Made one from your design for my tent, but I didnt put a handle on it, I use the top for cooking, Heating and cooking all in one, Works great. Cheers Robert.
Open flame heaters in a tent, what could possibly go wrong?
Dave, if you fail to set the tent on fire, you could always slash your wrists with the edge of the cans.
@@mrfitz96 being a grown man noting goes wrong.but you would know nothing about that a GIMP
Dave i agree. i cant believe your comments men/child comes to mind wow.
Despite all the bad rap about what you were using your heater for in a tent I'm sure you're an adult understand fire and flame burn things and you use extreme caution cuz I know I would I'm not a child grown man and know exactly what I'm doing when I'm doing it thanks for the comments All
In America that carbon felt can be purchased at Home Depot, Lowes or Menards. It's in the plumbing section.
you do realise that i will never get round to building one of these as every day there is one better than the last and i am chasing my tail😂
Get experimenting mate and set fire to your table :) we all have
Thanks! And bless your little cotton socks! 👍 😁
another inspiring video Rob 🙂, may I politely suggest to anyone who may be in doubt if they have "an ordinary sock" in their possession, a pair of *jeans (denims) with a tubular section or strip cut off makes a good replacement.
*cotton denim (twill), not that lycra stretchy stuff.
That’s a good idea. I tried a cheap cotton washcloth but the thread was too lose and it burned up instantly.
I never would have thought I would have enjoyed a channel about rocket stoves and heaters, but i really look forward to watching your videos. Thanks for the great content
Its about 58 other categories also! Scroll back... theres nothing he can't figure out. 'Specially in the members section. Best of the Web in this solar system
Thanks a lot, Robert, I've accidentally amputated both my legs AND arms because of the sharp edges, but at least I'm warm
I love that your recent videos are about how to get warm! Our prayers are with Europe right now as the cold moves over the region! You could be saving lives with these videos!
I have no doubt I’m not the first to call you an International treasure!
I’m planning on joining the channel. You are worth it!
Hi Robert, thanks ever so much for all your videos... Much appreciated. I've made a bit of an upgrade to mine. In the interest of safety and stability, I've epoxy glued a few magnets to the bottom of the fuel can so that when it rests on the base plate it actually keeps it from falling over when accidentally bumped. My bottom plate it rests on is made of solid steel, so that provides a nice connection, and some weight as well. Thought I'd share that.
I like this, it sounds like an excellent idea, and one I could easily steal when I make mine. Fantastic idea mate.
Wouldn't the magnet degrade when heated? The structure is metallic and it will conduct heat to the base easily.
@@copernicofelinis yes two fold, magnets will degrade if it gets too hot so will the epoxy, I think in the region of 200 deg C might be wrong BUT surely magnets would negate the need for epoxy, metal can and metal base plate ?? unless either isnt ferrous
@@copernicofelinis good point, but so far it's doing wonderfully. no issues whatsoever. The bottom of the can doesn't get hot at all due to the wicking effect of the carbon felt I've got rolled up in there I guess. can easily be touched when burning. temp goes up around midway towards the top of the can
@@povvercrazy the epoxy is just to keep them from sliding around the base when moving the can and to make it easier to remove the can without the magnets making up their own mind whether they choose the base or the can to stick to. This way they stay in place in the spaced out arrangement I've chosen on the can
Made one a couple weeks ago. Turns out the pure carbon felt was not ‘pure’, and although it started great , it suspiciously smelled like burning plastic ( after 10-20 minutes). Wouldn’t light second fill and when disassembled the felt fell apart 😖. I ordered another carbon felt - this time a welding blanket rated 1400 ‘ F. No worries- works like a charm. Brilliant!!! I tip my to you Mr Smith
Many thanks. I thought I was doing something wrong when I had this same problem and was disappointed. The felt I used looked the part but became shorter and slowly disappeared down the gap and stuck to the sides of the tin and gauze. I was sure I had bought the right felt as Robert suggested,
Yeah, I ran into the same deal. I did look ALL OVER the package for it to say 100% carbon fiber but nothing was said.
