In this episode we build a DIY storm kettle commonly refered to by other names such as a Kelly kettle, Ghillie kettle, Hobo kettle, rocket kettle or bush kettle.
We will be using scrap stainless steel and using a Tig welder but you can use MIG or even stainless stick if preffered. Aluminium and Titanium can also be used for this build if you have a AC/DC TIG machine.

Thank You. You have a very lovely family. ... that salamander was confused " what ? no treats? "
Hello Joshua, another great video, I have spoken to you in the past, I am not a metal worker I am a Joiner 74 years old, and really like metalwork allways have, but the things you tackle are really different, and as I said last time you remind me of a good friend who was a fabricator and welder who has retired, but could solve various problems thrown at him, just like you. Please keep your videos coming as they are a pleasure to watch. Best wishes, Geoff Lewis, Wales, UK 🏴🏴🏴
Thank you again Geoff for you kind support. I've got loads of stuff I want to make, got a list of sculptures, power hammer developments, forged items, steam generators and robotic arms etc... Problem I have is I've gone back to full time work and what time I have left my family wants to have. I'm struggling with it really as I'm desperate to fulfill my creative endeavours but my commitments out way it. Soon I hope to finish this stags head sculpture and then make some changes to enable more builds. All the very best. Cheers J
Interesting build. Thank you Joshua.👍
Thank you. cheers J
Thanks for sharing project and thanks for sharing your thoughts.
If you put a small hole in the top near the handle, the water will flow easily when you pour , rather than how it currently "Glugs".. Great Videp and lovely skills. Well done Sir.
Thank you. I'm thinking of re designing elements on it. I would like a piped nozzle that I can plug with a bung to transport water within it. Also a slightly wider base to fit just a bit more fuel. Cheers J
The world needs more folks like you Joshua. 😊
That's very kind of you Matt. I'll do my best to keep making videos and look after my precious family. All the very best. Cheers J
@@joshuadelisle as we say here in the colonies, you go dude!🤣
Great project! I really like the design and I think you did an excellent job on the craftsmanship! I love these types of projects. Thanks for sharing 👍😀
Thank you so much. Cheers J
Great job!
I suggest drilling a small hole in the top, in front of the handle, which will prevent the kettle from sputtering when you pour the hot water.
Thank you. The patterns are in a link in the description. Otherwise a completed version you'll have to search for a Kelly or Gillie kettle. Cheers J
After watching the amount of work that went into this project, £70 for a Kelly kettle looks good value. (and that is most definitely a compliment)
Thank you Shaun. I would like to make more with a few modifications. I use mine every time we go to the woods which nearly every week at the moment. It's a wonderful thing to enjoy something that you made yourself. Cheers J
Great to hear your intention behind creating this, so important to be helping out in these crazy times, and what better way!
Thank you Fynn. Hope you are keeping well. All the very best. cheers J
Awesome design & built..u deserve 5stars from me awesome. thanks for sharing 💕
Thank you so much. Cheers J
@@joshuadelisle your idea of sharing designs for all is Devine🙏 may u be blessed ❤️for all that u have shared. Create a logo for yourself bro like “KRalyn 3D” which he allow the use of his design for free but include his logo for his hard work. That’s cool too. This world is going towards sharing and giving and I believe all you have given are coming back to you many times.💕

At 17 minutes into the video I was expecting you to say “ahhhhhh Yorkshire Tea” - brilliant vid Joshua, absolutely wonderful. Superb designed and constructed billy. - you are indeed one clever fellow. I would never be able to make one as useless at welding but really admired the design and build process. Great to see your lovely family. Your explanation of power losses in electrical distribution was impressive (my own trade was in HV and LV Electrical distribution and maintenance). I am really looking forward to your “power generation” - steam? Cannot wait. Take care and stay safe.🙏👍
Thank you so much. I'm super excited with it too. Should be very simple to if works how I plan it to. Cheers J
I was Yorkshire tea too!
Great video, it demonstrates just how far apart peoples definitions of DIY are! 🤣 I’m thinking some painting, a shelf in the garage! Maybe I’ll have to upscale a bit!
This is pretty cool. You should manufacture and sell them. I’d buy one.
