I thought Id show you guys an alcohol stove I made from a stew can with my Game Warden with some help from my Leatherman. I used the GW to do the cutting, and the Leatherman for bending and a bit of filing. Inside the stew can are 5 aluminum cups to fill with alcohol.
Heres the GW making the first cut. I cut from the second indented line from the top down, and 3 inches wide.
After using the GW to cut the can, it was still sharp enough to cut through 8 sheets of newspaper, and cut cardboard.
And here is the finished stove.
I also made a video testing it that I put on YouTube, so you can see it in action. I used 2 cameras for different angles, and edited it all together frame by frame when trimming each shot:
