Pay attention not to use any synthetic fibers or strings made of synthetic fibers for the wick. You must use natural fibers such as cotton or hemp fibers. Synthetic fibers would melt inside the copper tube and fail to serve as a wick.
Great vid, this reminds me of when I was in the RAF as a chef when we went out into the field on exercise. We had the normal field catering equipment, setting up tents, getting the burners up and running and within a couple of hours getting the grub ready before the hungry hordes descended on us. We had a piece of equipment that while really versatile and efficient was very very dangerous if not properly maintained. It could run on petrol, diesel or gas. It consisted of a pressure tank containing the fuel (liquid) with a separate connection for a gas link.along side was a air pump with a leaver fixed at one end, half way down was a connecting rod attached to the workings for the pump. By moving the handle up and down you could pressurise the tank to about if I remember 40psi. This was the max pressure. There was a small gauge with a green and red zone and a lead over pressure blowout plug . There was also a valve on the top of the tank to release the air pressure in an emergency. At the bottom of the tank there was another valve-to release the fuel via a pipe to the burner frame. There were to types of burner. One for petrol and one for diesel. Both had a pre-heater to vaporise the fuel before it got to the burner. The petrol burner had two long rectangular tubes with narrow slots cut across the tube width the full length of the tube. Between the burners was a tube filled with wire wool that the vapour had to pass before getting to the burner head, this took the lead out of the vapour. When the white petrol vapour started to rise from the tubes a flame (burning paper) was used to ignite the vapour, usually with a loud woomph. Cooking could now commence. The other frame burner (diesel fuel) was mostly the same build except the flame end which was a x shape in a square frame made of steel tubing that allowed the fuel to circulate. A piece of cloth soaked in diesel was draped across the burner and set fire to, this pre heated the tubing and when the fuel vaporised in the tubing it was sent back to the burner which ended up repeating the process. This resulted in a long flame blasting out. The burner was places in a trench and with either an oven at the end of the trench to cook in or steel plates placed across the trench you had a stove top to work on. As yo can imagine maintaining the kit was vital. The most common injury was caused by over pressuring the tank and the lead plug coming out of the tank when you were leaning over the tank when pumping. In addition there was another source of heat which was much simpler called a Locombane Burner. Very simple and very versatile. Take a length of copper water pipe about six foot long and seal one end, either crimping and folding or with a bolt. About eight inches from the end drill two holes about one inch apart. With a pipe bender carefully bend the end over itself in a till the crimped end is nearly touching the pipe at 90 degrees. The two holes must be pointing in the direction of the bent pipe. This is the burner end. A flat piece of metal must be clamped to the middle of the pipe so it holds the curled end in an upright end whilst laying on the ground. A flexible fuel pipe would be added to the other end with a water type tap to shut off or turn on the fuel. Some form of tank or drum is connected to the hose and the tank filled with diesel. This should be placed about 4 to 5 feet Obote the burner. To light the burner a small piece of rag would be placed over the burner end. The fuel was turned on at the tank. And allowed to flow to the rag and soak it. The fuel was turned off and the rag lit. The flame would slowly heat up the fuel in the end of the pipe and a white vapour would start to jet out of the two small holes at that point, before the flame went out the fuel at the tank would be turned on and a large flame would jet our. By careful adjustment of the tap you would get a steady large flame about 4ft x 1ft belting out at the business end. The theory behind it is as the fuel goes down the pipe by gravity it comes to the turn in the pipe (heated by the flame) vaporises carries on round coming out of the two small holes under pressure and ignites and then heated up the pipe, well you get the picture it’s self perpetuating whilst there is fuel in the tank. We used it in when we had to abandon our field kitchen during exercises and we would make ovens out of drums and make trench stoves. A very useful bit of kit made out of what ever you could lay your hands on.
Very cool. The fuc4tards that commented otherwise have me wondering why they spent eleven minutes watching it. It was obvious the pace and character of the video in the first three minutes. Y'all are some unhappy trolls. I chose to stay and enjoyed it.
1652 F I'm curious how you found that number. Did you heat something up with it to that temp and check it with a heat gun? I doesn't seem nearly that hot just by flame color alone. But it could look different than the video might suggest.
While he did show each step, he didn't show all the dimensions, or name the ingredients, like the sand, or corn meal he was pouring into the tube, so that it would not bend flat, or kink. I am going to assume that the bolt was about 3/4 inch. He also did not say what fuel he was using. I am guessing it was alcohol.

If I make one, I will include a role of tape with it, and a frame to set small pots, or cups on, or a pan from a military mess kit.

Weld, which is made to withstand high heat!
