THe drums are horizontal....comes with legs to bolt on , ya cut a hole in the end to put wood in, and cut a hole for the stovepipe. Yup, they are thin, but also easy to get.
I have one of those kazillion BTU thingys that sit on top of a propane bottle. They work nicely for warming stuff up in a hurry.
I used a 55 gal drum for a couple of years before I got a cyclinder stove. I think it's the hunter model.
the drum takes up to much space and space is always limited in a tent. they will also go through a lot more wood and burn faster.
this is in a 12x15
