That's just sucking the fuel down. Did you make a two-wall design?

yea its got a pop can, then a half of a normal can, like a baked bean can, the pot sits on top of that then a wind screen made from a oven liner. It does seem to use a lot of fuel though, to much to make it pratical

Photo - I can't visualize your stove. Doesn't sound like any other homemade stove I've seem and I'm seen a lot.

I'm going to have to see a good picture.

You have to cover that little filler hole in the center before lighting the stove !!!!! Thats the very reason my pepsi stove went boom awhile back !!!!

I've started a new thread on this.
It's two important to get overlooked due to an awkward title.
Please make future comments about this stove blowup on that thread.
