    When you say "camp stove" my mind goes back to pan cakes which reminds me of bracket funguses that resemble stacks of pancakes.A bracket fungus is a favored stove material especialy when they are thick. nothing like a pancake bracket soaked in bacon grease! to see a bracket stove, click onto the link in my signature.

    What size Camping GAZ are you looking for? That's another name for Coleman.

    I have a CV 270 GAZ stove. It's the cartridges that are hard to find. Shipping is high on butane/propane from the net if the shipping company knows thats what's being shipped. Haz mat something or the other. REI lists them in their catalog but I drove 90 miles down there and they didn't have any on hand. The stoves are perfect as far as function. They were also known by BLUET.
    Well why not?

    Nice vid. BTW why do you need to use insulation inside? Does it absorb the fuel? Thanks.

    It looks a lot like a jet boil. I'm sure that had some design influence.

    I have a Jet Boil that I have been verry happy with.I like how the stove and fuel can be stored in the cup.

    As a side note on the Jet Boil. There is a recall on one of its newer models.The threads for the burner and fuel can do not match up correctly.

    Default insulation in stove

    Quote Originally Posted by rebel View Post

    Yes it absorbs the fuel, stabilizes it, and acts to evenly distribute it, towards the top. As i mentioned in a previous post i prefer flat bottomed stoves, and one would think that if you put insulation in the stove, even 'round' bottom, the insulation would absorb it anyway? True, and false, the fuel still 'pools' in the bottom, and obviously not as efficient as flat.

    Thanks for answering my question about the insulation. I'm going to have to try one of your stove designs.

    I'll continue to add stoves to the master list as there brought to my attention. It's been awhile sense I've looked for any, but please keep referring them to me. A lot of people have used this list.
    Thanks - PGV

    Default Safe Indoors?

    Are any of these stoves safe to use indoors with little or no ventilation?

    I know ventilation is crucial but was hoping that in a pinch I could use something without the danger of asphyxiation.

    BENESSE - any stove that has an open flame consumes oxygen and produces carbon Dioxide. Even the gas stove (if you are not on electric) does. It does not take a wide open door or window to provide the ventilation you need for these stove, provided you are not burning wood (think hobo stove) or some other fuel that produces a lot of noxious fumes. A window that is slightly ajar should be enough.

    Benesse - Stoves that use compressed gases like propane, butane, or a propane/butane mix are cleaner burning, easier, and safer to use indoors. As crash stated they require only to be used by a window that is opened slightly.

    For household use, where your cooking for more than one person, a two-burner propane camp stove works the best. It's larger than a compact stove but more practical for large pots.

    Well, here is another stove. It may not be practical for backpacking but as an efficient wood burner when you need to conserve your fuel this looks good. Its manufactured by Stove Tec. a company that designed it for third world countries were both the economic situation of its people and the scarcity of wood as a fuel source necessitate efficiency.
