It might baffiliationsrest to other SVEA 123 owners and users that the myti pot from alpkit nests wonderfully, almost like it was made for it. I have no affiliations other than I'm a happy myti pot owner!

I use both, at home and outdoors with both black and green teas. I do have a preference for leaves though as tea bags feel such a waste

Why pay £20 for a new one, I have picked up two of mine from car boot sales for only a couple of quid. I would be interested to know where to get a mould from to make my own candles though!

I do that! hammocking seems pretty addictive, I now find that I change my walks to include any group of trees to check out the possibilities for hanging

I have also lost a sigg bottle to meths, I left it stored in there for 6 or 7 months ish. I miss the sigg bottle but now use a good strong plastic one some meths came in.

I seem to have acquired a few of these over the years, including a nice Brass one and a couple from REI. The brass one is too heavy to carry about so my wife uses it for car camping. I have to say that I've had none of the problems listed here and have not broken one yet, although I can...

I like others here like my pans to be clean inside and out, I don't mind a bit of a trace from the fire on the bottom of my pans but I dislike a thick coat of soot. So like a few others I use a thin coating of washing up liquid to protect them. It makes the clean up simple.

Now I do like that, we use some wire baskets about the same size as a supermarket basket. But Yours folds down and keeps the fire off the floor! I can see me looking for old ovens soon. What a good idea

I have been using a pair of Polaris cycling shorts, these are not the usual lycra jobbies, they are nice and baggy with mesh side pockets and a mesh lining to ventilate and keep the heat down :D. Oh yes the cycling pad is removable so you don't have to keep that in and look like you have had an...

Very nice piece of kit there, I could do with some of them in my HQ.

I have an Enzo which has now been relegated to our Scout Hut as a knife for general duties and live in the box with all the moras, my pack knife is now a Helle much lighter to use and holds a far better edge. There are much more expensive knives about and I guess people will buy what they...

Yes i also have one its about 10 years old now and is used all over the house and in my workshop if I need the extra bench space. The best use I get from it is outside at sales and wood fairs. I have a couple of vices one a carpenters and one a mechanics bolted to a piece of ply with a batten...

I made one of these a few years back to help with a old sleeping bag and got another few seasons out of it, but I did have problems with it wrapping around me and being irritating. I added some velcro to the bottom of my sleeping bag to attach the liner which helped somewhat. But eventually i...

Works for me! Many thanks for that

I have had issues with Vango when I returned a tent that was so badly made it was not fit for use. I then had to chase Vango for 6 months to send the replacement they promised within a week. Neither the tents or the company are what they used to be.

If you are going to use these for climbing and absailing you need to buy new. There is no sense in chancing your life on equipment that may have been misused or abused. It really is not worth it.

I have a special 6, very good piece of kit, I can only echo what has been said previously. I have used mine in my kayak and canoe. I am usually too hot without the pit zips fully undone, even in low temps and driving snow.

Hi Richard I use one of these, Its achinese copy of an optimus nova. I stripped the burner out and fitted a optimus/trangia conversion kit.The only other mod was to cut a hole in the windshield to let the hose through, (1979 vintage windshield) It was as simple as that. this I hope is the...
