    Default stainless steel "coffee / Tea" Tins

    Having made a hobo stove i'm thinking of trying out making a wood gasifier.....

    but i've got my mind set on finding two stainless steel tins with lids that fit in each other with around a 10mm gap

    anyone able to help out i can't seem to find any..........

    Home base sell double walled stainless steel wine coolers for £6.99. I use these for wood gas stoves.

    Internal holes at top quite easy. Mark holes on masking tape. Tap with centre punch then use a 3 mm drill.

    Bottom holes drilled through both outer and inner chamber from underneath. I've fitted a fan to one of mine and now considering using steam to power the fan as thermoelectric generators are a bit pricey. But boy, a fan makes a huge difference.
