Ikea Hobo Stove

Materials: Ordning cutlery stand

Description:
I had an extra Ordning cutlery stand and decided to give it a different use.

As an outdoor enthusiast I decided to convert the stand into a wood-burning (hobo) stove for camping.

Cut a 'window' with a Dremel tool to create a 'window' to feed the stove with wood. And that's it, you have an Ikea Hobo Stove.

You can use the holes to insert two tent sticks to hold a pot. The holes also allow the right ventilation needed for the burn.

  2. We used to make those stoves out of cans, when we were kids, and balance a potato on top to cook. Miracle we didn't ever start a forest fire...

    @rollinger - I used a Dremel #420 cut-off wheel and a Dremel #407 sanding band.
