no not heavy same thickness as the stove, the tabs will fold up or down but i just leave them, and stick it in my rucksack, helps keep it flat and no scorching on the ground
Evening All,
I was lucky enough to receive a Honey, from a wonderful person, as a Birthday gift last week.
I was itching to try it in the field, but due to commitments I wasn't able to get out and about, but couldn't wait any longer.
So, on a very blustery day, I sat in the doorway of my cave ( garden shed ) and fired up the stove just outside. I boiled water for a cuppa first, then as another first I'd always fancied trying to make a sweet Bannock, so here was the ideal opportunity.
I'm not sure if it turned out the way it's supposed to, or if it rose enough, but it gave of a fantastic waffle smell when cooking, and my son and I polished it off in 5 mins when it was done.
I took a few pics, but can't post attachments.
I'm aiming to get it out with it, later in the week.

Trangia burner looks very low down in the stove?
Yea. it was a first attempt with the burner. I have since realised that its a fraction too low and have started placing it more central!!!:11doh:
I've not been out to use my honey stove for quite a while, it's far too wet at the moment but as soon as there is a dry spell I want to go out and fire 'er up!
The weather here is pretty extreme at the moment, I don't think I could get it going!
That is almost blasphemous! the Honey will light in any weather, or at least I haven't been out with it and not have it light.
Traniga stoves are accepted in my new extreme passtime, but you have be in an EXTREME (or is it X-TREME) environment, like this.... (albeit ironing not cooking)
The extreme ironing photo puts me in mind of a new challenge - the most 'extreme' honey/bushcooker/trangia/bushbuddy pic you can produce this winter...

A question to honey user's anyone experianced any rusting? i used mine for the first time in about 3 months yesterday and on removing it form its pouch, noticed the top and bottom plates had rusted up abit,after id used it that day i give it a scrub with a bit of fairy liquid and a pan scourer(nylon and sponge thing)then dried it well , and its come up a bit better, but i though as it was stainless steal it should'nt rust?
well thanks to a recent birthday i now have the money to go out and get my honey stove!
i'll be ordering shortly but can anyone suggest any decent billy cans to go with? atm i have a mil trang so for immediate use i'm dropping the wind shield and using the honey and mil burner, or wood.
my grand plan is to also carry a small frying pan, little 7" jobbie for those egg butties in the morning!
