This is why we love you Dave, you don't forget where you came from and freely share good common man ideas.

He may sell some "pricey items", but he always gets back to great common man ideas. Your a good man Dave.

Hey sir, I've been following your guidance and knowledge since the beggining. You've come a long way in so many different areas. I love it. Keep teaching I'll keep listening.

Thanks for sharing that with us. That is a pretty cool little stove and with some minimal purchases looks like it will serve the user well. Thanks again for sharing your work.

True practical bushcrafting at it's finest , thank you David for the dedication to this craft.

Nice way to rig it up. I've often thought of using a plow point tarp setup facing a big root wad with my old sheep herder stove. But a small roll of insulation is genius. Thanks for another great episode, Dave!

Hey Dave, I've been working on this same concept for years. You pretty-well got it now, but roll a piece of 4" stove pipe around your rockwool then clamp it up; also, try using a length of 6" stovepipe as a thimble around that and you won't have any problems with the canvas getting hot. You won't even have to worry about cold air getting in through that assembly unless the wind is howling or blowing directly into that end of the shelter. That little stove looks pretty handy and will be enough to run you out of a small canvas shelter, especially if you control the draft with a damper. You could modify the firebox just a little bit so it will burn more like a rocket stove, but it basically is a rocket stove to begin with. Have fun with working on this concept, you'll eventually figure out ways to put a woodstove in just about any style or configuration of tent, including nylon tents and polyethylene carport canopies with side curtains. Have a good one man.

Mr Canterbury I want to start off by saying thank you for your service ,next thank you for the knowledge that you put out on the videos .man y'all at pathfinders school some bad mofos I must say .I watch quite a bit of videos from your other colleagues n also people you taught who have some good videos .all of what y'all teach I think is very important to know n I didn't realize how vulnerable we were this past year or two .you n a couple other fellas n gals made realize I don't know squat about urban or field survival even though I survived homelessness twice n a drug addiction Wich In turned causes the homeless ness.i really appreciate what you n your school n your instructor teach . Sorry for the mini story but when your homeless you have to learn how to survive but not on this level you guys blow my mind every week I been trying to catch up but wow.thank you sir God bless

After all the years of helping to educate, Dave u never fail to return to your roots of being practical and frugal. From ancient Viking navigation to modern Jeep pickups. I hope my boys appreciate and take time to learn from you. Either by me passing it on or directly through your videos

What a great find that little stove was 👏🏼👏🏼

I'm heading to Juneau, Alaska this spring. I'll be spending the vast majority of my life there in the wild. I've been wondering about the possibility if this very thing. Figured it would save me money and time. Serendipity... lol. Always enjoy your work. This information will help me a great deal. You've helped me, more than once, through some rather sticky wilderness situations. And you've, preemptively, done so again. 👍

I camped for years with a large tarp tied to the back of my IH scout with some poles holding up the other end. A smaller tarp for a side wall. Built my camp fire half under the tarp. Make sure it's about 7 foot high. I was comfortable with warm clothes to 25 degrees. All I had was cheap Kmart sleeping bag. Layed on a chase lounge also from Kmart. Good times

It's been 10 years, roughly, since I've watched this channel. I'll never forget when Dave stitched his hand up as a tutorial for a KZfaq video. Not to mention how to setup deadly traps...good times. lol

That stove is awesome really liked the set up of opening or closing from top with the cook rack. I really like how you showed how to make the tie points on the canvas tarp like make shift grommets. Amazing set up David looked like it worked very well.

This is the Dave Canterbury that we have been missing, a common man with solutions to common things not encountered by the well healed, a teacher and mentor for the dirty, people who do not arrive in a luxury auto, but with well-worn boots and calloused hands, their cologne is made of sweat and their most used tools are heart and grit, and they pay the price with those tools because buying your way out is not an option. Hear me, when that dollar is wiping paper and gold is just metal, it is this knowledge that will shine light on the eternal truth of tough times never lasting but tough people going the distance and making it to the morning to take a bite out of the backside of the next day. Thank you, Dave and welcome home.

Cool setup. Just an FYI,alot of people don't realize that fiberglass can still burn. I does work as an insulator to keep stuff from burning but needs to be checked. I have done a lot of fire restoration jobs that I have seen the houses were borderline catching on fire around the fireplace insert wrapped with fiberglass. Wood studs charred and black and same with the fiberglass. Always keep tabs on that stuff. I do love watching your channel and Shaun's channel and the rest of your instructors. Excellent stuff brother.

I'm a few days late finding you brother but I have some vids to catch up on . Thanks for showing us poor folks survival skills without having to pawn our false teeth , god bless !

Self Reliance Outfitters should make a stainless steel version of that stove. Great piece of gear. You find the best yard sale stuff. Great video!

