I need a fuel bottle

[sapper1]

I need a fuel bottle to carry meths,but no ordinary bottle.
It needs to be plastic and fit inside an evernew solo cookset along with the burner and dx stand the bottle needs to be a short wide type any body have any ideas?

I'm not sure what the dimentions are you are looking for, but I use one of these

and find it a perfect accompanyment to my Trangia

How about one of the nalgene bottles with a pouring lid?

If you turn the bottle upside down the top fits inside the middle of the burner placed at the bottom if that makes sense.

Post up some dimensions and I will have a look. I might have a bottle that will fit.

Do you use a windsheild Kev,or is the dx good enough not to warrant one?

Thanks Donnie

Haven't got the DX (yet ), so I use my burner in my honey stove, but it seems to work well enough, although if it was really windy I'd probably use a foil windshield or another bit of kit as a windbreak.

Somewhere back in the distant past I remember seeing a post where someone carried meths in what looked like a miniature platypus type bottle..
It was about palm sized and could be folded and bent to fit the space available..

anyone remember it? or where to get one?
