[Stoves] upside down bathtub drain effect

Man, Richard, that is a nice looking flame.

>Kobus Venter, John Davies and I also tried to diffuse the gassified flame on Kobus' then emerging gassier stove, (~2004/5), by replicating a normal LP gas burner top. We simply cut off end of a tin can (sides were about 1" high--enough to just fit into the stove top) . We added a series of ⅛" dia  holes not on the top but on all round the  side wall  tin can.   

If you have that attached to a downdraft or side-draft combustor you may have been able to maintain it indefinitely. We gotsta' think along those lines to reach Nirvana.

PS Where is Kobus anyway? eThwekini?
