I recently bought a Burmos 21 stove that was missing the flame ring. Wanting to test the stove, I improvised a very crude flame ring from materials I had on hand. I found a strip of very thin spring-steel that was 19 mm wide - just the size I needed. I first heated the steel to bright-red and let it cool slowly to anneal it and make it workable. I then cut a series of notches on one edge, and bent that part of the strip some 45 degrees out. Then I rolled the strip to a ring of the right diameter, and connected the edges by means of two small notches. I put this "ring" in the stove and fired it, assuming that after the first test I will discard this "kludge" and look for a solid ring. To my surprise this ring worked so well that I decided to keep it as a permanent part of the stove (or until it eventually burns out). See the photos below. Yonadav
Nice work!!! I like it!!! And looking at the flame I can tell your stove is working great and the flame spreader is doing its job, NICE!. You almost don't need to order a brass one from basecamp. Cheers, Jeff
