I have looked at them time and again, and each time decided against buying because you can't cook in them.
And yet it's such a great idea. Can I make my own? Hmm.

You'll never make a gourmet meal, but you sure can warm a can of beans, some soup or make some porridge. If you have a small frying pan, you can even cook eggs. We had a lot of fun with it when we were travelling, we've even used dry cow dung as fuel!

Any chance you could record how long it takes from when you first start the fire? To the point when 6 cups of water is boiled? I see you said 8 minutes. Is this the average?
Our current wood stove is an old fisher stove and from start up to having our morning tea takes about 40 minutes. That means 40 minutes to get 1 liter of water boiled.
I have watched a video where the person said it took 3:15 minutes to boil 8 cups. However they said this after the fire was started.
Also, How is the smoke? Do you think it would be reasonable to set up a little brick enclosed area just outside the house. Just to boil tea in the morning?
These are about 150 dollars in canada for the stainless steel base camp model.
Much appreciated.

The pot it's sitting in is a Kuhn Rikon double walled insulated pot that I can even hold in my lap while cooking. Nice that I can safely move it around with the fire going if necessary. A bonus... The Kelly Kettle base also fits this insulated pot. 😊