They sell inexpensive stove jacks. Coupled with a hole in the tarp and you’re good to go. It’s what I did. And it works great.

Great video Dave. I love these type of backwoods engineering videos for the poor man. Thank you for all of the great tips and tricks that you show us.

Dave this is awesome!! You guys should make a stove like this in your pathfinder shop!! Obviously not a carbon copy but similar function!!!

Awesome setup!! That stove man what a great find 👍

This is a great video. Thank you for sharing it with the world. Ages ago, when our parents took us camping, I noticed that many people set their canvas tents and tarps quite tightly. Then, when it rained or even when a good dew fell, the canvas would get wet and draw up. This invariably resulted in torn or badly stretched and distorted canvas. Sometimes, by sheer luck, the stakes would pull out and the canvas would be saved. Dad always set up our tent with a decent amount of slack. We never had a problem. In fact, that tent lasted over 15 years. I was reminded of this when I saw how tight your tarp was pitched at about 13:00. Again, thanks for sharing this video. 😎

Appreciate your passion for history, your passion for survival and freedom, I adhere to the same.

Pipe inside of a pipe. Go to home depot and use a metal pipe that is bigger and use wire coat hangers for spacers. Just a suggestion

Very smart dude. I think the same way, both your ideas here are great! the stove jack and then canvas material is something found online priced way out of proportion. Your ideas are simple, cheap and work well ! Thank you for sharing !

I just ordered your new book Bushcraft 101 and can't wait to read it. Thanks for everything you've done over the years Dave. 👍🏻😎

Thanks for the how to video. I been wondering how I could make a simple painters tarp work for me. You showed me how. I appreciate you doing that.

awesome Dave , the older i get {55 now and it gets cold in western maryland } the more you love the wood heat, thanks man

Very nice info. I have a similar setup with a pup tent and ammo can stove. I didn't want to put in a stove jack so I used the insulation but wrapped mine with thin aluminum sheeting. It's always fun to setup different setups in the back yard and play around with it

Excellent show.!! That's a quick and easy setup for a small temporary base camp. Well done.!! Happy Holidays

Nice video brother. Thanks for posting, and sharing your knowledge. Always nice to see the basics in action and working well.

I’m in love with my hot tent setup. Definitely going out again within the next few weeks. This is very cool

Awesome idea, awesome set up, awesome video. Thanks, Dave! This video made me think about the great finds to be had at yard sales, army surplus stores, trader’s malls and the like. I’ve often seen booths decked out with surplus military, police or fire dept clothing, rucksacks, gear, tools, etc. I’m a former firefighter and have been able to keep an old set of gear for my hunting/camping equipment. I was wondering if you could do a video on military or paramilitary gear and equipment that everyday citizens could find in places like these. I know first hand that fire gear is a bit heavy but damn near all the outer layers you could need and it’s SUPER tough. With your military background, your survival knowledge and your practical creativity, I’m sure a LOT of ideas (maybe even a mini-series??) for videos would jump to your mind. Lots of respect for your service and love for your content from south central KY!

Not too shabby. 👍 Have you thought about just running the pipe up at an angle say 45 to 60° instead of 90 up? I would think a tripod would hold it up no problem, especially if you use some wire to wrap around it. 🤷🏻‍♂️

This was a great video. I just picked up a two ply green painters tarp for $4 at a thrift shop This gives me incentive Thanks dude

David, thank you for helping me to go through my depression est 2010.

I want one of those stoves.thats freaking awesome Dave.great information thanks for sharing!

Great demo Dave thanks, just recently picked up a little wood burning stove. Great ideas I will be implementing.

some classic dave Canterbury ingenuity!! you love to see him back at it thanks dave

You can use welders cloth either in the area around the stovepipe, or , if you can find enough welders cloth, you can make the entire tent out of it. It looks alot like painters cloth anyway. Then, the entire thing would be fireproof. I have been struggling with the same idea for some time now. Not sure how expensive, or how large of a sheet the welders cloth comes in though. If its to expensive, just get enough to cut out a large enough square, and then cut the pipe hole out of the center of the square, throw some velcro around the edges of the square and be done with it. Last time I seen the welders cloth, it was even white, similar to a wall tent. Please forgive me if I spelled welder wrong. You get the point though. Great video, thanks.

Dave, obrigado por mais esse vídeo. Você é o melhor! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Fã aqui do Brasil.

That's awesome Dave, great idea. Thanks for sharing. Great find on that stove! Merry Christmas to you and yours. Hopefully a better New Year too. 👍

I'm a little envious you found that little stove before I did...lol. Nice find! Thanks for making the video.

After watching this it makes me want to build one in my back yard

Now THAT is a sweet setup. Thank you for sharing!

That's a good set up. I see a lot of people on the internet over-thinking it. It does take some knowledge to run and stay safe.

Thanks Dave. Good stuff. Hope y'all have a merry Christmas.