Until watching these DIY channels I NEVER even Thought that people could survive life not knowing about Sharp or Pointy or Hot or Whatever. My brain is blown. I guess the Nanny State has done it's job.
It's not the States duty to make sure your parents pass on useful knowledge.
@@AnalyticalReckoner You're right, they do the contrary.
You dont know the half of it.
@@AnalyticalReckoner .... Let me just remove 4 words from that. "It's not the States duty to pass on useful knowledge." *MEANWHILE THE STATE* *puts gun to your head for tax money for child education services*
@@AnalyticalReckoner OH and I forgot they also threaten you and or will take your child from you if you're not making sure they're getting an education... So like literally even the exact version of your sentence is wrong lol.
Great work. Just one more thing. One should consider incorporating a way to put out the flame for when the room is warm enough.
I agree. I would like to see a slightly more complex version where the height of the flame could be controlled or easily put out as well
Yea just made the sock version..how do I put it out before I light it here to text 🤔
@@peterjohnston4472 I had only thought being able to put it out would be a good idea. As to how, maybe someone might present a better idea but my first thought would be to use another can that is taller than the mantle, like maybe a hair spray can or lysol can.
The can must also be able to somewhat loosly slide over the mantle. Not too tight nor too loose. And remember the mantal will have expanded a little while it's hot.
If you can't find a suitable diameter can then you might use two cans. To do so you'll need to
1) know the circumfrence of the mantle, maybe using a string. And add a milimeter or two.
2) Then divide that by four to get 1/4th the circumference.
3) Then take two round steel hair spray cans or lysol steel cans and cut down the length of each can to get two curled sheet from the cans.
4) Now first mark the center of the curve in the can top and bottom.
5) Then measure out 1/4 the circumfrence from before on each side of your sheets, and make a new mark on each side of your first mark from top to bottom of each sheet.
6) Then take two block of wood longer than each sheet is tall and place them together with the steel sheet in between such that the outside marked lines from before line up with the pieces of wood going from the bottom mark to the top mark.
7) Screw the pieces of wood together and use it as a metal break used to put clean sharp bends in the sheet metal from the cans, and put an 90 degree outward bend from the sheet's curl on each side of both sheets.
8) Then you can bring the two curled sheets with the outside bent tabs together forming a circle inside, and use vise grips to hold the tabs so that you may drill two holes on each outward bent tab, and secure each side with 2 short bolts and nuts.
@@kreynolds1123 Use cooking oil instead and other materials as fireproof bricks.. Simple tl handle and easier to put out.. 👍
@@helengren9349 In my experence cooking oils, especially those with a high smoke temp, tends to burn sooty. With a small space heater like these, extra care must be taken to ensure all the fuel is burnt. And if its not waste vegetable oil, the fuel is expensive. And waste vegetable oils tend to be high smoke temp oils that burn sooty.
I ordered a square of carbon felt from you. I live in the US and it was still a good deal considering the stuff I had bought from other places turned out to be nothing but plastic.
I like the new mesh design, Not all socks are pure cotton so you may want to clarify that.. I have a 100% cotton washcloth I'll be using to make a burner or 2. Lots of stuff works as wicks, plain paper towel, fiberglass mat, exhaust wrap, blue shop towels, cotton towel, cotton balls
How about adding a concrete base, to lower the center of mass, so that it would be almost untoppable?
Also, instead on a single aluminum sheet as reflector, make them two an inch apart, add lateral surfaces and fill the innards with sand to store heat for when the flame is gone.
the fuel can has space for rocks or bolts or what ever to be added in if thats a concern. But then again, it should be placed smartly to begin with and not having people playing around near it.
Another way could be to use a pipe filled with sand with holes in the bottom letting the fuel inside and the sand wicks the fuel up to where you light it, or just replace the sock with sand and smaller holes. Have not built it my self, but should work. Sand lasts forever too. Sand wicks water up a few cm or more, not sure how it responds to the viscosity of the fuel, maybe something to experiment with Rob?
i believe vermiculite also should work, but not sure
Maybe perlite?
This works like the old lanterns with tubular wicks. It has to be a tube so it can't be filled with sand. You could use a pipe within a pipe, which would be fine, but you run the risk of one pipe moving and changing the thickness of the wick.