Great design
Thank you Adrian. Cheers J
Fantastic, interesting and informative - with your adorable family making a nice part of it. Went very quiet while the water boiled... hope they got some tea as well! :-)
Thank you. It got a bit cold for them and it was a little late so I stayed and finished the video but we had hot chocolate the next day all together. Cheers J
Very fun watching you build this! I look forward to seeing you build more!
Thank you, its not a popular video and certainly not many are downloading the cut files. I love my kettle and use it nearly everry week on the fire or out in the woods. I would love to improve the design but it would be a loss in revenue and time if I do. cheers J
@@joshuadelisle i especially liked learning about using the aluminum when tig welding stainless. I have a Kelly kettle. I took a college class on welding and am still learning more about different kinds of welding. I subscribed to your channel a while back but this video just showed up in my feed. So much to learn! I'll be following more of what you do. You have awesome content. Btw I am a retired firefighter/emt and a farrier. I do some blacksmithing but always want to learn more. I wish you the best.
@@ahorseman4ever1 thank you so much. I've got more metal work to share soon. Cheers J
Great build sir.
And what a fabulous place to bring up the kids.
hope you all stay safe.
Thank you Jo. All the very best. cheers J
Really cool!
Thank you Steve. Cheers J
cheers! nice idea, but the milk-bottle with unicorns is the best 🦄 😁
Thank you, my daughter was annoyed at me for using her flask...
@@joshuadelisle tell her: the bottel is now famous 😄
Nice project. But as it is a "storm kettle" perhaps you also want to make a fire box for it that is sealed against the weather (like the Kelly's) and not open to the wind and rain.
My thoughts exactly. I would also put a vent hole in the base of that fire pot and then you’ll boil water in 5 to 8 minutes instead of 10 to 15 minutes. My Kelly scout boils water in 5 1/2 minutes
Great video, enjoyed the build of this.
Thank you Rob. Cheers J
Jossua very impressed, witb your kettle i like the fact you have a solid handle.
Its difficult to weld alloys, i have done oxy asetelene welding 50 years ago. Difficult to weld as you can punch a hole through it.
You have mixed ferros and non ferrus metals togeth, you may get oxcy asidic action between these metals in time as it is in contact with water. Time will tell.
But well done.
Thank you. There is no mixing however. it's all 304 stainless steel including the screws. Cheers J
Awsome Joshua
Thank you Lee
I just found your channel Joshua, and was instantly impressed with your skills and delivery. This project is quite impressive. I've subscribed, and now I need to learn TIG!
Thank you very much for your kind encouragement. I hope you enjoy my other videos and I'll be doing more videos very soon. All the very best. Cheers J
Great project, the chimney would look great, and be easier to weld, if it were the same teardrop/ellipse as the body. Top work. Keep it up and stay safe.
Maybe but stainless gets a little hard to bend by hand when its that small. good idea though. cheers J
Great video!! I am a new subscriber, love the channel dude!
Liked, Subscribed, and All Notifications.
I Love It!
I'm a HUGE fan of DIY, and I like your style.
I stumbled across your channel on a search. (diy kelly kettle)
Keep up the Great Work!
Thank you so much. I use mine every weekend taking my girls into the woods with a hammock and we have tea and noodles and sausages on a stick. I'm welding a tube on mine for a spout and getting a wooden bung made so I can transport water already in it. I may make another out of aluminium too for it to be lighter in weight. All the very best. Cheers J
@@joshuadelisle Fun times, cherish the fleeting memories! (They grow up so quickly)
Be aware that aluminium may have harmful properties. Due Diligence...Watch out for all!
Great Content!
@@mysterytechknowledge3664 thank you. I'll make sure I use a food grade version. All the very best. Cheers J
@@mysterytechknowledge3664 after looking at some articles I think food grade aluminium doesn't exist but using aluminium for cookware could lead to altzimers.... Thank you for keeping me in the know. Cheers J
Great craftsmanship, not sure I favour the two-piece design but I appreciate the rationale behind the design. Did no good for wanting a TIG welder and knowing how to use it though:P
I reckon if you put a small hole up nearer the handle, it will pour smoothly.
Your right. Cheers J
So if using a central triangle reduced the numer welds from 4 to 3 then wouldn’t using an oval reduce it from 3 to 2? And if you’re going that far you might just as well reduce the number of pieces you have to make into semi circles by roling the shape of the inside to match the outside but smaller reducing the number of welds to make the central tube from 2 to 1. And if you then go on to get rid of the internal taper that would drastically simplify welding for the top and bottom pieces. I’d also recommend welding on a funnel around the spout so that it’s easier to get the water inside. Other than those tweaks I’d recommend, excellent job and fantastic welds!
