[at-l] Tin Can Stove - WOW!

[lwbooher@halifax.com (Leslie Booher)]

There's an e- mail address on the letter that's enclosed with the stove.  I
wondered about that tape myself, because he suggests taking it apart and
seeing how it's made, and I intend to do that, but I need more of that tape.
What's AC tape?  My guess would be to punch the holes before you put it
together.  Would some insulation help control the flame a bit?  The
TinCanStoveMan did allow as to how he'd take cash donations.  He's
unemployed.  And he's found a way to cut the postage down; my stove arrived
today on 21¢ postage.  Wow!  Leslie (anklebear)
