Make A Camping Stove From Beer Cans And A Penny
The Penny Alcohol Backpacking Stove is a home-made camping stove made from beer cans and a penny. This looks like great fun so I think I'm going to try it.

I know we sell Trangia and Highlander Alcohol Stoves in the shop and I could use one of them any time but making your own brings out the base instinct. Man make fire, man kill meat.

This looks so good that I'm going to go out and buy some beer now, purely for construction purposes of course. If it works I'll post photos, if it doesn't I'll be typing with burned fingers.

Thanks to Goblog.

I made one of these yesterday, the heat these things generate is incredible. Approx 30mls of meths and it ran for about 12 mins.
