At the PDC I attended two years ago we did build a simple rocket stove type. A portable thing, not very durable, but it was finished fast from an old huge tin, some pieces of pipe and perlite and it was quite efficient actually. Boiled quickly with little wood needed.

If you have any particular link in mind, as to where one can find a plan on the Web which works, I'd be happy to hear about it. Talking of links, I looked at your blog. So many interesting links and photographs. Impressive! For baking I was thinking of a cob oven. Any ideas on that?(Continue reading)
