DIY Alcohol Stove, Stand and Pot – With A Twist

Image As you all know I’m a bit of a gear nut. I love making my own stuff and I’m constantly experimenting with different ideas and tweaking them and trying to improve on their design. I’m working on a project (you’ll see the post soon) on making a coffee can survival kit for the car. One of the ideas was to do it as cheaply as possible because I hate parting ways with my heard earned money. Part of the kit was a stove, but I wasn’t satisfied with the way the pieces of the stove system fit into the coffee can, so I grabbed a couple of different size cans and started experimenting . The idea was to get the stove and potholder to fit into the pot – all three items had to fit into one can. (That’s the twist.)

The final project used a few recycled cans and some denatured alcohol to fuel the stove. Total cost of materials – 0$. . --- continued at link, above --- WITH photos & Instructions ---

How to Make a Penny Can Stove
https://urbansurvivalsite.com/make-penny-can-stove/

This contraption costs next to nothing to make, it’s very efficient, it can be used for cooking, and it can be used for heating.

Since it takes up very little space, you could include this and some denatured alcohol in your bug out bag so you can cook food or at least heat up canned food in an emergency. To make it, you’ll need two soda cans, a marker, sharp scissors, a sanding block or file, a nail, needle-nose pliers, some fiberglass insulation, some heat resistant sealant, and a penny. ---CONTINUED---
