The woodstove I am using is really thin walled and did not want to cut the top. When I tested it i got snow to melt and boil in 17 minutes and kept a steady boil. I have been using this system and it works good enough for now. The pan I am using is 24x14 on top of the stove.


I come to the conclusion of to many boiling soda when I cant function the next day. Or have to leave the sled at the shack and have to walk back up to the house. I ride through the woods and would wrap myself around a tree.
