DIY Project: Rocket Stove

Welcome to this exciting video where Joe will take you on a journey through the step-by-step process of building a rocket stove, from inception to completion. Using a three-sixteenth-inch steel cut with a CNC machine that he personally constructed, he brought to life the Sunburst design by Jim Biebler. Grab your tools and materials, and let's get this DIY party started!

3. Building Process

3.1. Start off by cutting out all the parts. (0:21)

3.2. Clean up parts using a combination of tools. (1:45)

3.3. Prepare the parts for the rocket stove's structure. (1:57 )

3.4. Line up and tack-weld the inside vent. (02:48)

3.5. Tack outside pieces, leaving for final welding. (03:54)

3.6. Line up and tack-weld the separated pieces. (04:26)

3.7. Add the bottom base and tack welding in place. (04:55)

3.8. Use a wire wheel to clean up some welds. (05:15)

3.9. Cut the ashtray from 8-inch steel using CNC and file. (05:53)

3.10. Weld the crisscross pattern in place. (06:56)

3.11. Multiple coats of high-heat-resistant paint for finishing. (07:12)

3.12. Declaring the completion of the rocket stove. (07:33)
