What is a Flour-Drum Stove?

A Flour-Drum Stove is an innovative cooking device for healthy outdoor meal preparation.  Take one empty Flour-Drum, cut a rectangular door in the side for adding fuel.  Next, cut some horizontal slits around the top of the drum and more about 20cm from the bottom of the drum, and then open up the slits by pushing in one side of the slits in with your thumb.  Your stove is now complete and read for use (download the instruction manual for making a stove).  Next, place some dry leaves and sticks inside the stove and ignite.  Add more sticks and allow the fire to create some coals.  Place the cooking instrument on the top of the stove (a wok is a very versatile cooking instrument and fits perfectly on the stove).  The effect of the slits is that air can enter the bottom slits to provide oxygen for combustion, and smoke and heat can escape from the slits around the top of the drum and allow draft to occur.  You will need to keep on adding sticks through the rectangular fuel door from time to time.
