STOVE… IN MY POCKET

STOVE... IN YOUR POCKETThe adventurous has a lot of gadgets for cooking in field conditions (stoves, soldering lamps, portable stoves, etc.). They need a supply of liquid fuel or wood. First — it is unsafe to store, and firewood in the mountains or in the steppe belese not find. For climbers and hikers, hunters and anglers offer a simple and easy to use stove that does not require traditional fuel. A mini-stove and a few packs of dry fuel in the backpack many places will not take.

 
Hiking the hearth is collected from waste sheet metal (aluminum, steel, etc.). The configuration of the bottom wall of the oven repeat the form of dishes used, with a gap from the walls 20 to 30 mm.
 
Grille to install the dish serves several segments of the steel rods with a diameter of 3.5 (and other, then don’t forget to drill the appropriate holes in the body of the stove) and a length of 15 — 30 mm larger than the diameter of the stove. In the preparation of the hearth to work the rods threaded through holes drilled at a distance of 80 — 90 mm from its bottom in the opposite wall.
 
The design of the stove shown in the figure. The sizes are given under the standard army hat. In the stowed position, the bars are removed and the pot is placed inside the case. As a result, the center occupies a space not much bigger cookware to prepare meals. The space between the walls of the stove and a pot filled with equipment (fencing, fuel, gear, etc.).
 
Portable stove tourist
 
Portable stove tourist:
 
1 — body of the stove (aluminum s1, the size of the pot), 2 — Autonomous the bottom of the case (aluminum s1), 3 — dry fuel, 4 — rod grid (steel rod Ø3. 5,4 PCs.), 5 — pot

 
The design can be modified with folding legs and tray for laying of fuel, and make a double wall with insulation, a hinged grate for fitting utensils, etc
 
The configuration and dimensions of the oven vary depending on the dishes. But the scheme of the device is necessary to maintain the flame should pass from the bottom of the cookware and forth between the walls of the cookware and the stove, which ensures fast heating and reliable burning even in a strong wind. This convenient stove I use for many years in all weather conditions.