Dave, I'll bet when you were a kid you use to hang blankets and sheets over the dining room or kitchen table to make a fort! LOL! 🤣 And Now you have perfected it! What a great idea! Awesome yard sale find! Thanks for sharing! 😊👍

Some local jurisdictions would not legally call the "shanty cap" a "spark arrestor"; however, some 1/8" or 1/4" hardware cloth ringing the outlet in the cap should satisfy most local authorities. I'm not a lawyer. I just don't like giving others ways to bust my dreamscape! Keep up the good work, Dave, you are a treasure.

Looks good Dave. Thanks for showing us.

You sir are the man. Great video as always.

Cool concept! I want the little stove💥💥💥 ,going to have to make something like that! Always get some good ideas and information watching ! Thanks!

Always appreciate the video and you sharing this information with us! Much love

Great video Dave. Love the mentality.

This is something that has been rattling around in my mind I really want to go in my back woods of my house and I think I'm going to try to use this because it's relatively cheap I live in Wisconsin and I would like to test this against five or ten below degrees now that we have actual winter going on up here

Cracking ideas , excellent alternative there . Happy Christmas 👍

Dave, Well Done with this setup, It’s simple and it works…

Great Job Dave!!.Learned a lot.

Great little stove! Cool video👍

Excellent video Dave!! Thanks 😎👍

Hey Dave, Glad to see you again. I enjoyed this video. Thanks.

Hi Dave !! I have Pomoly mini T1 backpacking stove/tent heater. Its foldable titanium stove. For 5-6 person tent , that thing is a beast !! Its $450 though, but it's worth every penny !! Its light less than 5lb, very durable, and easy rides in my back pack !!

Great video Dave!! Solid information as always!

Thanks for sharing your idea Dave. Blessings

Thats a great looking set up there the stove is great. Just the right size stove. 👍

Love this common man stuff you do. Thanks Dave.

that's a great setup. one the items that I found that will strengthen painters tarp is a coat or two of clear sealant. Flex seal is helpful to keep small flying debri from piercing the tent and also ads a layer of waterproofing/insulation. Rustoleum also makes a sealant but I don't know if it would help with that or if it would coat the cloth enough to add any value such as warmth and insulation.

Thanks Dave , nice stove and tent

Thanks for the video. I like this idea and might give it a try with my Winnerwell stove sometime.

The Corporal sent me to your channel. Very nice content. I’ll definitely be binge watching your videos.

Great video, showing how good ol stuff works for life :)

I do a similar configuration with my 10x10 tarp over my hammock, folding the "doors" in at both ends to make a sort of floating tent. Hung low to the ground and battoned down all the way, it does a pretty good job cutting down convection under the hammock.

Thanks for the ceramic blanket insulation idea. Will be using it myself

Very nice. I've kicked around building a small stove out of an old metal ammo can. Would be great for this purpose.

Cant get enough of all this knowledge.. expert stuff level made simple. 👌 🔥

Thanks for a great idea! I can see that working in my 7'x7' sail cloth wedge tent as well. It's either that or see about sewing in a stove jack, which is also possible.

That's awesome Dave thanks for sharing

That is flat out awesome love to have one of them stoves thanks buddy

stove was a good find, and its good to try different ideas. thanks for sharing ATB Del

Superb demonstration. Thank you 👍🇺🇸...

Great find with that stove. * I do not know my knots obviously very important wow you know your stuff David!

THAT is an awesome little stove! 👍

I been thinking the same thing for a minute...and here you are doing it.

Very cool (warm) setup!!

Thank you, I learnt a few new things and I've bought a painter canvas yrs ago for such purposes. Didn't think about the stove in that tent though.🤔👍 I was thinking on covering the canvas in paraffin wax.

Dual survivor junky here...love you Dave!!!

Awesome video Dave, big fan of yours!

Nice Dave, I would recommend some hardware cloth or screen inserted into the spark arrestor. Shure like this common man approach. as well as you showing the higher budget items. Like having options. Good deal!

Awesome find on that wood burning stove great video as usual 👍🏼

That is an awesome little stove you found..

I have been thinking about this exact thing. Thanks Dave

Nice I love it. I have one of those stoves. I got it at an antique shop. Looks home made but who knows.

Yes sir keep them coming! Excellent video

Cool beans brother! Great just to get out and have fun! 👍🏽👍🏽👌🏽😎

Nice find. Good to see new videos like this

Wow a yard sale? That is a baddass little stove! What a great video! I need to start looking for a tent stove. I think I could make a tent like that.

That's a great little stove, I have the same one and also a yard sale find. Nothing like USA made vintage for a couple bucks.

Love the new tricks ! Thanks

brilliant idea. I was wondering how I could get a stove easily into a lava. Never thought of using that insulation like that!