@@AnthonyGoodley. Only if you are not the kind of person who would actually make one. Thank the guy who showed you his ingenuity and ability to actually make something useful 😊
I’d love to try making one of these. Would have been really nice if each item used was given a label. Some of them are listed in the description, but not all of them. For example, the stray-on [glue] or some kind of sealer used over the cement was not identified. Also, the fuel, which I assume to be isopropyl alcohol, was not labeled in the steps for making this lamp/cooking flame/sterilizer/whatever. Reading the comments, there are several other similar and same ideas about the missing part ID’s.
Excellent, years ago a work colleague made an Olympic torch, like the hand held torch the athletes carry, using lamp oil? when a neighbour reached the Olympics. Was passing one morning at 6am and it was still burning brightly, never seen anything in all of you tube like it, Until this video, this is like a miniature version. Well done.
There is a easy design, old desert rat trick. Ammo box, fill with sand to the top. Pour in one cup of fuel anything that turns to vapour. Light. Smokeless camp fire in a can, cook, warm, close the lid when done. Bonus points sand can be lowered to suit, grill added on top of box, pan on walls of box. Warm the metal lid you have a heat or warmer after it closed tight. Knocked over, fuel burns of fast and smothered due to fuel source lost. It's big, heavy and stable. Simple, small, works, reusable, clean, cheap.
I do suggest that a housing, or stand is made to surround this hazardous huge open flame with no safety cut off, and a very stable fueling system that would survive any fall and continue to burn. It's a beast of a design with a huge tank of fuel. Time = complacency to the dangers. Most spirt lamps were used and blown out, heat up something that demanded attention. This thing, and the people who may use it, well I don't see the area around it always be perfectly controlled and zero chance of safe. I suggest design holders that achieve the purpose with efficiency, and this as a inserted heat source.
Oh I do love a video with no talking when I have to guess what's being used. I am assuming as the jar is sealed, the flame will eventually extinguish itself once it's used the oxygen inside the jar, either that or it will implode.
no, the flame is not running off the oxygen inside the jar. It is running off the open air oxygen, hence the colour and shape of the flame - the blue cone being the unignited vapour being drawn out of the hole by the venturi effect caused by the preheating of the fuel as it goes round the rings positioned inside the flame. That creates a pressure difference and actively sucks the vapour out of the hole and hence the flame burns hotter (and more noisily) than a simple candle would. you are correct in recognising that as the fuel level falls a vacuum is being created inside the sealed jar and therefore a point will arise where there is insufficient suction created by the venturi effect to overcome atmospheric pressure trying to go down the tube into the vacuum of the jar. At that point the flame would starve itself of fuel since the wick is carefully (and clearly) shown as being a few mm inside the tube away from the hole, therefore the wick cannot itself burn, and so the flame would indeed go out.
Wouldn't negative pressure draw air in past the wick into the container, the wick is saturated with fuel but air should be able to pass thru it and equalize the pressure
The expansion of the fuel is creating positive pressure. The fuel is not being drawn by suction. Rather, it is being drawn by capillary action which requires neither vacuum nor pressure.
@@casteg52 unlikely unless you adding presssure to the jar and possibly adding extra oxgen. the wick only allows for some muh transfer of liquid to gas.
Superglue and bicarbonate of soda would have done just as well to seal the tubes i use it all the time for all sorts of things which i dont want to break or want to seal.
Many people are asking about the fuel used. I can’t say for 100% sure but I think it is running on fuel alcohol or denatured alcohol you can purchase from the hardware store. Lamp oil and kerosene tend to refract the light differently such that you would see some rainbow effect when viewing it through glass.
Some brass instrument makers use soapy water in their brass tubes and freeze it. Apparently the soap in the water prevents it from bursting. Not sure how well it would work here.
That was a pretty good idea . I've just got one problem with it. The coil should be spread apart to where the flame or even the flames heat can't get to the tubing. Over a little time the flame will heat up the coil and start going down into the jar of kerosene and it might catch fire or blow up. Maybe try making the tubing like an "n" with the hole at the top so the flame and the flames heat goes upward and not toward the tubing so the tubing will stay cool. 😊 Another thing, it might be better to use a pint size mason jar. The Mason jar flats have a gasket seal on them that would help keep any fumes from escaping from around the lid. Another thing you could do is to make 3 or even 4 of the "n" copper tubes to stick up out of the top of the lid to amplify the heat and you could put stand to hold a small lite weight titanium pot on the stand to cook on. You might even be able to put one of those stove fans that spin from the heat of your stove on top of a stable stand so the fan could push the heat into the room to heat it and not let the small flames heat just go up to the ceiling to be cooled and waisted as the heat travels upward. In a cold room you'd benefit from the heat blowing sideways into the room towards the people that the heat traveling upwards. You might be able to make and put 2 or 3 of those jar heaters on about a 2 foot stand like a coffee table. Then put the jars in the middle of the table and get a cooking grill grate and put bricks on 4 sides of the jars to put the grate on just above the very tip of the flames tips and then cook on it and then sit the stove fan on the grate on the flame to spin the fan to give you warmth. Just a thought. What do all of you think ? 😮
I have seen alcohol versions of this design reach runaway temps and start barfing ignited liquid fuel everywhere. If the ignited fuel surrounds the glass fuel container it certainly could explode. Ive also seen flashback on a kerosene version where the initial use of carbon felt wicking smoldered back as the fuel started to run dry and blew the mason jar lid and the remaining ignited fuel all over a good part of a friends shop after running fine for a while. Always use wicking, and cotton wicking seems to be safer and more stable like this youtuber has used. Maybe having the spacing between the loops a little wider, so the flame orifice can still assist vaporization without directly contacting the tubing, would help? I have used coarse clean sand/pebbles for aquariums or perlite in the fuel reservoir for another stove to make sure there was room for fuel but not air. This design seems reasonable all the same, but please be careful. Don't kid yourself, even if no explosion.....a runaway heat/fuel situation is a scary moment worthy of respect.
