Have you tried the turbo V-8. It is a great little stove.

Do you get a lot of flare-ups, explosions, and unpredictability with the PMS stove?

Make Skid's PMS stove next. I have one of his and it works super good.

I do mine, but don't tell her I said that.

Not too much detail goes into one. Just a bit of skill with a Dremel tool. Here's the directions:

I use Michelob Ultra 10 oz. cans for the insert. They fit perfect with no modification necessary.

ok i have access to dremel now. i'm currently working on a wood stove, but we're in a burn ban in PA so i can't test it (legally) :(
pictures are in my gallery, since i'm too retarded to figure out how to do thumbnails here (which is odd, b/c i'm usually pretty computer savvy)

maybe i'll give skids' PMS stove a try, although i usually hike to get away from that sort of thing....

k the wood stove worked! i'm drinking some peppermint tea right now after my 1st time usage of it. i'm sure i'll be able to work out the kinks as i use it more, but man, how awesome will it be to take some weekenders and not carry any fuel??? woohooo!
