DIY Powerful K Style Rocket Stove - Forme Industrious
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
In this video I make a K style Rocket Stove.
On our "Off Grid" property that we hope to move to soon, we have a lot of timber and twigs that are great for camp fires and cooking etc. I figured I should make a rocket stove and save money on natural gas.
Why a Rocket stove?
Rocket Stoves are quite efficient in burning small branches and twigs to produce a very hot directional fire directly beneath your frying pan/ pot etc. They use very little wood (fuel) to cook a meal and produce very little smoke once it is heated. They are a great portable option for camping.
This stove is quite large and puts out a lot of heat. Trick is to start a small fire in the combustion chamber, which heats the whole stove up and creates that rocket effect, sucks air in and it speeds up the combustion shooting flames out the top. Adding sticks as it heats up. (I love it :)
To make this Rocket Stove check the video for the dimensions I used. The main body is made from 100 x 100 x 4mm Tube. Legs from 65 x 35 x 4mm box. All Mild steel painted with heat paint.
Thanks for watching

I work with Tools in Maryland, USA. I watched 5 men make these stoves, and 3 of them did more dangerous/stupid things than i did as an apprentice. It was good to see a Real Craftsmen "Git-R-Done"! - Nice build!

This was a good alternative to the open fire as it was a bit too windy that evening. Spuds were delicious.

I love that I’ve been watching your channel long enough to see your welding improve so much!!! It’s really neat to see and I love your work!!
I always love your welding videos! Its fun to watch your process. I usually end up picking up some fabrication tips from them too.
I enjoy watching your metal work, so clean and precise, and your welding is mint...
The cool things people come up with! Such a cool simple design. Seen this around but, never watched a build vid before. Nicely done! Good on ya.
Cool and practical new toy, and ideal for the new place. Great stuff Scotty.

When I worked as a welder, the machinists used to tell us off for using the bandsaw for hollow tubing because it always mangled up the teeth on the blade. I noticed it drifting on that angled cut, and it brought back memories.

There are those in every trade that like to assert their incredible knowledge on others ;) It's all about teeth per inch (TPI) and surface contact, and speed. You get that right and it's perfectly acceptable to use a band saw. The saw you used may have been set up for cutting heavy material. Yes my saw may drift. Sometimes it needs resetting and sometimes I'm too lazy.

Great job Scott. I’ve been making these for a few years now. I make an optional pellet gravity feeder insert version. Took quite a few goes to get the feed just right. I’m toying with the idea of fitting a length of 3” exhaust tube about 2.5m long to a 180’, then back down to about 1.8m, with another 90’ elbow, then it goes out through a panel that fits into a window (only needs to be clipped into the frame), and then a final exhaust flue. It would be as an emergency backup, should we lose power for an extended period. We lost power for 5 days after a storm in May 2019, which was tough, but at least it wasn’t the depths of winter. Cheers from southern Tassie.

It's a new knowledge.
I remember in the early days of my engineering apprenticeship when I was welding a structure, the foreman who was about 60 years old, wandered over and said, "Hows it looking, is it square?" I looked at him and said, "Looks pretty close to me." He went off his head, saying pretty close, this is precision fucken engineering and you says its pretty close, he then asked for my square, eyed it up and said, yea thats pretty close alright and walked away. It was OK for the foreman to say it was pretty close, not the boy.

I made a k style rocket stove here recently. I noticed my feed tube & air tube are about 5 inch’s longer than yours. Does it make a difference with my air tube being longer? Does it hurt the airflow? Should I cut them off or just drill some holes closer to the front?🤷🏼♂️ Thanks in advance, any info is greatly appreciated! Thank you!
@ScottTurnerformeindustrious
9 ай бұрын
I really haven't tested tube lengths sorry. Just thinking it through; if the air intake is longer there is potential to get more airflow obstruction. How well is your stove going, that's the best indication? They take a bit to heat up and get going initially, but once going it should give good heat and draw in that air. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Very nice build, excellent, but the walls are not insulated, I thought all rocket stoves had insulated walls to increase the draw. In fact I thought this was the major difference between a hobo stove (not insulated) and a rocket stove. Is this incorrect?
