If, like me, you sometimes have the hankering after a nice bright bit of very useful kit, then look here...

Not sure if anyone has already seen or posted about this yet, but I'm a backer after watching the intro video. It looks a cracking well designed bit of kit. No affiliation etc etc.

Nice and shiny,but quite honestly, a bit on the heavy side. I just checked my integrated stand and burner using capillary action and the three checked weighed between 9 and 10 grams. I believe the white box type stove, which is also and integrated burner/stand weighs 20-25 grams.

Priceless. Show us your capillary stove then pda!

It's ok, but do you really need titanium at that price? An aluminium disk and 3 titanium pegs is 5 quid, a lot of money for a simple design

I also use a variety of homemade burners, and this stand will accommodate all of them, plus still be able to use it in a fire if I need to. Heavy ? 29 grams... that will really break my back :eek: I really don't think its expensive either, as my missus is buying it :cool:

There are two capillary action stoves here,one based on a 7 oz soda can, and the other on 12 oz

This video by Hiram Cook shows performance and how to make
