Who else is here November 2021? Glad I came across this! LOL Helpful and comedy all at the same time. 👍

Simple, straight forward, tongue in cheek video, not at all long winded like other similar ones, great backing music too👍🏻

I made an aluminum stove that was three sided and held a sterno stove in eighth grade. I loved camping and would hike up in the hills when I visited my grandparents in West Virgina. And camp out over night sometimes too. Anyways the elder blossom flood came on one spring and washed the outhouse down the creek breaking the gas line. And we used my little stove to cook on. My grandpa was so proud. He doubted it at first. But once it got that iron skillet hot and the ham was sizzling I thought he’d bust.

This is a wonderful find for me, because my apartment is all electric. At the rate things are going today you never know when you'll have to turn to an alternative way of feeding yourself. This is clever and simple. Thank you so much for this share

I did something like this about 30 odd years ago. It was a windy, rainy Halloween. I used an Easy Bake cake pan, a bolt, piece of a shoelace and some veg oil or something. Made a candle that lasted the whole night.

"Then, strangely, we look at the whole thing as if we've never seen it berore[...]" LOL, can't have a DIY without that shot!

No hubbub cutting and drilling and whatever goes along with others. Love it.

old woman saying to tear up and use vintage stuff your grandma left you when you died holy shit lol I laughed so hard never change, you are a gem

Absolutely delightful!!! You are a lovely hoot! Love your sense of humor plus learning how to fix coffee or tea when you hadn't ought to be able too!! Thanks so much for posting!❤❤❤🐺

Absolutely love your terminology for thing's. You're so comical! 😂. Your dead grannies vintage tea towel that she left you 😂 lmao. Great video. Thanks for sharing! 👌☺

Absolutely the most down to earth keeping it real video on this that i have seen...thanks bumches

Oh darn it! I see you only made one video and 7 years ago. This one was so fun and emergency practical as well.

Well done. First lady I've seen demonstrating Trangia AND with humour too!

I always forgot the "fiddle around for a few seconds" step. No wonder it never worked for me. Thanks for the chuckle. 😂😂👍 This was very entertaining.

This was great. Thanks for sharing your idea and your sense of humor!

Im Australian. In the early 70s I can remember metho was purple as a kid. Now its clear. I drop some gention voilet in mine so I dont get it mixed up with my parrifin (shellite) for my tilly lantern and stove. I keep the meths for my trangia, dont want to put shellute in that it will explode. If you want to fry that, stand a good 50 meters back

really an awsome idea you can't beat it man better than a penny stove I think olive oil would work well as a fuel and you could get regular wicks when they go on clearance at the end of the summer

I just found this video and laughed so hard. I bet my dear departed granny would have laughed too. Brilliant.

can you use a more common household item for the "fuel".. where do you get that stuff anyway? Never heard of it.

In total agreement with Shelia W. This is clever and simple. Thank you so much and God bless you.

Ooh grandma what big hands you have. Brilliant. Loved it 👍

This is the best.. and requires no holes to be punctured.. Thanks for sharing

I've never seen your videos before... But you're delightful! I love your commentary. I laughed out loud by myself for the part about lidless pot videos. Cheers to you ☺️

Best alcohol stove video out there…due both to simplicity and wit!

Very entertaining. I especially liked the "hand cut, vintage cotton strip from a towel your grandmother left you" lol

This is what every diy needs to be like... Using actual random stuff for making stuff... Best diy everr

This is cool! And you are hilarius♡ Thank you SO MUCH for posting ❤

Great video. I notice the tin in the background is from Collin street bakery. I used to live in Corsicana and remember that place fondly. I can't remember his name but there was a guy that ran the place and embezzled a lot of money from there. Interesting read.

Copper pipe with hole's drilled down one side one larger hole to fill the pipe with alcohol or liquid heat. Roll up high heat carbon felt or cut circle's and then stack it inside copper pipe. Sweat end cap's onto pipe. Bend wire to make a stand to place pipe into to keep the burner up right. Make two to three copper pipe's with the wire stand. Now ypu have a alternative burner for your wood stove barbecue or fire place. Stay warm and cheerful love! 😊

First time seeing your video.. love it. Thank you.

Loved this video. Couldn't believe she only has one. She would be wonderful for audiobooks.

I enjoyed this video very much and informative. And A soft spoken woman. My father and he’s large family was a depression baby and I had learned a lot from and how to get by with out much. And thank you for this video!!!

Never thought to do it this way round. Normally I take an old camping stove, empty it out and fill it with tuna.

I'm sad to see only one upload from 5 years ago from you. Please make more.

Dziękuję za ten prosty acz genialny pomysł,brawo 👏🏻 Pozdrawiam serdecznie .

Saw the Collins street bakery tin behind you. Dad was from Corsicana... brought back a lot of memories. Thanks

Loved every second of it. Thanks.

Noooo, not granny’s tea towel! Well it was worth it! Thanks for sharing!

thank you for your time and work..very helpful

I love your sense of humor! Thanks for the video.

Love this. So simple. Thank You so much

Omg this got to be the best alcohol stove video ever ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I like your style!!! Great video!!

Cracking video , made me chuckle

Steel wool and 9 bolt battery will make a spark to light too no need matches in a pinch tampons make good wick too. Can make canola and soy oil lamps candles too or old olive oil

Great video. Glad I found you.

Buying a cheap mophead from a $ store makes MANY Wicks. 👀 Love your video & wonderful sense of humor. 💥😂🤣😂

Thankyou! I got relaxed and I laugh and I learn. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

Love it ❤️ amazing idea thank you for sharing 💕. Also loved the way you did your video very nice.

Interesting and entertaining love her sense of humour...

Granny's chin tweezers! Ha ha ha ha

Such an entertaining video! You have intelligence and wit. Viola!!!

grasias por su enseñanza 👍👏👏👏👏👏🤗🤗🤗

Speaking as someone who is never more than 6' from her own chin tweezers... informative and entertaining, jolly good. 😊 Was that a Maine accent I detected? It was reminiscent of every Stephen King movie set in Bangor. 🎥 😎

Great Can stove, thanks ur sharing...

November 2022. And it still delivers. 👍

I make alcohol burners with a 25mm diameter wick, they put out real cooking heat Look for a Le Grillion stove and copy it with a 1L paint can, use fiberglass rope for a wick The rope for sealing wood stove doors as it lasts forever, a .5L will burn for 4 hours

Well done. Thank you.

"Grandmother's chin tweezers". LOL

you are so funny, love the video

Great idea. The narration is killing me!

Such a great video. TFS❤️

Thank you kindly for this video.

This is the most interesting DYI video I have ever seen and heard. Subed.

Aah, that's where I keep going wrong...a LIGHTED match is what I need! Great little idea!