And the thing that catches my eye is that due to the lack of a valve and the discharge of alcohol, it is possible for it to explode due to the negative pressure caused by the vacuum.
Back in old days we used a roll of toilet paper soaked in rubbing alcohol and put into a 1 lb. coffee can to make a heater to warm cold hands, this was before any form of cold weather gear was used. Just take lid off coffee can and light soaked toilet paper, it has almost a clear flame so be careful but it does work, when through, just blow out flame a put coffee can lid back over can. I always kept several of these cans ready for duck hunting...
The poorer Koreans lived in huts that were mainly covering a big hole in the ground, and the sole source of heat,, was a can like the size of a large coffee can, and they would poke oles around the bottom of the can, like using a Church key, (Old bottle opener, and can punch before twist off caps, and pull tabs.) Anyway, they would roll cardboard into a very tight roll, and place it in the can, and soak the card board, before poking holes in the bottom of the can. They would let the fuel soak into the cardboard, at that time it was Kerosene, which is not exactly common anymore. But they would cook, and heat the sub level home, even in the harshest Korean winter! As a kid in Fl.we would go down to the local store/gas station, and kerosene pumps, and get a gallon of kerosene, and put it in a paint bucket, and stick cattails in it, and let them soak, till they formed a gel on them, and we had our own torches! ... Well till the stem caught fire and burnt through. Which is why we had spares! We tried drilling a hole in the bottom of a soup can, and pushing the cattail stem through, to protect the stem, and look more like real torches, as seen in the Frankenstein movies! But that didn't work well either, so it was back to just the soaked cattails. 😶
Another way to seal the burner tube to the lid is soldering. Solder will adhere to steel and brass well. Solder before inserting the wick to keep the wick from charing. Have bright shiney surfaces and use flux. Apply heat sparingly, using a blowtorch.
I'd like to see a comparison of this to a much simpler bunsen burner with similar fuel consumption rates (eg 50ml/hr or whatever) In particular looking at relative light output/brightness. To determine if all this effort is really worth it.
_"what fuel source are you using?"_ The hint is in the engine that was running in the background when he was filling the glass jar. It was a diesel engine running when he was filling the jar and quit when he was finished filling it.
@@nathanwoodruff9422 He's definitely not using diesel fuel here. Color's wrong. Might be jet a. More likely it's denatured ethanol. Could be kerosene but it looks too thin to me. Quite possibly naptha. For what it's worth, he's also definitely not getting a 1700 degree flame. His brass pipe would melt at that temp.
@@ColonelSandersLite _"For what it's worth, he's also definitely not getting a 1700 degree flame. "_ Yea, well sorry to be the bearer of bad news but Diesel auto ignites at 210 °C (410 °F) about the same temperature as Jet A. Nowhere near the 1700 delusion you pulled out of some body part. And it is Diesel. The only reason why this person can't state what the fuel is because Diesel heaters in most parts of the world are illegal to own. This video just happens to be of a Diesel heater.
LOVE THE NATURAL BIRD SOUNDS! Great idea, but why have the loop on the tube? Never mind 😊 I just figured it out. One wants the tube to get hot and transfer heat to the inside of the glass jar. This causes the kerosene to evaporate and the gas’s vapors to expand and push through the brass tube. A torch effect is created at the hole. Very clever! As they say, necessity is the mother of invention.
niceley done you explained almost everything so what about Nozzle Diameter ? looks like 1-2 mm Wick material ? cotton i guess Wich Fuel ? Alkohol, Petroleum, Gasoline, Diesel
We can hear a spluttering when burning, maybe there's not enough pressure being created in the tube. I've seen a few other videos of these where you can really hear the jet sound (sounds like sssshhhhhhh). Maybe the hole is to big or the jar too big for perfect/optimal running
dunno but basic logic says the flame gets hotter because of the fuel.. And as a metal worker and certified mig welder I think I'll call the 1652 degrees a bit shaky.. since at that temp you'd think you'd be melting the copper ...... oh by the way if ppl are amazed at a dual feed lighter I could make one with 100 feeds... to one flame :-\ .... so I'm calling this bs it increase's heat.. cool though... just... follow basics... the only way to increase the heat is by blowing more oxygen into the flame.. why we use oxy acetylene torch's.... lol acetylene wont cut metal
The flame colour indicates that only partial combustion is taking place. This means that the duration of the heating available is less than it might be. Also, smoky flames usually lead to smelly air in the vicinity. Paraffin stoves from an earlier era were very prone to that problem. IMO the design needs more work or possibly a different fuel should be used.
