I like the Stove-Tec, too, and that’s what I own. The price is low and the stove itself is VERY substantial and well made. It’s nothing you can pack for a backpacking trip, but would definitely be useful for camping and in a power outage. People have even used a pressure cooker with it!

One of its best features is its energy efficiency. You can literally cook a meal using just twigs.

There’s a video on my blog demonstrating how to use the stove, www.thesurvivalmom.com. Do a search for ‘rocket stove’. You can also visit their official website, but I don’t know if they have instructional videos.

That's what I was wondering, as I have a pressure cooker/canner.

Here’s a link to Lehman’s Non-Electric Catalog.

It’s an Amish catalog and sells old style, living like pioneers kinds of stuff.

They used to have a barrel shaped device that was for washing laundry. You fill it with hot water and soap and clothes, and seal it up and agitate it some and it was supposed to do a great job at washing laundry.
