convince me i need a ..........

[Tank]

also as posted by another member this is a cool way to use the SAT. can use with a frying pan

 

[Tank]

in fact looking at the SAT again i cant remember why i moved away from it to the Honey Stove and zebra billy!?

 

[Robbi]

now that looks a great idea even more versatile !

 

[TurboGirl]

i just need convincing that the rollocking from SWMBO will be worth it

Take her out and fake a breakdown, then after an hour, offer her a brew... tis our womanly weakness and she'll be as delighted with it as you will be!! Perfect for a fast 2 cups with burn time for a few chipolatas too, I can't recommend it highly enough but shop around your surplus stores, mine was £8 unissued, with all the bits plus an extra fry pan =)

A very quick hijack.

Does the folded up honey stove fit inside the billy hight wise?

Ta.

It's a no brainer, i use my all the time

With my crusader for a quick brew up

To make flat breads

Using it as a small oven to bake bread

and to make lunch, you need the sticks if you use the lid as a small pan as the handle gets d*mned hot

The two boys both have their own and love them too

sure the burner is not a Trangia, think mine is made by Svea and to be honest - so what if it's not a genuine Trangia?, it's affected by the ambient temps so can be slow, but ive always figured, im out there to enjoy myself, so what's the rush?.

Just get one, you wont regret it

Well if Kepis's post hasn't persuaded you to get one, then nothing will.

 

[Robbi]

i know, i know

 

[RonW]

You don't need it....
But if you want one, an aluminium one will do just as good...

 

[Robbi]

wouldn't stainless be easier to clean ?

 

[Ronnie]

I have one, and love it. Has that lovely heavy duty military vibe to it, and burns like a blast furnace once up to temp.

 

[Kepis]

wouldn't stainless be easier to clean ?

Mine's Ali and it cleans up really easily, all we/I do is to boil up a bit a water in it and then wipe it clean with a tissue

 

[Robbi]

can't get much easier than that

 

[Kepis]

As long as you keep whatever it is your cooking moving in the pan it doesnt stick, even when it does though it still cleans up grand and without a great deal of effort

 

[peaks]

You know it makes sense..............

Get your hand in your pocket and go for it (ooo er)

 

[Barn Owl]

They're alright but I prefer my hobo set up.

I can use meths,gas or wood with it.

 

[Robbi]

these look OK, is the shop good to deal with ?
