The Ultimate Portable Camping and Survival Stoves - NEW UNIVERSAL SIEGE STOVES! I sometimes run across something so clever - and useful, I have to share the discovery. From the linked site - It is a tool, a stove stand (with can you supply) and there are accessories - this outfit has done their homework, I'm impressed. The videos are well made, easily understood and while they do make a pitch, it is not hard-core.... one in use - not from the Vendor review and making a stove, not from the vendor If nothing else, go to the site and view the two videos. Likely, most Monkeys can DIY - but it is neat to see how these stoves (and gasifiedrstoves) can be made with simple junk and a few min of your time.
The gassifier stove is a nice higher tech variation on the hobo stove. Although woodpellets may be a nice to have, but 'on the road' it will be a matter of what can be found on the way: There not being enough LBE weight and space capacity to carry much stove fuel versus other higher priority stuff. Edit: The can itself is likely to be a little bulky for toting around on a bug-out...but undoubtedly would be very convenient in semi permanent / permanent camp sites fashioned from found objects in the vicinity. On the road, a Dakota fire hole is probably your best option...it doesn't need space or weight in ya pack more than perhaps a garden trowel, if that.
We always made them from old Folgers Coffee cans or #10 cans, while we didn't have fancy bases and top holders, they worked very well, and they actually put out enough heat to heat up a medium size canvas tent!
When I was in Scouts in the 60’s before each camping trip we made our camp stoves out of coffee cans, strips of cardboard and canning wax. They worked well and burned a long time.
You can build this (or a rocket stove) with an unused paint can. You can get those at most paint stores and they are inexpensive. It is easy to build one for every vehicle you have, plus your survival locations, using the interior to store needed supplies and the lid to keep them secure. (...and for the wags out there, get a STEEL can, not plastic!)
