Hey Guest, Early bird pricing on the Summer Moot (29th July - 10th August) available until April 6th, we'd love you to come. PLEASE CLICK HERE to early bird price and get more information.
Very nice RB. I like it a lot. My pack pal has the same grind which continues into the handle and the coffin tang. Shame you Dad appears to have nicked it :roll:

Schwert, you might try out the fire spout mini. I bought one but have not had a chance to try it out. There's not much to it and no base. The fire is right on the ground. Very heavy duty though. If this one burns well, I might try to make one out of lighter material. Like maybe a coffee can. :rolmao:
I'm going to try mine sitting on a cookie sheet, like the pocket cooker above.
fire spout mini
theres a load of variation on this theam around theres one called the "hobo stove" looked quite good!

a mucket, IIRC also known as a corn boiler is a large mug/kettle/billy can with both a cup handle and a bail, and a hinged lid like a beer stein.
a quick google for "mucket corn boiler" throws up several sources

Ravenn, glad sargey got back to you on that. Mucket's are nice. Mine is not traditional because it's stainless.
If you click on that link you posted for the pocket cooker, then click on the "click here to purchase" link, it just kicks you to their main page.
My guess is that they no longer carry it.
Another victim of Herblock's Law. Thanks for the efforts folks. I guess I will finally have to get out the church key and my coffee can....

Thanx Chris, Schwert,and Hoodoo,
shame about the cooker too,seemed like a good idea.
Oh well..back to perfecting the "Beef Stew Can Trangia Stand" so far, it fits inside my Peak 1 Outfitter small billy. Wind screen next.

Schwert, you could always try this twigburner. As you might remember, I got this idea off a website but unfortunately I do not have the link to it handy. Plus I feel really guilty that I have yet to try this out. But I expect great things from it. And it is very light. If anyone has the link, please post it. Also, sorry for the thread drift but sometimes these things happen in good ways. 
And just to help keep us on track, here's another scandi packpal pic:

:biggthump Right you are ,Gary!! I love that concept. But inthe interest of economics,(and the future hope of an Allen Blades knife,or BRK&T product) the stew can/hardware wire stand will fill in. of course.. there is also the state lotto.. hmmm need tickets...Gary said:

Who said I chose one over the other? I have both. :wave:
I really like the coffin tang though. Very comfortable design and very strong, especially the way Allan does his. And in the winter, the coffin tang is a lot easier on the hand than the full tang with it's exposed metal. Also, I generally prefer the balance of a coffin tang over a full tang, unless the tang is tapered. It's just personal preference and a minor one at that.