I'm going to be testing "pig mat" or AKA oil drying mats commonly used in industry and automotive environments as a wick using one of your project designs, I'd imagine it may work well but need to try.
I get alot of pleasure and amusement out of your videos. You seem to have a great gift. Your creations are wonderful. Keep up the good work.👍
Brilliant as always! For those people who have already made their heaters using carbon felt but who want to partake of the "old sock" atmosphere, I recommend sprinkling a little parmesian cheese over the assembly before lighting :)
Use LImburger, and you don't even need heat, lol.
@@funigurl72 Or Gorgonzola :)
On top of old smoky, all covered with cheese. I cooked me some bacon, and eggs over ea-sy.
@@stewartpalmer2456 LOL
Here in the States, we have heat shields for wall protection while soldering copper pipes in plumbing. They are carbon fiber. Good stuff. Tool/welding departments in big box hardware/home improvement stores may have them. Peace!
Very cool. It's great how we have all the things to make this at hand.
You'll want to burn away the inner plastic coating of the cans before you expose them to heat, or they can release some pretty noxious fumes.
I think only aluminium cans have a plastic coating and tinplate doesn't. That being said though, you're going to set it on fire anyway.
@@CallMeMrChainmail The steel (not aluminium) tins I used had a plastic inside coating, I was quite surprised.
@@pa_maj.MARTINI-van-MAN it's a protective coating to keep the metal reacting with the food. It may or may not be bpa free, so something else to check on with your food, if that's a personal call to arms :)
@@pa_maj.MARTINI-van-MAN Gross. Tinplate doesn't need a coating. I wonder if they're just using normal steel and coating it with plastic.
@@CallMeMrChainmail The cans had a little rust on the outside, they had been sitting in a moist environment. I'd say you are correct about normal steel with a coating, who knows what we're consuming. Tinned food was good for a long time, I'm not so sure about that now. Not all tins on tinned food is equal, that's for sure.
I would add some of the carbon felt beneath the top cake pan. That would aid in accidental touching and getting burnt and also aid in keeping the handle cool.. However, if you don't put a handle on the top and you make a sturdy burner, you could use the top of cake pan a place to sit a pot. If you invert the top cake pan and attach the aluminum to the outside, you could put water in it to make a steam heat/humidifier. LOTS of options.
I absolutely love your channel!
You remind me of my late Great Uncle Pete. I've so many good memories of him in the Garage (more like a Laboratory )working on things I didn't understand...LOL
You however, definitely are a good teacher! 👍 👍
Thanks so much for the informative and heartwarming videos (no pun intended)🙂🤣
Like a modern day blue Peter survival show..... Much needed in these tough times Rob.... Thanks for the show., tip... When filling pour into a can first so you don't overfill....
The most awesome part is that seeing your video I can easily tell that you have fun doing it. It is great.
These are great heaters. Thank you, for sharing the instructions.
Hi Robert, that´s really a lovely heater. I was trying to order some of those carbon felt in your store but unluckyly everything is sold out... so I will try it with some old socks too. The heater looks brilliant, thanks for sharing those nice skills
This looks like a big old kerosene lamp, just with a reflector instead of glass, and a mesh tube instead of glass tube. Modified for methanol. Way to go to use a sock as wick :) Of course it works, and works well!
What an absolutely fantastic video, thank you Robert! Ya know, if carbon felt is made from wool or cotton, then perhaps it can be made in a similar fashion to making char cloth, a classic bushcraft skill. I don't know about the other folks who can't find carbon felt, but I'd find it exceptionally empowering to learn how to make the stuff and learn about it's various uses.
Love the comment regarding the sharp edge 🤣🤣🤣, you make a big difference to all people you get in touch with in these videos. And regarding extra free socks I have also several loners, since I always seem to have 1 extra sock who doesn’t have a mate after meeting with my washing machine😂
Why do I also have loner socks?
Thank you so much for all your effort making us freeze a bit less. I made one yesterday and i works great. Today i did put my heat powered stove fan on it and that made the hot air to circulate all over the room :)
Bravo, thanks! I could watch your videos all day!