If I'm going to invest the time to weld my own, it's going to be titanium from thin-wall tube, since storm kettles aren't available in ti yet. I just ordered a .75L Petromax storm kettle in stainless, and while they're expensive, they're way better made than I can cobble together in 3 hours, which is ~ the amount of time it took to earn the $ to buy it.
Love it!
I saw what looked like redwood branches for part of your kindling...you have redwoods where you were visiting?
Love your work and my daughter loves your horse head do you make and sale them ? cheers nz
Great video, I can only dream of having your skill level! If you still have the Rohr 200 mi Mig. I would love to see how you set it up for different thicknesses/ applications. I have the same welder, which doesn't come with a guide. If you have the time to look at my videos, you will see i am managing to 'stick metal together' but i haven't mastered the settings!
Hi, what size and type of filler rod would you reccomend please? Is 1.6mm 316 okay for 304 1.2mm sheet? Or should I use 308 2mm or something else? PS, the plans are great. Thanks
Hi thank you so much. Yes always go for a higher grade filler so 316 on 304 is good. I used 1.6 filler on mine but if you can match the material thickness you'll get nicer control. Cheers J
great video as usual, shame you got the kids wound up for tea in the woods them didn't show them getting any!
Keep safe, and keep the great content coming - Dave
Hey Dave. Hah ha yea we didn't do it that day. They we're all moaning it was too cold and wanted to watch Barbie on the TV.... I had a nice bit of peace and quiet. We did have a cuppa the next day and shared it on Instagram. All the very best. Cheers J
Thanks for explaining the algorithm. Sure I'll like and comment.
I am an engineer myself, nearing retirement, with not a lot saved. I plan on collecting tools and skills over the next 5 - 8 years to make products for sale to finance retirement. Your presentations are great for metal based products. I especially like the tooling. I have a few years of radio production test experience. You have a coal forge. Any plans for a gas forge?
Thank you Mike. I do. In the future I'm building a new workshop and will have a new coke forge and gas forge to build and will make my plans for those available too. All the very best. Cheers J
Hi Josh, you could look to the past at the 'Sirram' kettle, unlike a storm ⛈ kettle, this one ☝️ has tubes rather like a boiler running from top to bottom, it would also require a separate wood burning hobo stove like most IKEA ones seen on here or another heat source.
The Sirram would have originally sat on a solid fuelled range cooker. Trust this gives you a few ideas 💡.
Great video tutorial as usual..Thank you..here is the US a lot of people use those large bridge rectifiers like 1600v 200amp for $21usd to modify Chinese welders to DC from AC flux core mig machines and AC stick welders, some and a tig torch to them for scratch start and some even and a High frequency starting board bought off ebay or amazon very cheaply..some add capacitors to filter the current to the torch but many do not..many video tutorial on the subject under " Harbor freight welder conversion " HF is our national Chinese tool shop in the states..they sell 3 different tiers of equipment quality's.. Chicago.. Titanium..Vulcan..its interesting to see each country get the same Chinese equipment just under different brand names..all probably made in the factory's..
Thank you. Yeah I got a bridge rectifier for when I tried to use my AC stick welder as a 48v power source for my induction forge. I've got some good use out of my cheap Monday MIG recently, I'm pleased that it still works fine and has paid for it self very quickly. Cheers J
Love the design Joshua! Very efficient. How long did it take to boil that I guess about 1.8 litres of water? Your reasoning for the triangular design is very sound, from my own experience rolling a tube by hand is a nightmare unless you are prepared to waste a lot of material and cutting off the straight ends! I admire you what it seems to me a commitment to have regard for the environment in the reuse of materials and not waste things, a regard for your own three children's future I would imagine. Good on you Sir. I've only just found your channel last night and subscribed immediately having seen the stags head outside your workshop. Now I have just watched the five stag bookend videos and as a retired wood and metal craftsman am in awe of your conceptual design and building skills. May it long continue. You and your family stay safe in these horrible times, I'm fearful that the easing of the lockdown is going to come back and bite us all in the arse.
