So I was discussing UL pop can stoves in a previous thread and think I finally have a couple of stoves that are well made. This in mind I wanted to make up a UL kit for myself. I have a 1300ml Ti pot on the way, but if it's just for a quick boil up, my GSI cup will do.
So the stove is made of pop cans, as is the windshield, cover is a tomato can lid, and the pot stand is made from a smaller tomato can. I do need to drill some holes along the top and bottom of the stand for airflow and weight. Total weight is 202g, but would be 217g with my spork included. I originaly wanted to make the pot stand of thick wire mesh bent into a cylinder but could only find a giant roll of it at the hardware store. Wanted to keep this low cost so I think it turned out okay.
Thoughts?
