I've mad a bunch and even experimented with a few with good success. Have a couple made out of metal cans that work great but I thought were too heavy for backpacking. I keep them around at the cabin also. For fuel, use "HEAT" gas line additive in the yellow container. $1.30 enough to cook a bunch of stuff. DIY VID. https://youtu.be/wdGu_0eJr3k

I am too lazy to sand off the paint, but they all work well. I found the size and number of holes make a difference in boil times and it is different for each location (Elevation). Lightest stoves out their, but you have to burn all the fuel out of the stove.

I use a 1/16 drill an dremel tool to make my holes. The one I made out of a steel can works best but its heavy. I find 2oz of fuel will heat up a cup of coffee quick and is enough to cook a couple of hotdogs or a full size can of chef boy r'd. Good for me because I'm still building my cabin so I can get something in my belly and get back to work.