What a clever little project. Love this sort of thing.
Thanks Robert excellent video excellent series on self DIY heating. I've been experimenting myself with different versions of this and I'm getting ready to use old jeans material blue jeans in fact flattened and rolled to use as the wick and I'm also experimenting with tapered cans those such as like beer cans that have the aluminum tapering it makes a awesome flame and it swirls automatically.. keep up the great work stay warm..🤔👍🇺🇸
I can't speak for people in other countries, but the carbon felt showed up immediately on Amazon when I looked for it. It's now in my two cans. I haven't lit mine yet. I now have two different kinds of mantles to try out. The first one is the same as Robert used in the first video. The second mantle I made is a little bit thicker--almost like a small expanded metal grating. I'm thinking that one will take longer to heat up than Robert's wire mesh.
I just salvaged a piece of old carbon felt to use for a wick, thank you for teaching us great ways to to stay warm🙏
Marvelous, you made this look easy.
I love this heater. I made one but I used NO WICK. I simply put a smaller can with no top in the outside can. A little fuel in the small can gets lit and as the little can floats on the fuel in the big can it heats/gassifies the fuel in the large can, which passes out the gap between the cans and burns. Hope you like the super easy no wick version. It's almost like a penny stove.
I do like it mate - nice one
@@ThinkingandTinkering
Hi Robert, I'm looking at building this as a room heater , will fibre glass insulation work as a wick ? As I'm not keen on breathing in burnt sock . If fibreglass isn't suitable ,I'd very much appreciate a link to the correct type of carbon felt as I really want to build your original carbon felt version .I look forward to your reply. Thanks for the great videos .
Trying to picture this.... So 2 cans. The outside larger can has the top removed only. The smaller inside can also has only the top removed and floats on the liquid -at a constant level. I am assuming the mesh (what size mesh is everyone using) is attached to the inside floating can. Maybe safety wire would work if wound it around tightly. The fuel is always in contact with the mesh and wicks up the mesh which is between the 2 cans. Correct? If so, does the fuel wick up high enough when the fuel is low in the outside can and the inside can is floating low?
@@slrs3908 yes and it stays hot and in turn heats the fuel in the large can. The mesh is on the outside of the larger can so that the inner can is free to move up and down with the fuel level. A little fuel is put into the inner can and lit to get the gassification of the main fuel in the larger started. No wicking only gassification of the fuel in the bigger can which floats up the space between the two cans and ignites
@@davidjacobs828 Just be sure to use a 100% cotton sock and use the part below the elastic bits.
I built one and used lamp wick which I was able to buy by the yard. I cut it to length and set it in side by side around the can. Works fantastic.
Your technique is awesome.
I wish I could see you coming up with those ideas.
One quick question, do I need to remove the googly eyes from my sock puppet before putting it in the can. I will be down one "actor" but I will be staging much warmer puppet shows through the winter....always a trade-off ;) Thanks
I stuff the gap between the cans with a bit of loft insulation, readily available in your loft!
Leave a small gap at the top and then stuff a piece of stove rope around to finish it off. Stove rope comes in various thickness, choose one that is slightly bigger than the gap in your burner, which depends on the cans you use.
I'm finally working on one now! I'm using a Shammy cloth material which is super absorbent. I need to build the burner holder still and then will upload a video on how it works!
Great work!
Another brilliant video, keep going Robert.
Carbon felt is readily available on ebay, approx £7 for a piece 12" x 8". Just waiting for my aluminium sheet to arrive then away we go 😄

I like you for the simple fact that you call out the idiots for being idiots.
The info in the videos are also enjoyable and interesting.
That flame looks very soothing. Gets me thinking about Christmas around the corner!
the bright orange infrared fireball at the top puts out a lot of warmth.
I made one of these. They work great!
