    Yes, it's the 24 oz. can. A search would probably turn up lots of info but here are a couple:

    But it's really not that complicated. Get a beer can, cut the top off, make a lid for it, and figure out how to pick that sucker up when it's scalding hot.

    I should add that WB's own Hog on Ice(HOI) was the bright fella to come up with the idea in the first place.

    The rest of us are kinda like the folks jogging behind Forrest Gump.

    You can put a stainless steel wire bail on it. Skids, how easy you forget.

    Seeing as we can't keep up with a hog, I guess that makes the rest of us pretty slow.

    I'm good with that.

    On the subject of beer can stoves, Michelob light has come out with a new can. They are longer than normal cans and almost a half an inch smaller in diameter. I made a stove out of a couple of cans yesterday and it works great.

    Nice catch nutlub. I completely missed 'stove' in the original post.
