That's a really cool site with "hobo stove." I'm going to study it, but I'd hesitate to use an old paint can. That Japanese guy, I must see his Web site though he sounds a little nuts:

SuperShioshio lives in Yokohama in Japan, he's a mountaineer and he collects backpack camping stoves. "I seem to be attacked by stoves," he says -- he has more than 200 of them, stoves of every possible type, all on display at his website.

I do believe I've owned at least 10 different stoves, including three canister types, one alcohol, two kerosene, three gasoline, a sterno stove, and possibly others I can't exactly remember.

But owning 200 stoves probably has no practical use, even for non-novice poseurs, and are only valuabble for general education, as in museum pieces or an academic record.