Hi Joshua, am about to order your plans. Did you back purge/flux the back of the welds when you made it? I haven't got the stuff for that but will do it if you recommend it? Thanks!
Hi Devon. If you're tig welding stainless and want a sanitary finish on the inside I would highly recommend a back purge. Is not necessary with aluminium welding. Stainless stick welding will require removal of the slag from the inside which is near and impossible. I used a simple T piece with a valve to do mine. All the very best. Cheers J
@@joshuadelisle Thank you! I shall do the same in that case. Best of luck with the channel and I look forward to your next installment :)
@@DevonDaggers thank you so much. Cheers J
If there were one short coming of the Kelly kettle I would say it is the requirement not to run it dry. ( this will wreck the kettle)
- In my mind the benifits of being able to run dry is to utilise the compact fire and chimimy effect with a cooker on the exhaust top ( as per the Kelly kit). This would add wonderfully to the versitility of the stove tkeing it well beyond just a kettle the must be boiling / heating water even when one may need the heat for the cooktop alone
Parabéns, GOSTEI bastante. Like. César from BRASIL.
Love this. I especially loved the handle, great idea.
What camera do u use Josh?
Also if u ever want some custom music made for the background of your videos, would be happy too, let me know. (No charge of course).
Hey Tom! I would love that. I use a Lumix fz 1000 with external microphone. Must catch up again when it's safe. Cheers J
Well if u ever need a specific musical thing let me know. Or if u want just some random background stuff that's cool as well. I know what copyright can be like.
Great little project, I can offer a possible easy improvement. Check out the heavy haulage exhaust workshops. Perfect heavy gauge stainless tube/pipe in many sizes. Just a thought. They may even have an offcut bin or scrap bin. Good luck.
Thank you Geoffrey. Good idea. Cheers J
Hey Joshua
Well done again! Works a treat!
Have you considered making a stainless mini cooker for tenting at at all?
Can’t wait for the “diy” power supply 😜
Cheers
Thank you. I am going to do a mini stove with boiler for a tiny house. I like the fold away light weight ones for tents. Good idea. Cheers J
Love the video instead of sticking the design straight onto metal use masking tape on the metal first the stick design ontop of masking tape there is no cleanups
Good idea. cheers J
When/where can I get one of these
WOLF for sure.
Its coming. cheers J
Please can you organise selling the pattern for the storm kettle. PLEASE
Thank you. It's in the description. Cheers J
how much cuw juice you putting in ur tea there lad like eh? Glad you took brew sack out first though!
Only a Brit would need a tea kettle for "survival" :D
Weld.com here on TH-cam has a video of welding aluminium with DC tig using helium. Blew me away.
Interesting! I'll have a look at that. They do great videos. Cheers J
@@joshuadelisle let me know what you think.
638 👍Great kettle thanks!
If i had like half of your welding skills i'd be making alot more stuff
Thank you. Cheers J
Is this for sale?
Hi. The patterns are. I'm working on making a new type to make and stock on my Etsy shop next year. Cheers J
Bathsheba Grossmann was her name?
Yes find her on Facebook. or otherwise search for metatron sculpture
@@joshuadelisle thank you.
😬👍😍
A este modelo sólo le agregaría, en la parte superior, tres o cuatro patas para poder cosinar y aprovechar el fuego
Fabbing skills, check. Great design, check. Cute family, check. Bushcraft skills, check. Explaining the process, including science, check. Now you're just showing off dude! Seriously though, this is very impressive.
Thank you. I love it. All the very best. Cheers J
My factory is still running in newport , still at full tilt and job still available to my knowledge think its £13 +an hour if your interested we did discuss it before , william hare newport (risca) np116ey drop in a cv .
Thank you. We've got a little coming back now. I would probably go contracting or do more of my own commissions if I do need to do more. I appreciate it though, we'll see how everything pans out. Cheers J
Дуже маленький отвір для води, не почистити, і заливать воду важко.
Of course, this is way beyond the skills and tool sets of most people. You can buy a Ghillie kettle on line for $115.
They used to be £50. I may start making mine to sell at that price. Cheers J
How come everyone just likes to have open campfire in the woods? Then call the firefighters for help...
..jesus, how many different pocket knives & multitools do you carry with you into woods, man?! :D
never enough... cheers J
sorry, got amused by that and forgot to thank you for sharing, and congratulate on the idea& execution! My manners, eh...