I feel it necessary to explain that you do not fill the jar with any alcohol or liquid heat all the way to the end of the pipes because it will begin to turn it into a flamethrower and there are better ways to make this rocket stove that are a lot safer but kudos to the video creator for making original content and thinking outside the box
What was used for fuel? Second question. Are you telling me this can be used for an exstended time and have no repercussions? Hot copper tube inside sealed jar.
I hope he wasn't being judgemental. But, there is a huge difference in being ignorant, which means you didn't know, and being stupid or an idiot. Which means you are incapable of learning or just won't learn.
Thank friend ; for hare to the young generation who i want to know , but this lamp is a classic one , I used in 1965 to 1979 when I grew up I saw my MOM used it and I asked her how long she has that lamp? and she reply said my father had that lamp a long time a go since I grew up, so I don't know this lamp who invent it, we can make from jars, bottles, cans and bamboo tubs and more, open jar I used fish oil , jar ha lid I used kerosine , single tube or tween tube like you did in this v d o both are work the same thank s.👍👍❤.
I wish you would speak and explain what you're doing and what things are. What is that yellow ground up saying look at stuff that was in the white bowl tight plastic container? Thank You
Interesting, but what is the liquid/fuel transferred from the bottle to the jar? Through the whole video I was thinking, "Ok, it's water and you're going to add some Al and NaOH to burn H2 gas..." But no Al or NaOH, so is it an alcohol, petroleum product, etc? Oh, and I'm going to agree with @Cici_Silo regarding the sound. I very MUCH prefer the ambient sounds of nature and the sounds of work & tools over unrelated, random music choices so many others use! Thanks for that!
Dude, next time show more respect for the audience's time by speeding up, skipping through the perfunctory parts . . . and by the way, what is the fuel? Anyway, it's clever with the self heating loop.
it does not matter. The sand is simply a media being used the fill the pipe whilst it is being bent. If you tried to bend pipe like that without something inside then the walls would simply collapse and you'd just kink the tube, not shape it. Crimping off each end is a bit OTT as a piece of tape would do the same job, stop the sand from running out when you start bending
Description says quartz sand. Only thing not explained is the fuel. It's just.... Not mentioned. And no matter how many people ask in comments, it's not responded to. Just a big glaring hole in the entire thing... The mystery fuel... Which is probably the most important thing to get right.... And most dangerous thing to get wrong....
thoroughly enjoy learning how to do something new without a narrator talking about unrelated whatever. Watching the needed actions to accomplish a goal that are simple to understand is awesome.
i do not believe for one moment that this is burns at 900°C - coppers forging temp is 900 meaning it would be glowing cherry red and is above brasses melting point. why lie?
What is this type of burner called? does it work with Oil, Alcohol or fuel paste? And does it outperform a simple alcohol stove in terms of effectivity?
@@alanadale1945 forget about this silly guessing game. Found out It runs with alcohol. Not Oil / Diesel... methyl alc. ethyl alc. spirit. Still don't know the exact name of this type. They are sold as as "self pressurized alcohol stove" or "burner" and are safer (sealed) and supposed to be more effective than a simple open alcohol burner.
You could place a flower pot upside down on it and upset the billion dollar heating industry. (Sarcasm. I only said that because of the ad that popped up during the video) I liked the video. It shows ingenuity.
That ad is about as useful as those crappy foreign made scissors used in this video. I have the same ones and they cut into my time better than any material that has been cut with them...
that would ad ZERO BENEFIT, NONE WHATSOEVER... You cannot get more heat out of ANYTHING than what is being put into it, period... go back to science class and pay attention this time!
That would be a big mistake in that the glass container holding the fuel would get hotter and hotter being inside the clay pot heating up and would eventually catch fire or explode.
Was that sand, or corn meal he was pouring into the tube,so that the tube would not kink, or bend flat? Would have been nice if there were some sub titles, naming the items, and dimensions in inches. Pretty neat! But what do you use to plug the hole when not in use. so the alcohol, or whatever he was using for fuel, does not evaporate? Tape?
Despite already guessing the answer to my question, I'll pose it anyway: Could that "Candle" be used as the heating element for a copper heated Sand-battery?

I prefer salt or sugar for bending small tubing. Sand can get stuck so easily, while salt and sugar can be dissolved out with water.

