Hello again. I'm just finalizing my Spring kit purchase list now. There has been a great amount of generosity in the form of knowledge imparted in the Campcraft Questions thread and I hope novice/intermediate Bushcrafters find the information useful.

Concerning cooking purchases, this is what I have in mind to buy

Stove and can (free - Cheers, Colin)
Mess tins
Drinking cup

Anything else? I'm trying to keep it simple, but is there anything I'd need? I have my own crafted utensils, mind.

:)
 
Have you read the stickies in Kit Chatter and Camp & Carry Taylor? It might save you from repeating previous questions.
 
I can highly recomend the following. Two billy cans and two mugs.
Will give you something to cook in and something to boil water, also a mug and a bowl.
These nest together and will even fit a gas can and stove head inside.

usually around £35 but seen them recently for £15.
Had mine for a good 8years now.

got a link for those?
 
What kind of stove do you have? Would it benefit from having a windshield? Cheap tin foil turkey roasting trays are good to cut up for that purpose. Fold the edges over to save you cutting yourself.

Mess tins suck. Plastic plate and a proper tatonka billy or similar for cooking. Get clever with cooking, use a green stick rack or just a simple stick for kebabs, bacon, bread etc.

If just heading upto our permission we have started taking paper plates :) weight nothing and when finished they just go in the fire! Nay washing up.

any chance of merging the OP's similar threads into one thread to save repetition?

I'll give him a free Bergen if you do (seriously I will) :)
