DIY Pop Can Alcohol Stove

This is now the tricky part, sticking both cans together is the most painstaking task you will encounter in making the stove. I advice you to bend the shorter can’s edges so it would be easier to insert the short can to the long can.

Insert the short can into the long can. Use your Dremel tool for grinding the sharp edges left by the can.

Try to apply super glue into the small gaps left . Be sure to seal it or else flames might exit an unsuspected areas. Keeping the stove airtight as possible is a “must”. Let the glue sip in the gaps. Notice that the super glued area should be the bottom part, Shorter can facing downwards and the longer can should face upwards. Flip the can after gluing it. Don’t forget to let it dry for about an hour.

Drill you holes using a Dremel tool or just simply use a sharp object to puncture the can. Pleas do not make you holes too big nor too small. Don’t forget to use a tape measure to guide your holes. Do not make your’e holes too big nor to small. Use a drill bit that is used for PCB making.

Sand every last ink of the printed label, ink from the label usually burns then turns into a black substance. You wouldn’t want to mess you stove’s appearance.

Your’e done! Have fun modifying it :))))

If you want a small stove for camping or cooking or even as an emergency stove when you’re without power or gas, this could be the solution. You might want to think twice about throwing that soda can you just finished.

Thanks to ASCAS for this great project.
