thank you for sharing you knowledge and expertise with us.
+Michelle Brown thank you and welcome
Well now that's a trip. The thumbnail popped up in my suggested feed, and I thought, 'well this looks interesting,' and then you get to the part where you have the materials on the table and I see copper tubing made where my dad works!
How small the world sometimes is :D
I'd use ethanol, then you don't have that smell that comes prom isopropanol, or mix it. 2/3 iso and 1/3 ethanol, this also get's rid of the smell. (And makes a nicer flame, too.)
Excellent and to the point!
Thank you!
Could you put a metal mesh in the flame to act as a radiant space heater? Or would that make too much carbon monoxide?
exelente video saludos desde sinaloa mexico
Amazing ❤
😮 wow amazing and simple 👌!!!
I love it !!
Thank you bad ass nice to learn thanks again
Por fin dí con una explicación clara de cómo hacer esta estufa. Muchas gracias buen trabajo.
Well done video for an item that can actually be useful in an emergency situation.
very thanks
Great job as usual!
+Katy Cand thx katy😀
Very cool! Thanks for sharing your build :)
perfect for my college situation
What is the tool used to cut the copper tubing ? Can I use kerosene ? And will kerosene burn longer ?
On trumpets they use ice. And additive to make ice doft and slushy. But don’t remember the rest, if they heated quickly or just bended😊 i’m going to make a couple of those. I just need to find desired jars and stuff😊
What size hole needs to be drilled in the tube? The video only stated 'smallest' drill bit.
Nice, you did a great job on these. I like that lager jar, the ones I had on hand were the small mason jars, when I tried the full size one it would not build up enough pressure to get the stove going. You did great!
+Iridium242 hey Iridium i just watched you're video great job and thank you
thanks!
At 1:37 this is the time you can get your tiny drill hole to drill straight into the tube before you compress it . makes the hole vertical instead of offside.
Good Idea.
What size whole
@@bamagregv 1/16 is the smallest I have and it works but you gotta be careful as it tends to bend . The problem remains that the hole has to be pointing up into the tubes above to get the vaporization effect to work .
Great video. I do have a question though. How will this stove work without using the capful of alcohol directly under the copper tubing...without the cap completely? If u us a torch to heat the tubing until vaporization begins, will it still burn until it runs out of fuel? I ask because I made one using a different video that didn’t use the cap, and mine burns for about 5 minutes before it just goes out. Maybe my wick isn’t far enough up the tube or the 2 holes the copper tube goes through on the jars lid isn’t sealed properly. Any ideas?
Excellent, thank you very much
You are welcome!
Is there any way to control the flame.
Какой умница!!! Очень хорошая идея , спасибо...
Would put the wicks in the copper tubing before putting the copper in the cap. be easier to install. nice video. building better the destroying! On bending the tubes? where you bought your copper tubing and tube cutter, they sell different size "M" type soft copper benders?? a set in the states runs about 20 bucks. why waste the salt when sild on a bender and be done in one minute.
very good, I love it
Good job.. good video
Genius!
How did you attach or glue the copper cap o to the mason jar lid?
Smallest drillbit. How small where the one you used
for 3 hrs is great!!
Preheat the copper tube with the flame beforehand, then it will be softer to bend :)
Agradeço o vídeo! 👍✌
Tilt the rounded copper tubing at horizontal level and drill as many holes. Believe this will enhance the heat energy of the copper stove since the flame is scattered at a wider area.
do you have a video link that shows what you are talking about?
It will work with denatured alcohol?
Maybe you could add a valve or something in the alcohol pipe to regulate flame output, i tried different things with empty shells from 9mm, .45 and 7.62, filled with acetone, they work kind of the same princip but less effective XD, but the less aceton was in them "the cooler" the flame got
I think you could just solder copper to tin instead of using the silicone.
great, your projects are always beautiful and well made! Hello Friend
+Work Space thank you Btw keep up the good work great channel you got there
I will do my best and take example from you :)
Great video, nice little stoves, and I like your building techniques. I like using a pipe cap for starting alcohol. I also like the salt for tubing bending. I would like to try freezing water like for making trumpets, and compare the 2 techniques. What are your thoughts on using other fuels like E85? Can these stoves adapt to different fuels without having different sized ports? Liked and subscribed.
+Buddy Clem Thank you i only tried it with 99%alcohol Cause it dosent make a lot of smoke when it burns I will try and get back to you
Thank you samo for the detailed illustration. I guess the flame heats the air so that the alcohol gets sucked and filled the pipe?
Thank you yes exactly
If the tube only went into the jar once instead of twice, you could put a valve inline and control the flame output. Can you use lamp oil or Olive oil in that too?
Bloody awesome video mate¡ thanks heaps. I am gonna go off and make one for when shtf!!!!!!!?
Pretty cool invention buddy! Good video!
There is a tool for working with soft copper called a hand bender... I never tried to bend a full circle, but I'm pretty sure it can be done
Ruthless Cardigan or fill tube with fine sand..also use a spring that will just barley slide over...both will prevent from kinking and pinching
La cuerda es de algodon o de que otro material?
Muito bom !👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. God bless you.
Thank you
Can u add cheap cooking oil or something into d alcohol jar? How about surround d alcohol jar with a bowl of water just in case? Thanku
Mantap Utamakan Keselamatan
👍.i like it . Thanks
Is the copper "thimble" siliconed to the jar lid ? You know, the copper cap that you first put alcohol in to get it started. Thanks
I only used silicone around the copper tube
Great idea , AND, I have all the items to build me one, maybe two. Does it produce enough heat though?
