Got my Siege Stove Titanium Cross members last week. They are really well made and stabilise the Ikea stove brilliantly - very happy. There was also a bonus of a small folding tin opener too!

(Just a shame I was charged £18 for customs/import/Royal Mail taxes [£10 for HMRC and £8 for Royal Mail:cussing::banghead2:]).

Ikea stove? Is this a hobo stove made from an Ikea cutlery drainer?

A DPM Arktis Smock off ebay - very happy
Bought a couple of very good very cheap DPM smocks the past month or so, including an absolute corker gabardine one for hardly nothing. :)

Found this and have been looking for somewhere to put it so as I don't lose it. THis seems as good a place as I can imagine.

Last weekend I acquired this little 12 inch Bow Saw for a very good price. Some time ago I made a take down Buck Saw and it works very well, but a little Bow Saw was something I had been hunting for a while, only because I'm lazy and don't have to assemble it every time I want to use it.
It fits nicely into my Bergan and fills the gap between Lap Lander and Buck Saw and with the correct blade fitted makes short work of firewood..:D

That's the way to do it :) . But you do seem to have a better quality charity shop than we have around here :(