Lol
always has to be one smart ass sarcastic bastard out there.
ok.....gratitude , many thanks .... i am so happy you posted this
..wow, you're the best..from all those oil heater videos i've see, this one is most effective and looks eazy to make ! Thank you soo much !!!
I do suggest that a housing, or stand is made to surround this hazardous huge open flame with no safety cut off, and a very stable fueling system that would survive any fall and continue to burn. It's a beast of a design with a huge tank of fuel. Time = complacency to the dangers. Most spirt lamps were used and blown out, heat up something that demanded attention. This thing, and the people who may use it, well I don't see the area around it always be perfectly controlled and zero chance of safe. I suggest design holders that achieve the purpose with efficiency, and this as a inserted heat source.
Oh I do love a video with no talking when I have to guess what's being used.
I am assuming as the jar is sealed, the flame will eventually extinguish itself once it's used the oxygen inside the jar, either that or it will implode.
no, the flame is not running off the oxygen inside the jar.
It is running off the open air oxygen, hence the colour and shape of the flame - the blue cone being the unignited vapour being drawn out of the hole by the venturi effect caused by the preheating of the fuel as it goes round the rings positioned inside the flame. That creates a pressure difference and actively sucks the vapour out of the hole and hence the flame burns hotter (and more noisily) than a simple candle would.
you are correct in recognising that as the fuel level falls a vacuum is being created inside the sealed jar and therefore a point will arise where there is insufficient suction created by the venturi effect to overcome atmospheric pressure trying to go down the tube into the vacuum of the jar. At that point the flame would starve itself of fuel since the wick is carefully (and clearly) shown as being a few mm inside the tube away from the hole, therefore the wick cannot itself burn, and so the flame would indeed go out.
Wouldn't negative pressure draw air in past the wick into the container, the wick is saturated with fuel but air should be able to pass thru it and equalize the pressure
The expansion of the fuel is creating positive pressure. The fuel is not being drawn by suction. Rather, it is being drawn by capillary action which requires neither vacuum nor pressure.
@@judsonsdiscretionarymetalw5866 The jar is being ventilated through the brass pipe, thus no vacuum.
I think that only applies if the wick fits tightly in that tube, if not, watch out. Could be bad..@@wotviewer
had one of these when I was homeless in the winter
they are amazing
You should add a tiny tube to the burn hole so you can cap it when not in use.
Think an adjustable shut-off valve can control the flame and spread?
@@casteg52 unlikely unless you adding presssure to the jar and possibly adding extra oxgen. the wick only allows for some muh transfer of liquid to gas.
Putting sand in the tube before bending it was absolutely clever!
Superglue and bicarbonate of soda would have done just as well to seal the tubes i use it all the time for all sorts of things which i dont want to break or want to seal.
wouldn't handle the heat
You don't want to be breathing in fumes from superglue.
Anneal Your tubing before Forming for better workability.
Nicely done. Also no annoying music. Now what are you using as fuel?
cheap [15$ on aliexpress] alcohol stove... all the numbers on the title are clickbait...
No blabbing non-information that is so annoying either. Great video.
Methylated spirit ( %97 ethanol ) $5 a litre.
Many people are asking about the fuel used. I can’t say for 100% sure but I think it is running on fuel alcohol or denatured alcohol you can purchase from the hardware store. Lamp oil and kerosene tend to refract the light differently such that you would see some rainbow effect when viewing it through glass.
If it hasn't been mentioned the most likely fuel candidate would be white gas, what is used in Coleman lanterns/stoves.
Wouldn't that be just a bit volatile and therefore dangerous?
Most likely alcohol. It's great for all kinds of home made burners and stoves.
Make some moonshine to burn in it
@@hackyman7815 That doesn't put out a very bright flame, though..
70 % isopropyl alcohol?
Isn't the fuel constantly being lost as it vaporizes and leaves through that hole when its not lit? Eventually it would all evaporate wouldn't it?
Excellent.Thank You
Some brass instrument makers use soapy water in their brass tubes and freeze it. Apparently the soap in the water prevents it from bursting. Not sure how well it would work here.
They bend it when it's frozen?
@@barnabyvonrudal1 Yes. The frozen soapy water lets you bend it without collapsing.
What about saltwater?
@@meljane8339 You would have to get it really cold to freeze salt water.
@@therealjammit I am uncertain how well antifreeze/coolant would work in brass
Very nifty to get the wick in both sides (with the black thread). Amazing!
He could have just use on thread, instead of two.
I'm also a great fan of "Farmyard Sound Effects Vol 3"
Very funny! Thanks for the laugh. :)
It's good but Vol 6 was where they really found their signature style.
if you figure out a heat exchanger for it. I could see that being practical for many on-the-go type applications!
Good video love the background sound, it needed more sand in the tube.
I would also say the sand had to be compressed a bit
@@olebendtsen6117 Yes, a bit of give otherwise the tube will split.
