Marcos: Nope these are not "bunkhouses" so we don't call em bunkhouses. They are usually a wooden frame structure with dimensions of 12'x14' or 14'x16' sometimes larger sometimes smaller. An insulated canvas tent is place over top of the frame and secured. The frames usually have sheets of plywood around the frame from floor to 4' up for extra strength, warmth and comfort. Quite often the "tent frame" (usually prefabricated in town) is just sheeted in with plywood and roofing paper and becomes a "cabin" or "shack". We are very familiar with the coleman "oil stoves" as we call them and still use 'em, as well as all their wonderful and dreadful little idiosyncrasies which you mention and several more as well. Have you ever had one "run away" on ya, now there's some excitement. They now have a technologically improved model that contains a coiled tube on the inside of the burner pot at the bottom so that the fuel is heated and vaporized which improves ignition. They are somewhat more reliable and efficient. Quite often in the very cold temperatures it is common to compliment the stoves by hanging an electric fan above them to push the warm air to the floor. That is when there is the luxury of a generator. You can make yerself quite snug in a well set up "tent frame" Streetnews best revised estimate for drills to start turning on the cap rock by Thursday next week. Any bets? L8er Regards Taz
