Awesome video ! As if there was ever a bad video. I have a bunch of empty coffee cans, ya the big ones. Wonder if I can improve on this ? Thanks for the inspiration.

Great idea for making a fire when ice fishing! Simple and easy always is always the best....

Nice job with the video!

Boy we sure make cheap can now!  When I was a young boy, we used metal coffee cans, they are stronger snd could fry an egg on the top!  Great video, brings back memories!

Love this kind of video, Dave. I really appreciate how your two YT channels have different points of emphasis. ETA: tell us about that watch you're rocking.

I started making a hobo stove after watching a different video, gave up and searched to find 100 times better Thank You

Some of my best memories are the Boy scout days where we learned survival skills. I had a blast .

A can stove is one of the best improvise to survive to learn what to make... It can really save your life

I like the DIY and recycling projects.

The truest statement was "if I'm drinking instant coffee, it already IS a SHTF!!!" Loved the video man, thanks a million. God bless

Glad to see you demo this! It brings back great memories of the old coffee can stoves my parents taught the Scouts to make.

I can honestly say that I hit the like button before I even see your videos. Your videos have a lot of great material and really helped expand my way of thinking and how to imply them as well. Great stuff sir..

Ok Mr. Sootch, I have made mini stoves and ovens out of a lot of things. First time I have seen the old tin can.
However I should not be shocked as you can make them out of paint containers of various sizes to make Hobo stoves.
But for a mini..Great job sir.

Maybe you can connect a few together. Like 3 with wire, or 3 with a paperclip top and bottom to each pair?
Maybe bend a wire clothes hanger around the middle of them.

3 together will give you a more stable base of cans. And you can just light each one as you need to. 1, 2 or all 3 at the same time. Faster cooking.

I like your video.

Use your can opener to firmly score the side of the can. Saves time and frustration.

Thanks for your video. I seen videos where they use two bigger cans beside the burner as a stand and some use side bricks as a stand or some put a can inside a can as a stand and a wind shield. Just some ideas for your views. You said you didn't like instant coffee. You can get a camping percolator. . Taste much better. Thanks for the site you advised us on.

great video man! Thanks. I make dehydrated meals that I cook on a home made alcohol stove. If I ever don't have that stove... this is a great alternative. All I need is to be able to boil water, so this is all I need (for my dehydrated meals). Thank you, your videos make my morning/day/night. :)