This is probably the easist to understand video on how make this kind of burner I have seen. Very nice
Great, indeed! And what is that liquid? Alcohol? Thank you.😀
If you made the hole for the flame smaller? Would the flame be less noisy? Sounds less like a torch?
That was a pretty good idea . I've just got one problem with it. The coil should be spread apart to where the flame or even the flames heat can't get to the tubing. Over a little time the flame will heat up the coil and start going down into the jar of kerosene and it might catch fire or blow up. Maybe try making the tubing like an "n" with the hole at the top so the flame and the flames heat goes upward and not toward the tubing so the tubing will stay cool. 😊 Another thing, it might be better to use a pint size mason jar. The Mason jar flats have a gasket seal on them that would help keep any fumes from escaping from around the lid. Another thing you could do is to make 3 or even 4 of the "n" copper tubes to stick up out of the top of the lid to amplify the heat and you could put stand to hold a small lite weight titanium pot on the stand to cook on. You might even be able to put one of those stove fans that spin from the heat of your stove on top of a stable stand so the fan could push the heat into the room to heat it and not let the small flames heat just go up to the ceiling to be cooled and waisted as the heat travels upward. In a cold room you'd benefit from the heat blowing sideways into the room towards the people that the heat traveling upwards. You might be able to make and put 2 or 3 of those jar heaters on about a 2 foot stand like a coffee table. Then put the jars in the middle of the table and get a cooking grill grate and put bricks on 4 sides of the jars to put the grate on just above the very tip of the flames tips and then cook on it and then sit the stove fan on the grate on the flame to spin the fan to give you warmth. Just a thought. What do all of you think ? 😮
I think you are wrong because the flame is needed to heat the kerosene to get complete combustion and not soot up badly
I have seen alcohol versions of this design reach runaway temps and start barfing ignited liquid fuel everywhere. If the ignited fuel surrounds the glass fuel container it certainly could explode. Ive also seen flashback on a kerosene version where the initial use of carbon felt wicking smoldered back as the fuel started to run dry and blew the mason jar lid and the remaining ignited fuel all over a good part of a friends shop after running fine for a while.
Always use wicking, and cotton wicking seems to be safer and more stable like this youtuber has used.
Maybe having the spacing between the loops a little wider, so the flame orifice can still assist vaporization without directly contacting the tubing, would help?
I have used coarse clean
sand/pebbles for aquariums or perlite in the fuel reservoir for another stove to make sure there was room for fuel but not air.
This design seems reasonable all the same, but please be careful.
Don't kid yourself, even if no explosion.....a runaway heat/fuel situation is a scary moment worthy of respect.
friend is good idea but you just don't use glass and keep more distance fire from your fuel budy!
And the thing that catches my eye is that due to the lack of a valve and the discharge of alcohol, it is possible for it to explode due to the negative pressure caused by the vacuum.
AWSOME ideas !Great brainstorming!👍
Very clever, and effective. I would buy one if someone else would make it.
👍😊
What an excellent and elegantly simple design!
I'm in AWE!
Superb!

Back in old days we used a roll of toilet paper soaked in rubbing alcohol and put into a 1 lb. coffee can to make a heater to warm cold hands, this was before any form of cold weather gear was used. Just take lid off coffee can and light soaked toilet paper, it has almost a clear flame so be careful but it does work, when through, just blow out flame a put coffee can lid back over can. I always kept several of these cans ready for duck hunting...
Metal 1 quart paint can. Holds a roll, tight metal lid. Much easier to put out or store.
Doesn't it burn when you use the toilet paper? They used to use turpentine on goats.
@@jaroge01 if the paper has fuel, the paper will carbonize a bit but not burn. IF you run out of fuel, its gonna toast itself.
pun intended :)
The poorer Koreans lived in huts that were mainly covering a big hole in the ground, and the sole source of heat,, was a can like the size of a large coffee can, and they would poke oles around the bottom of the can, like using a Church key, (Old bottle opener, and can punch before twist off caps, and pull tabs.) Anyway, they would roll cardboard into a very tight roll, and place it in the can, and soak the card board, before poking holes in the bottom of the can. They would let the fuel soak into the cardboard, at that time it was Kerosene, which is not exactly common anymore. But they would cook, and heat the sub level home, even in the harshest Korean winter! As a kid in Fl.we would go down to the local store/gas station, and kerosene pumps, and get a gallon of kerosene, and put it in a paint bucket, and stick cattails in it, and let them soak, till they formed a gel on them, and we had our own torches! ... Well till the stem caught fire and burnt through. Which is why we had spares! We tried drilling a hole in the bottom of a soup can, and pushing the cattail stem through, to protect the stem, and look more like real torches, as seen in the Frankenstein movies! But that didn't work well either, so it was back to just the soaked cattails. 😶
Thx. You work neatly too
The amount of the fuel in that jar how long does it burn it was only like a third full half full?