But I had some difficulty snuffing it out. I tried a large towel but it had the tendency to catch on fire. I finally snuffed it out by wrapping with a sheet of carbon felt. This burner seems to go even when almost starved of air. I think there needs to be a better way of snuffing it out or regulating the flame like a oil lamp does.
i live month to month like a lot of Americans. i took four 1" wicks and fixture that fit on jars. with an old 6" stove pipe about 6" long tapered down into a foot long 4" pipe, at the top of the 4" pipe i made a stainless mesh 6" long with a cap at the top. i live in a metal on metal trailer, anyone that lives in one knows, they are very drafty. i can heat a 144sq room when the temp is down to 20 (-4c) P.S. i also have a 5 gal clay pot at the top, old bricks work, a bolder works.. lol.. love your videos sir,, keep them coming. wishing everyone a warm and cozy winter with love ones. yes its tall but im warm.. lol
Thanks, It got shared on a Homesteading and off grid group on gab.
Considering this is about making it more budget, I thought I'd add that the funnel to refuel it doesn't need to be an actual funnel. I certainly wouldn't want to be using a fuel funnel for food after the fact, not that it'd probably do much harm, but still.
You can just cut the bottom off a suitablably shaped bottle, and it'll work just as well for this purpose. Shampoo or soap dispensers are a good option.
Thank you sooooooo very much! Very creative! Very useful!
That is beautiful!
I do love your videos, they are so useful and interesting.
Brilliant! Thank you!
Awesome. Competences. Pure brilliant aye.
Thank you Robert You a very clever man , plus point great video's In 2022 where we need alternative method of heating
I made the previous version with the carbon filter but turned out it wasn't pure carbon so used cotton instead.
I lit it outside and eventually got it going.the problem I encountered was that after a while the centre tin shot up in the air. I may have made the small hole in the top too large.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Love all your content Rob, brilliant.
Great stuff as always.
Oh how I LOVE your informative videos and your energetic personality. More people need to adapt and radiate that energy. QUESTION: shame on me for asking and this, does it matter if the sock is 100% cotton, wool, or a combo of synthetic ingredients. Most socks worn today are synthetic.
Thank you and keep sharing your great videos.
Burned synthetic fumes are not good to inhale... It burns/ melts quickly as well.. Remember building in London, that was insulated with some synhetic stuff? There are vids that show how our homes can burn in seconds because of all syntetics we have around us.. Curtains, sofas, beds, clothes, etc...
Mr. Murray I'm in the process of collecting all the bits and pieces for making a meth heater. Because I'm shocked at the price of baking trays in Ireland 7/ 8 euros up to 16/17 and the cost of knobs and handles I've come up with the idea of a lantren. At 50 euros it is all encompassing with a door ect. I'm so looking forward to see how it works out. Thank you for your inspiration and knowledge.
P.s. the carbon felt is a godsend as I need some for my dehumidifier and I didn't know what it was and the makers wanted 40 Stirling for 4× 8 ins. Now I've just purchased a lifetime supply for 20. Thank you, Ruth.
Cooking meth and making heat is not the same😮lol
Thank you for your interesting Videos,I must try this one.
Hi Robert, love the infrared heater, but iv only managed 45 min burn time on full can.
I haven’t used the carbon fibre wick yet as still waiting delivery.
Used kitchen paper, usual wick from Parafin stove & both get a good burn but not the 4 hour burn you mentioned.
Any help appreciated 😀🙏if it burnt longer it would be perfect answer to not turning the gas boils on 👌
Best wishes
Love the channel 👍👍👍👍
Old T-shirt works well too. Great vid. 👍
I would offer a suggestion to put a magnet in the bottom of the burner with the fuel to make it a little less likely to tip over if it gets bumped
Carbon Felt is in the plumbing section at Lowes and Home Depot…impressive and well done!
Thanks from Chiang Mai Thailand, need that soon winter time is coming :-)
Great video
Excellent video and good fun.
Naughty boy Robert .An open container of methanol next to an open flame 🤣🤣🤣
Looks like it would make a great greenhouse heater. Can u do a how to make one with a bigger methanol tank and some sort of thermostatic control so it maintains a stable temperature.
In the USA, Carbon felt blankets are sold in plumbing departments, and are used when you solder by flame, to keep the wood or the wall behind it from igniting.
Nice tip, thank you!
@@ogi22 Those blankets are only the size of a sheet of paper...
