The mini trangia wind shield is no where near as effective as the classic one, though weight and bulk savings are significant.
Effectively it's a pot stand - a separate foil wind shield would help whilst maintaining the benefits of less weight / bulk.
Hi everyone,
I remember somebody posting a link to a nice looking tent but I forgot to save the link. The details I remember are as follows:
Origin: Made in UK
Material: Canvas
Colour: Brown (or the example pictures were brown)
Style: Square based pyramid with single central pole

Not an expert and havent done the maths myself but there is plenty on the internet to read.
The following page has a little graph comparing typical costs:

Could you use multiple smaller one bound together? it would be an opportunity to teach some ropework. 2 x 3m or 3 x 2m would be cheaper and easier to source. Maybe try a large hardware store for some pine hand rails?
no issue painting afterwards. Any inevitable little left over bits can be rubbed off with a finger as the bond between silicon and steel isnt actually strong in small pieces - or use fine sand paper if your painting anyway - or as above, wirewool. clean down with white spirit or any other...

My recommendation is to keep the fire a suitable size and make sure it won't spread, use fallen dead wood but avoid cutting down alive or dead trees and avoid scavenging all the fallen wood as the...
Many many places, here are a bunch around the cairngorms within 2 / 3 hours drive of Arbroath.
Generally go to the far end of forrests, just on the outskirts, a couple hundred meters off footpaths is ideal. keeps you away walkers and rangers/wardens etc. Be sensible with fire and don't cut down...
Some large water butts that get filled by the rainwater from the roof of a shed could work. Perhaps have a look at the other allotments to see how they get their water, maybe ask some of the other allotmenteers how they get on without water supply.
The amount of work depends on how big and...
Even with the endless strap arrangement the load would still be pulling out from the wall, the horizontal forces do not simply disappear, you would just be introducing additional force vectors in the vertical direction. The additional friction that the vertical vectors cause could help in...
