CURING YOUR STOVE

CURING simply means baking your paint onto the stove. Always, always do the curing/first burn of your stove outside of your tent, preferably In your back yard. During the first burn there will be smoke and a very strong odor.You do not want this smell permeating the canvas in your tent. You and the tent will both have the smell of burnt paint.

Start your fire and fill your stove full of wood. Adjust the air intake on the stove door 1/2 open. The stove needs to burn at 350 degrees for 3 hours to fully cure the paint. If you build too hot of a fire initially you will burn the paint off before the paint cures on your stove.

 

 

WALL TENT STOVE AND TENT STOVE INFORMATION GUIDE

Main Factors In Selecting A Tent Stove

1. Tent stove heating capacity
2. Cost
3. Weight
4. Deciding on galvanized, titanium or steel construction
5. Size
6. Options and standard features available on a wall tent stove

Click Wall Tent Stove for pictures and info on the 35 tent stove and pack stove models by Cylinder Stoves, Four Dog Stove, Kni-Co Stove, Kwik Kamp Stove, Riley Stove, Mountaineer Stove, Titanium Stove, Sims Stove and Idaho Stove. I have a stove or pack stove that will meet your budget and requirement. Tent stove and pack stove prices start at $105.00.

Discussion of Wall Tent Stove Features

General: All my stoves have been used for many years and have proven their reliability. I have listed each stove's features thoroughly so you can compare and decide which stove meets your requirements and budget.

Cost: A wall tent stove with the same gauge of metal (thickness) should be very close in price. When comparing wall tent costs ensure you add the cost of options you want as prices for shelves, water tanks and pipes vary significantly between stove companies.

Rolled Steel, Galvanized, Titanium Stoves:

1. Galvanized - Galvanization helps prevent rust. A wise choice when buying a lightweight stove.
2. Titanium - More resistant to burn through and warping. Stronger than steel and weighs about 50% less.
3. Rolled Steel - Non galvanized and will rust quickly if left outside.

Tent Heating Capacity: Most tent stove manufacturers state the very largest tent the stove will heat. You should consider the next larger stove model to ensure you have a warm tent especially for drying out wet clothes and boots if you plan on using a stove in the cold winter months.

Collapsible Stoves vs Non-Collapsible: Stove that collapses for compactness . Unless space is a critical factor, a non-collapsible stove is recommended.

Pellet Stoves: Stoves that burns pellets. Used in environments where wood is unavailable. Some models of pellet stoves burn pellets or wood.

Double Wall Stove: Riley stoves are the only lightweight tent stove company that have both a double bottom and double wall. (Colt models and larger) Riley stoves makes a high quality lightweight stove because the double bottom reduces the chance of a bottom burn out. Riley double wall tent stoves makes for a durable and heat efficient outdoor wood stove.

Weight: Stoves that heat a 12'x14' tent can weigh 30-40 pounds. If you need a stove at a base camp or tent camping near a road buy the stove you need regardless of size or weight.

Packing: Packing smaller stoves fit into panniers easily or as a top pack. Larger stoves can also be easily fit into larger panniers.

Features and Options: Most tent stoves have the same options and features. However, some of the smaller stoves do not have a water tank or shelf that fits into the firebox due to the stove's size.

Storing and Transporting: I prefer a stove that all the accessories fit inside of the firebox for ease of transporting and storing.

Stove Metal Thickness:

1. Gauge - The lower the gauge number, the thicker the rolled steel or galvanized steel. Thicker metal increases strength, durability and weight.
2. Metal Thickness - common gauge thickness used in tent stove construction:
   1. 10 gauge .135 inches
   2. 12 gauge .105 inches
   3. 14 gauge .074 inches
   4. 18 gauge .05 inches
   5. 22 gauge .03 inches
   6. 24 gauge .024 inches

LIGHTWEIGHT STOVES TO PACK IN:

1. Individuals packing in normally take a lightweight stove. However, some individuals take a heavier stove and "cache" it if they use the same hunting camp every year.
2. Collapsible stoves fold down on themselves and are occasionally used by packers. Only about one half of the stove space on a pack horse is saved because the stove pipe and any other accessories must also be packed in. Stove pipe and accessories normally fit inside the firebox of a normal stove. The biggest drawback of a collapsible stove is that the firebox is not airtight and some smoke will in in your tent.
3. Lightweight stoves primary drawback is the thin metal bottom will burn through much faster than the heavier metal stoves. I recommend you put one inch of dirt inside the firebox to reduce the heat on the bottom of the stove firebox. The two most common lightweight stoves used for packing in are the Riley Stoves and Kni-Co stoves. The larger Riley stoves, Colt and larger, have double walls and double stove bottoms and are very durable. However, the Riley stove is much more expensive than the Kni-Co single wall and bottom stoves.
4. A damper for your stove is strongly recommend. I hunt in Wilderness areas and all wood has to be cut by hand. A damper makes your stove 10-15% more efficient. Which means you will reduce the amount of wood you have to cut by 10-15% if you use a damper. This 10-15% increased stove efficiency is very important when you cut wood by hand.