And what kind of fuel was it?
What fluid is this burning?
Yeah, he doesn't say. Might be isopropyl alcohol.

I like this video thank you for sharing to view and i wish your channel more success
Another way to seal the burner tube to the lid is soldering. Solder will adhere to steel and brass well. Solder before inserting the wick to keep the wick from charing. Have bright shiney surfaces and use flux. Apply heat sparingly, using a blowtorch.
I'd like to see a comparison of this to a much simpler bunsen burner with similar fuel consumption rates (eg 50ml/hr or whatever) In particular looking at relative light output/brightness. To determine if all this effort is really worth it.
what fuel source are you using?
Probably 96 degrees alcohol.
Jet
_"what fuel source are you using?"_ The hint is in the engine that was running in the background when he was filling the glass jar. It was a diesel engine running when he was filling the jar and quit when he was finished filling it.
@@nathanwoodruff9422 He's definitely not using diesel fuel here. Color's wrong. Might be jet a. More likely it's denatured ethanol. Could be kerosene but it looks too thin to me. Quite possibly naptha.
For what it's worth, he's also definitely not getting a 1700 degree flame. His brass pipe would melt at that temp.
@@ColonelSandersLite _"For what it's worth, he's also definitely not getting a 1700 degree flame. "_ Yea, well sorry to be the bearer of bad news but Diesel auto ignites at 210 °C (410 °F) about the same temperature as Jet A. Nowhere near the 1700 delusion you pulled out of some body part. And it is Diesel. The only reason why this person can't state what the fuel is because Diesel heaters in most parts of the world are illegal to own. This video just happens to be of a Diesel heater.
Excellent video!
LOVE THE NATURAL BIRD SOUNDS! Great idea, but why have the loop on the tube? Never mind 😊 I just figured it out. One wants the tube to get hot and transfer heat to the inside of the glass jar. This causes the kerosene to evaporate and the gas’s vapors to expand and push through the brass tube. A torch effect is created at the hole. Very clever! As they say, necessity is the mother of invention.
niceley done
you explained almost everything so what about
Nozzle Diameter ? looks like 1-2 mm
Wick material ? cotton i guess
Wich Fuel ? Alkohol, Petroleum, Gasoline, Diesel
What fuel are you using, kerosene or booze. The flame colour makes it look like its running on booze.
Well if he is using Alcohol then why waste time building this when all you have to do is drink it? Drinking it keeps you warm and buzzed
We can hear a spluttering when burning, maybe there's not enough pressure being created in the tube. I've seen a few other videos of these where you can really hear the jet sound (sounds like sssshhhhhhh). Maybe the hole is to big or the jar too big for perfect/optimal running
Nice cheap easy burner. It wouldn't be too difficult to make a reflector for one side to warm and light a room.
100% Brilliant diy tip.Should/could be illustrated in a survival book because computers wont always be working in survival situations
What kind of fuel do you use?
Thank you.
Best regards.
come on man, use anything you have
Other commenters say 90% alcohol, or methyl alcohol. A better video would have captioned in the materials as he used them, in any language.
"use anything you have" is way better than "use alcohol" . It might mean light or dark.
😂maybe Vodka
NO! Don't use anything you have. Gasoline is NOT to be used here. Probably isopropyl alcohol.
dunno but basic logic says the flame gets hotter because of the fuel.. And as a metal worker and certified mig welder I think I'll call the 1652 degrees a bit shaky.. since at that temp you'd think you'd be melting the copper ...... oh by the way if ppl are amazed at a dual feed lighter I could make one with 100 feeds... to one flame :-\ .... so I'm calling this bs it increase's heat.. cool though... just... follow basics... the only way to increase the heat is by blowing more oxygen into the flame.. why we use oxy acetylene torch's.... lol acetylene wont cut metal
The flame colour indicates that only partial combustion is taking place. This means that the duration of the heating available is less than it might be. Also, smoky flames usually lead to smelly air in the vicinity. Paraffin stoves from an earlier era were very prone to that problem. IMO the design needs more work or possibly a different fuel should be used.
I feel it necessary to explain that you do not fill the jar with any alcohol or liquid heat all the way to the end of the pipes because it will begin to turn it into a flamethrower and there are better ways to make this rocket stove that are a lot safer but kudos to the video creator for making original content and thinking outside the box
What was used for fuel? Second question. Are you telling me this can be used for an exstended time and have no repercussions? Hot copper tube inside sealed jar.
A brass tube was used.
Why does it have to be sealed (I get it could be so it doesn't spill), but how do you avoid underpressure within the glass leading to flame off?
The flame heats the tube hot enough to warm the fuel enough to push it through
AWESOME!!!!
Sand is in the pipe to keep it from kinking or going flat as it is bent around the bolt. Alcohol is the fuel.