@@toml.8210 fold it once, fold it twice... Thickness goes up exponentially ;)
@@ogi22 I've the plumbers use it. you only need the one layer, since it burns at 2500C
@@toml.8210 sure, as a heat resistant protection, one layer would be fine. But a paper thin wick is not that perfect. It needs more surface for liquid to climb up. That's why i said about folding it. It's about creating as many micro-channels as possible for the fuel to go up.
I made one of these (just like Robert's, 1702, with Carbon felt)) but I put my handles on the reflector on each side of the top. so I can place a POT on top, to heat water, or cook something.
Fantastic design and video great great great
thanks so much
A old sock would work in a emergency type situation.
I want to try rockwool as the wick also
That socks !! xD I also saw somebody doing his own carbon foam like some are doing with wood, but with bread ! So you can cook the shape you want, before ^^
Great idea
I had a slight problem when I made this.
I didn't have an old sock but a mate had a wind sock so I used that.
The problem was that it was made of thick plastic sheeting and didn't fit between the cans so I used a 205 litre barrel with a dustbin inside, and it fitted rather well.
I couldn't remember exactly what you said to use as fuel but knew it ended in "L", so I looked online and found petrol and ammonal. I couldn't decide which, so I used both. Ammonal to fill the dustbin and petrol around the windsock.
Anyway, I put it in my living room.
It lit very well and gave out quite a bit of heat.
Unfortunately, it also blew up the street and I am now in prison for reckless endangerment.
I feel that perhaps you could have mentioned this slight downside to the design as it currently stands.
😅
Phew! Good job you weren't making the tin can version or you would surely have lost at least two fingers what with the sharpness of the cans and all which would only serve to add to your already considerable woes! Hope your post incineration incarceration is going well .... but somehow, I doubt it 😉
@@andrewbarker3210 You're so right.
Sorry, got to go. Big Leroy wants to visit my cell again 😵💫
Thanks for the awesome vids.
The thing that makes the removable mantle good is it's easier to extinguish 👍
The same hardware stores who sell the stainless mesh, usually also sell wicks for kerosene heaters. I would recommend using those wicks.
definitely. with a large cookie tin incorporated for fuel tank and center air vent, this burner could work, and be capable of running a few hours per fill
That's a cool little heater.
i ordered the felt from your store on the 3rd and i received it today the 15th, about two weeks shipping from the UK to Michigan in the US,
I'm on the way to making mine. I bought a 10" by 8" piece of felt off ebay for £7 it took two weeks to arrive. I tried it with some meths and eventually worked though a bit of a smell off the meths indoors. I'm going to get some bioethanol from B&Q but my local one doesn't have any at the moment. I'm also waiting to make the reflector, going to get a stainless steel small peddle bin and bastardise that. Hopefully the bioethanal doesn't smell like the meths did!
That is so amazing you have a many talents great job !!!!!
Built one and it's great but the smoke from the sock I used was terrible. The wick is so important. Tried a few different materials but not cotton yet.
I once carbonised two old socks in an attempt to make carbon fiber myself, didn't pan out as intented though and them socks still had some leftover smell for awhile. Of course I didn't bother to wash them before I put them into that jar. Also noticed that they were very brittle so thats why it didn't work as intented, anyways now I know. There is one other chance with that and it is old swimsuits/speedos that are mostly the fiber they use for commercial carbon fiber. Maybe I try that if I ever have a chance to get some of that material on my hands as "trash".
Don't recall if in any of your other videos you mentioned it, but it would be great if you were to do a timeframe/ do a time lapse of how long a volume of the methanol or whatever used lasted, like how much time would 100 ml would run for
This is my main concern as well.
So test it try different socks. Try different materials. Try hemp cloth.
I stumbled onto this video and liked it so much I just had to subscribe
thank you sir
That's awesome man ❤️👍
Great tutorial thus is a nice little project next on my long list :-)
Tin is sharp ! Got it , writing it down now
Haha nice one Rob, the proof is in the pudding.
"I have plenty of old socks with holes in..." WHAT...you don't darn all your socks? I'm completely stunned and flabergasted!
perfect placement for a handle, on top of the flame. Bet it will never get hot
Awesome 👏
