Modified Zebra Can (my style)

[topknot]

Hi,
I have been toying with his in my mind for some time. So i got me some s/steel last week and and today (being on stand by) started to work on the handles .
The handle are made this way so they can be pull out through the pot hanging handle. All i got to do is bend the handle to match up with the outside and have a mate spotweld the plate inplace

All comments welcome
Thank you for looking
Cheers Topknot

Looks good, a humongous crusader cup. Imagine the amount of coffee you can get in that

Good mod topknot, really good idea

Perfect size mate. Should make a stonking mug and pot combined.

You have a knack as an inventor!

That's just inspired topknot .... I want one too .

Now I'm wondering if a mod like that would work on a Morrisons pot :bluThinki .

ive been playing with similar idea but only with different type of zebra,a s mine target would be zebras mug that has good lid and fixed handle,and i dont like that handle as it makes the whole thing so bulky to fit...and i have access and skills to tig/spot welding stuff as well.If i only could find proper ss wire and small plate and....most of all,time,i could do mine and post it hhere too.


anyways,great functional and compact idea you got there.

 

[topknot]

Thank you all.
The idea was to have a billy and a over sized cup in one.

Cheers Topknot

topknot love the idea but you said you wanted a billy and over sized mug in one well why not just build a lid for a crusader mug and attach a bail/brake cable handle to it

Great Mod, I like it a lot.

that's an excellent mod i have one in my Kit pile that needs a handle like that but where do you get short lengths of 2to3mm SS wire from? I needed some for other projects but can never find anyone with some. I recon i need about 2m worth

I found my wire from shop that sells welding gear,as i realised that even i have welded with 2,5mm stainless wire,with TIG welder.Two 50cm pieces cost me 4 euros.

I've got a crusader with s/steel lid , (just me) i do not like brake cable handle.

If you look around there are places , got mine from the scrap bin in a workshop. I always put some money in the tea /coffee fund so i can go back later.

Cheers Topknot.