Amazing. Nice technique to bend metal pipes! Amazing skill to build that. I'm tempted but not sure I'm game to try 🤕
Needs to be finer sand. It's a common technique.
Amazing how ignorant people always find basic things so amazing.
Not all people were born into lofty academic society where all knowledge is common. @@officermeowmeowfuzzyface4408
Why do you call them ignorant?? I guess that all of us are ignorant about things we haven't heard or come across.
I think fine salt would work well in a small tube like that.
I hope he wasn't being judgemental. But, there is a huge difference in being ignorant, which means you didn't know, and being stupid or an idiot. Which means you are incapable of learning or just won't learn.
Thank friend ; for hare to the young generation who i want to know , but this lamp is a classic one , I used in 1965 to 1979 when I grew up I saw my MOM used it and I asked her how long she has that lamp? and she reply said my father had that lamp a long time a go since I grew up, so I don't know this lamp who invent it, we can make from jars, bottles, cans and bamboo tubs and more, open jar I used fish oil , jar ha lid I used kerosine , single tube or tween tube like you did in this v d o both are work the same thank s.👍👍❤.

read the words below the video...
He explains in the description.
Exactly what kinda fuel was used, it looked thin like isopropyl alcohol, maybe kerosene??
isopropyl alcohol It burns nearly free of smoke, catch is the adjustment of the height of the wick up or down 3 to 5 mm

Interesting, but what is the liquid/fuel transferred from the bottle to the jar? Through the whole video I was thinking, "Ok, it's water and you're going to add some Al and NaOH to burn H2 gas..." But no Al or NaOH, so is it an alcohol, petroleum product, etc?
Oh, and I'm going to agree with @Cici_Silo regarding the sound. I very MUCH prefer the ambient sounds of nature and the sounds of work & tools over unrelated, random music choices so many others use! Thanks for that!
Dude, next time show more respect for the audience's time by speeding up, skipping through the perfunctory parts . . . and by the way, what is the fuel? Anyway, it's clever with the self heating loop.
Is this any different than the bunsen )sp) alc burners they sell on amazon? And if so, how is it different?
Some say if you add a pinch of salt to that alcohol, it will burn brighter.

What liquid is being burned? Alcohol? Acetone?
How long would it last lit with kerosene, which generally burns slower with this type of burner?
Yeah it will last longer on kerosene
Way cool, bro!
what are you putting in the pipe? corn meal or sand??
it does not matter. The sand is simply a media being used the fill the pipe whilst it is being bent. If you tried to bend pipe like that without something inside then the walls would simply collapse and you'd just kink the tube, not shape it.
Crimping off each end is a bit OTT as a piece of tape would do the same job, stop the sand from running out when you start bending
Packing a pipe with sand is an old method of bending without kinking. However it has to be compacted.
Description says quartz sand. Only thing not explained is the fuel. It's just.... Not mentioned. And no matter how many people ask in comments, it's not responded to. Just a big glaring hole in the entire thing... The mystery fuel... Which is probably the most important thing to get right.... And most dangerous thing to get wrong....
What is MDF glue?
This is so cool and smart
can we use copper tubing and what is the diameter of the pipe

What is the grey powder and spray used to seal the pipe to the lid ?
What is the liquid fuel being used?
im guessing Portland cement...
The spray is the high-speed activator for the super glue. Do a search for Mitre mate.
What is this type of burner called?
does it work with Oil, Alcohol or fuel paste?
And does it outperform a simple alcohol stove in terms of effectivity?
The hint is when the guy was filling the glass jar. There was a diesel engine running in the background.

Very interesting
You could place a flower pot upside down on it and upset the billion dollar heating industry. (Sarcasm. I only said that because of the ad that popped up during the video) I liked the video. It shows ingenuity.
That ad is about as useful as those crappy foreign made scissors used in this video. I have the same ones and they cut into my time better than any material that has been cut with them...
that would ad ZERO BENEFIT, NONE WHATSOEVER... You cannot get more heat out of ANYTHING than what is being put into it, period... go back to science class and pay attention this time!
That would be a big mistake in that the glass container holding the fuel would get hotter and hotter being inside the clay pot heating up and would eventually catch fire or explode.
Was that sand, or corn meal he was pouring into the tube,so that the tube would not kink, or bend flat? Would have been nice if there were some sub titles, naming the items, and dimensions in inches. Pretty neat! But what do you use to plug the hole when not in use. so the alcohol, or whatever he was using for fuel, does not evaporate? Tape?
You lazy lazy . Try working things out for yourself . Think use brain also experiment you will learn a ton all by yourself. It is good for the soul👍
@@IANHANDS The video was supposed to provide the info, but skipped that part. I also doubt the claims.
Cool idea, but you can buy a cheap brake line hose bender for a few bucks. No sand needed at all.

Despite already guessing the answer to my question, I'll pose it anyway: Could that "Candle" be used as the heating element for a copper heated Sand-battery?
