    Found this home-made stove archive. The hosting company seems to be having problems as half the time you get an italian 'page not found'. But there are some good project including a simplified 'pepsi can' stove that I tried out, it only took a couple of minutes and made a cuppa using screen wash as fuel.

    It's a cracking site that. I'm always up for making something from nothing. It's all too easy to go out and spend a rake of hard earned when, with a little time and ingenuity you can probably make most items yourself.

    Cheers

    If you want a stand for a pepsi stove ASDA sell a black metal mesh desk tidy for the grand price of £1.48 and it works great with a pepsi stove especially if you make a foil dam in the bottom to contain some preheat fuel.
