what about helium foamed polyurethane? :cool:

those survival will-anything-can-nothings are useless if you´re not J. J. Rambo acting in Hollywood .... read www.buck-184.com and think about carrying a heavy piece of steel with limited use (saw with parallel flanges, void warranty if using grappling hooks). If your emergency kit...

no question on bike trips I carry & use both oven & washing machine. The oven is a DIY-extra to my "T" stove, the washing mashine is also homemade and is in operation :drive: while I´m riding the bike Fresh bread and clean clothing is the real luxury that separates you from the standard...

maybe one of you knows what it is: small axe head, curved edge, upper part of blade curved like on Iltis axes, no marks, numbers, signs & stamps (wire brush cleaned and checked with petrol) groove inside eye at poll side top of eye smaller edge length 90mm (corner to corner) middle of...

.... a wristwatch and (a visible) sun moss on freestanding trees and rocks ;)

don´t know what the best Bc compass is... I use a Recta DP (the compass function starts with the basic DP2 model, higher model numbers indicate additional functions) - the mirror beeing underneath the compass body shows a "true" image of the compass rose and a Silva Field 7 (beeing a...

oh that turned out maybe a little in the wrong direction: the alu pots were government issued - not the bad memories. The rumors about alu and constant forgetting - that came IMHO probably from some starting-semester student or a professor who wanted some publicity. I don´t follow that track...

there are lots of folding bikes on the market ranging from cheap & heavy supermarket junk to high quality handmade bikes - it´s mainly a matter of your priorities: you´ll get what you pay. Airnimal, Bike Friday, Brompton, Dahon, R&M Birdy, Moulton etc. www.bromptonauten.de/konkurrenz1.html...

all true ... ... but a little bit heavy :rolleyes: :) if you´re walking or biking. wait a minute - those are stoves in operation? You´re doing what with stoves with no pot/pan on? Contributing to global warming? No, you´re helping summer to get get started :D

ti and st/st are much easier to clean "in the field" plus some very bad memories about alu pots issued by my government (not "T"-alu) addyb: your windshield isn´t high & wide enough -you´re wasting fuel & time. For what it does the T 28 pot/burner holder is by far too heavy: ~50g. I´ve...

well, I´d say it all depends - maybe those potatoe bags are lightweight and filled with lightweight (dehydrated) potatoes :D 5.99 how much is that in $? Seems to be at not so very low budget ..... I guess a roll of standard household aluminum foil is a little less and makes some more (one...

nice windshields - weight? wow - a folding spork - great. Is the handle made from ti too? weight?

one liter (~ a quart) of cold water bringing to a rolling boil on an alc. stove in 9 minutes indeed is very fast - usually it takes that time for about half a liter (~ a pint). The question is on what temperature the tests were done, indoors/outdoors, sunshine/rain/hail/snow, wind speed...

oh no, I don´t use mugs that big. Maybe I was a bit confused by this:

wow, a mug full of water boiling in about 9 minutes - really quick.... ... compared to have the winters sun doing the heating. :lmao: Titanium itself is expensive, the working with titanium is expensive too. Titanium is a no-go material for alc.stoves (the evaporation takes far too long)...

and what are you supposed to do in case of an emergency? Assemble your bike first or run? Kind of solution whitout problem IMHO. If they want to steal your gear they´ll do it, that sort of bike-tent combo doesn´t help. If weight is the point take a Faster Card...

not sure, maybe it´s more than just the speed of boiling ... the longer the chimney the faster the stove .... compare a woodstove with a volcano type kettle - using the same type and the same amount of fuel. The chimney extension will for sure make a Kelly at least 2.6295154 seconds...

as many of you know I´m really in to those volcano stove kettles and like my 1pt. Kelly Kettle very much. Lots of other kettles in various sizes of this volcano type are made by a number of manufacturers - but this one outperforms them all...

some more: Gamma Goat (the uggly wheeled cube with powered & steering trailer) (ex Bucher - now .... Mowag ) DURO (in 4x4 or 6x6) big google.com has the infos you want about the above mentioned vehicles btw, I´m using a 2x1 ;)

your information is correct, "Trangia" is stamped on the burner only. Pardon me if I confused the forum members. :o :( Set 1. windshield: 3 crown symbol (3 c.s.) NC 67 SVEA pot: Gense burner: 3 c.s. Trangia ( different from the current logo, it has a similiar type of letters...