What is "enough heat" exactly?
i love it thanks
+osama kemoo Thank you
Thank you for sharing
Thank you and welcome
Could you please tell me the seal around the pipe to get?
www.amazon.ca/dp/B0002UEPVI/ref=cm_sw_r_oth_api_fabc_-O5-FbEFH8VN3 That’s the 1 i used in the video
Where did you get the latern wick? Cdn tire? What size is your 'smallest drill bit"?
+Mech-Eng yes canadien tire camping section and i used a 1/16 size drill bit
You can also use sand if you don't have salt or you can use water (just seal end thoroughly ). I use JB We D to seal the copper tubing to the lid.
2010joen ... Yes, I noticed that he drilled a very tiny hole, possibly 1/16”. Maybe start with very small diameter drills, test run the stove, and increase drill size, retest, etc.. Until a blue flame is achieved. Since the tube is only 1/4”, possibly a 1/8” diameter hole is too large, and drilling two, or even three much smaller holes in a row would create a broader flame. To what advantage, I’m not sure, but like you mentioned, experimenting might get the desired blue flame.
Salt dissolves. Easy removal. Derp. Water leaks. Simple. Not complicated
Sensacional !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, genius idea; I love it! Could I make a bigger one like use an 8oz - 16oz mason jar with bigger copper tubing to make stronger fire?
I was thinking the same thing.......
Eu não entendi o seu inglês, mais seu trabalho tá ótimo 👍👍👍
Very cool video
It would help your flame burn blue if you used a #60 to #65 drill bit. That is .0400" to .0360" diameters respectfully. Your drilled coil hole is too big thus a yellow flame and you will use less fuel. Most craft shops carry the bits.
Molon Lobe Satcatcher he used salt onside tubes : those the yelowish flamme !
He emptied the salt out after bending the tubes. Supposedly no salt remained. The yellow flame was caused by the ignition rising well above the vapor exit hole and also turbulence mixing air with the burn. I’m thinking a much smaller hole is the way to start the experiment then increase the size until a hot blue flame is achieved. Also, I would separate the upper coils a bit so the flame would be between them, not striking them directly which creates turbulence in the burn. Even though this is a simple design, there are several variables that need to be experimented with.
👍👍👍👍buen video
Can we use kerosene instead of alcohol? Because its is far cheaper than alcohol.
Excellent video, I'm definitely going to make one of these. Have you thought of pulling the wick through the pipe before you bend it ? You could use a coat hanger to do it, and it would probably make the pipe less likely to crimp.
Thank you the wick wont protect the pipe from getting kinked cause it’s not round shaped and it must be placed after bending the pipe so you can tell exactly where it is cause if you noticed the wick dosent go through the whole pipe only on both ends have fun and please be safe
Got it!
would using a soldering iron work better to seal the pipe and the lid instead of silicone?
If the lid was copper, or brass, I would certainly try to solder the tubes. However the lid may be steel or aluminum. If steel, it would be a difficult soldering job, but if aluminum, it would be impossible.
Its about a simple process. Simple cheap. No skill.
nice work . i have a question can we use spirit instead of alcohol?
+abdullah tahir I haven't tried it yet
abdullah tahir spirit is actually methanol. The other name is methyl alcohol, wood alcohol, etc.
thanks 😄😄😄😄
Very nice...
If I had a much bigger container/jar could you use 2 or 3 coils on the same lie to get 3 flames and more heat?
+TheJunkyardgenius I haven’t tried it yet with more than 1 coil
Easier to bend copper if you anneal it first by heating to red hot and plunging into cold water.
Easier to bend yes, less prone to kinking, no. But yeah, I see your point. Just clarifying for possible others.
*THIS IS COOL.*
I guess your stove is better than my coleman stove definitively damaged after a one week camp on the beach. and it's cheaper ! THANK YOU
Hola muy buen vídeo, una pregunta: ¿se podría hacer lo mismo pero con gasolina?
La gasolina es contaminante y produce monoxido de carbono. No es buena para cocinar. Ademas es muy inestable.
Will that stove work using kerosene?
Cool !
Is there a reason why you make the top so tight? If you leave a gap between the coils then the flame could go through.
It needs the heat from the flame to expand the vapor as it is drawn towards the burn hole.
eu nao entendi seu trabalho, mas seu ingles ta otimo.👍
Super
Exelent...!🇧🇷👍🇧🇷
A cerpentina pode ser de alumínio
is it possible to make a few of these into a mini furnace?
That's what i was gonna build out of a ammo can with a heat exchanger venting it outside and a little fan
What is safe fuel for indoor? Please show us how to make the log stand please! I am needing this to use in my home for emegency!.I am very thankful!! Grace
be sure to have good ventilation if burning indoors. alcohol should be safe. I hope everything is okay for you.
@@TooLitForAnInterview 'thanks so very much! i can not get everclear where i live. I do however have vodka b c i use it for herbal tinctures. I think your stoves are so innovative!Great job and thanks again, grace
Grace Brunelle alcohol is a safe fuel. Burns clean
Parabéns👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Tjakepzzz 👌 👍 Cool
How do you keep the alcohol from evaporating when not in use?
There is only that small hole, so I would guess evaporation would be minimal...
You can unscrew the cap and put it back in the bottle.
Use a spare cap... these type of jars have 2 peice tops, ring, lid, you can just carry a extra lid.
Don't you need a small vent in the jar to prevent vacuum from stopping the fuel flow as the level burns down?
The alcohol creates a positive pressure as it vaporizes, so there is no need to have a vent. In fact, having a vent would prevent it from working properly. The heated tube forces the alcohol to vaporize quicker, which is why this design is known as an alcohol jet stove.
Good good
