The stove tec website sells some how to books on making low tech, efficient cooking stoves, solar and wood. These publications were published by Aprovecho research center, cottage grove Oregon

" These how-to publications produced by Aprovecho Research Center and associated organizations can help you understand how to design and build fuel-efficient heating and cooking stoves of various kinds. Most designs are for biomass stoves, but solar and retained-heat cooking are addressed as well. The instructions in these manuals can help you construct your own energy-efficient heating and cooking stoves from relatively simple materials, and understand the design principles behind clean biomass consumption."

and they can be downloaded for free. It would be good to put these on a thumb drive and to print them out for future reference if needed.
