If you use the phase "man up" you have alot to learn.
"Wise men speak because they have something to say, fools, because they have to say something" Plato.
I have a few cookers in the collection, from small Gaz stoves (four or five of them) to petrol No2 cookers (three of them) a Paraffin stove, several of the flat top gas cannister stoves, three or four Trangia lookalike stoves plus extra burners along with three gallons of Meths, at least a dozen Hexamine stoves, A pretty good dual fuel stove I was directed to on ebay from China (really good as well), a five burner Natural and LPG stove top hob and a two burner LPG worktop hob. Not sure I need any other cookers should TSHTF Apart from that I'm not that good at making things
In all honesty, I would save the homemade stoves as backups (unless your on a really tight budget). You can get decent quality camping stoves for not a lot of money. I bought one a while back, it cost £15 brand new on Amazon, and its about the size of a can of coke. Works really well, no need for lighters or anything either as its one of those click-to-light types. In all honesty I don't carry it in my BOB, for the simple reason that I prefer the idea of MRE's. But have a look anyway
ive made a penny stove and a hobo but still prefer my Trangia burner but i fancy trying a small beer keg wood stovehas any one made one and how easy is it
