Gas Bottle Log Burner

Find your self an old empty gas bottle, open the tap to let out any gas. Next fill with water to displace any gas which might be inside.

I marked out the door using masking tape, then mark and attach your hinges, I drilled and taped the holes and fitted 4mm machine screws.
Next mark and drill holes around the bottom of the gas bottle to allow air to fuel your fire.
Using an angle grinder remove the top of the gas bottle.

Using a 4inch angle grinder cut the hole for the door.

Re attach the door and check your hinges work. I wanted to add a hot plate to the top of the burner but didn't have any thick steel plate so I used a few off cuts, marked these up and cut the holes in the top of the bottle.

I used some 4inch square section to create the flue.

I used some nuts, threaded bar and strips of steal to create the handle and mechanism. I also used strips if steel to create a lip around the door.

I welded a grill together to sit the fire on which will allow air to circulate under the fire and hopefully burn better.

To raise the burner off the ground I welded on three legs, no wobble with 3 legs.

I used a paddle disc to remove the paint from the gas bottle.

Spray painted using stove and bbq paint.

Well the first fire is a roaring success, I'm really impressed with how much heat it gives off...if I was to make it again I would make the door smaller so the fire doesn't fall out when it's opened
