I think it is possible to use fuel container from any material as far as it is heat resistant. Glass jar for me was easiest possible way to make burner. However I have also made copper burner. It works wonderful. You can check video in my account or look for video “Homemade copper alcohol burner”.

Do you need to use the alcohol container made of glass, as this is the only container I have seen. Not sure if this is because glass is the only type of container there is with a metal screw on top or if there is another reason.
Cheers

@utubeworms You are right this stove i didn’t make for back packing, although it isn’t bigger than some commercially made. I used it when traveled by car and used single coil burner.

Not really suitable for back packing though cool design none the less.

Sorry if I misunderstood. I don’t really mind you to be superior. The only thing is that every body has different interest. What is interesting for me, probably not for others and in reverse.
I also like to watch different videos, most of them are very interesting, full of good ideas.

Oops. Totally re-read that comment and see how that sounds like I meant to be superior to you. My apologies. That was not my intent. I just like making things more and more simple. Like you I started making stoves and just kept improving them. I actually have stoves in my car as well. For me, ease of use means that I actually use it. Also, I mean that it is fun to take others ideas and go from there rather than reinventing the wheel each time. Keep at it!

I am happy if you like you burner. I can’t say that I like it very much, however I have something similar my selves, just as backup burner. And I don’t think that your stove is better. Simpler yes, but not better for me. Every body makes something for his own needs. I didn’t make my stove for hiking and therefore I don’t really care very much about size. But you are right, It is fun to make stuff better. After this stove I have made three other stoves.

Please check out the Theion Designs video response. Light and easy, this stove simmers for an hour with 2 oz. of the juice. The stand weighs less than an ounce. It’s fun to make stuff, but it’s more fun to make stuff better.

He didn’t make it for backpacking. He takes them travelling with him in his car he said. Does GE and HotPoint make backpacking stoves? Look how big those are. ; ) but at least they have 4 burners and an oven, lol.

Jeez, I might as well carry a MSR Whisperlight with all that crap to haul around!

If you know the joy of making then you should understand why people are making something.
And those Coleman stoves are very expensive, quite big and still very heavy. You can say that my stove is also big (but not heavy). Yes but I have made already much smaller one. With 2 oz of alcohol it burns 30min. And I don’t need to carry big Coleman stove to warm up meal and alcohol gives more than enough BTUs to make meal. Actually I can also use Coleman fuel after small adjustments.

fill it full of water, plug one end and set it up right with it full of water and freeze it

You can try to heat tube. After heating it becomes quite soft. Another way is to fill it with water and freeze and then right away bend. But in my opinion sand is best and it is everywhere.

Ok so il make the coke can jet stove ;D But i still have no idea on how to bend the tube without sand

It is not so explosive as it looks. Glass it quite durable to heat and looks like it doesn’t reach so high temperature like metal. And it is possible to adjust flame by changing wick and jet size. Only problem is if you drop it – it can easily brake. But I don’t make glass ones any more, it was like step to metal ones.

Burner can be shut down also by closing jet hole with peace of metal or screwdriver.
