Tipi stove build

[wvtradbow]

I just put this together for my Golite Shanri-la 5 after an early season Co.hunt an it only weighs about 2 1/2 lbs.I bought the .006 stainless steel shim stock the 10-32 3' rod an the 3/64 ss wire from McMaster- Carr..I started with 2 8-9" pie pans from Ollies cut the bootoms out   I was able to weld some 22gauge metal on the front but steel rivets will do the same  .I just really needed a lip to wrap the SS body around

     looks good so far why stop

Sorry the only thing slower than my typing is my computer...The stove is held together by 2 SS 10-32 rods in the top an 2 in the bottom an after cutting a hole for the stack an air holes in the front it was time for a test fire

Nice work! I would've said "How cool is this? Way!... in this case, it just didn't seem to fit...lol

I will say your stove is pretty cool though.

Thanks for sharing with us.

God bless,Mudd

The stack is .004 12"x 100" SS shim stockfrom McMASTER-CARR my tent is being modified at a friends house for a 3"stove jack an storm flaps as soon as I get it back I'll post pics of the set up....But it comes apart very easily an is light

Love this one! Quick questions: What was the measurement on the shim stock for the body, 12x50? Also, when I check the website it looks like the stack was nearly $90 or am I looking at the wrong thing? Hate to be a pain, but I've been thinking of a similar project as long as I could make one significantly more cost-effective compared to the Kifaru, TiGoat, etc.

Once again, I really like what you've done and hope to do something similar.

Well Mudd, I'd say that was "Hot Stuff". Hot Hap

Looks great, and I know it's not easy but if you could somehow get a baffle in it the wood would last a lot longer and less heat would go up the chimney too.

It's not the same at all but when I made the barrel stove for my yurt I used it vertically so the flat part is on top.  I also put two baffles in and it really helps to get the heat to "flow" across the top of the heater rather than going straingt up the chimney.  It works great for cooking and especially in a smaller stove like you've made it would be fine for boiling water etc.

You could also make some kind of cradle on yours to hold a pot of water.

Nice job all the same!

It does have a baffle an spark screen,I'm using a Kifaru setup for that for now but there's others that I may like better   The 3" stove pipe fits over it..

[wvtradbow]

The part numbers for the stuff I used from McMASTER CARR is stove body 9506k15 SS shim stock 12" x 50" .006 an for the stove pipe is 9784k45 type 301/302/304 12"x100" the SS rods are 98848a011 10-32 but in hind site Lowes has 10-24 which is a more common thread for when you buy the wing nuts, you'll need some small ss cable to hold the stove pipe when you roll it an I also used it to keep the stoves shape an that was 50' 3461T175 an the compression sleeves 3883T21 an I don't think everything combined was $90.

MY bad stove part# is 9506K16...The only other part i forgot is the legs I welded like close hanger wire for that but there again I'm sure there's other ways,I've even seen stoves sittin on rocks but I don't think I'd like that since it could roll....

[macksdad]

that looks good , good work

That is one cool idea and much lighter then the one i bought.

Wish i had it in my deer/turkey house.
