I’m back with another quick, easy and cheap DIY project. When cleaning up the other day I saw a oil lamp I had made a few years ago. I had completely forgot about it. After having sat for a few years I gave it a try and it worked just as good as ever. For this tutorial, short as it will be, I wanted to make a new one. That way I could show you step by step and now I have two and two is one after all. Let me show you how to turn trash into a great little oil burning lamp.

Coffee Can Hobo Stove
Stoves and cooking are two things I love. Maybe I’m just a pyromaniac foodie at heart. After several alcohol stoves, esbit stoves and my Jetboil with modifications, I decided it was time to make a wood burning hobo stove.

I watched every Youtube video on it and read lots of reviews. At the time I ignored the review that said it was only good for boiling water. Which ended up being proven. Today I’m going to show you a cheap DIY fix to make it more useful.
DIY Headlamp
Sometimes I try my crazy ideas and they sort of work. Today I have a project for you that is super easy and works perfectly. I got this idea from watching a Nutnfancy video on YouTube. He was wearing a headlamp band from Fenix that hold a flashlight. I thought what a great idea. Instead of using a separate headlamp (which I own a few of) you could use you nice EDC flashlight. I have a Streamlight that gives off 190 lumens, way brighter than any of my headlamps and with more features. The Fenix one looks nice with plastic and adjustments, it also looks heavy. I decided to make one that way simple and light
