In reply to Khris. Suggested inner tubes of Natural Gas exhaust pipe pieces as they are about 3 inches wide. 2 1 ft pieces and 1 elbow might just work; the acids from resinous woods will eat that or any mild steel up in a few years as any old country boy knows.

Needed more pictures and maybe a video of the process. That metal Must receive exhaust pipe paint or some such that takes over1200 degrees. If not; it will soon go soft in the metal and rust really fast. Been there, lol.

I’ve designed and built my own rocket stove where I boil water in it and I can cook on top and it’s collapsible I think it’s great. I’ve also design a whole camping kitchen with hanging pots Dutch oven‘s hanging cooking grate it’s over 4 foot long and I am probably going to market it.

In reply to Joe. Ideally the vent pipe is 3x the feed. I think that making this from smaller cans like the Campbells Chunky Soup 18.8 oz can would solve your problem. Please note that these will always smoke when first lighted and probably should not be used indoors without good ventilation (under powered vent hood or windows cracked TOP AND BOTTOM)
