Take that Coleman to the nearest army firing range and get them to put a round through it, preferably full of fuel and pressurised or do like I did and give it to someone you don't like :evilgrin:
Good vid nice to see you and your lad working together - reminds me of my youth when all I did was get in my dad's way :D
I use the army trangia burner with a gelert copper based saucepan and an old drill tin as the stove base it boiled much quicker than the large ally saucepan that makes up the sat, I will test time's and take pic's tomorrow.
Cheers Mark that Coleman brought back lots of bad memories. Bri

Oops, Oh no It didn't, It took just as long as the army trangia that Mark used. "Well slap my thigh and call me Shirley" I didn't expect that, well you learn something new every day (I just learned that I shouldn't have put that quote in )
I suppose that time fly's when your out in the woods. Hear's some pics of the test I did today. 4990499149924993

I'v had the tin for years Al - I worked in engineering for 30 year's and I collect tools like some people collect stamps, anyway I made a stove out of a ally wind shield but it was a bit unstable, and as the drills had migrated from the tin
to a drawer in my tool chest, I decided that it would make a good overnight stove plenty of space for a brew kit lighter and other bits n bobs. The pan supports fold down to either end of the tin leaving a large open space and the 2 black
knobs tighten everything up - they just get in the way when you are trying to stuff it into a full Bergen. Cheers Bri

Its the dogs bits Bri .. Well done on a great idea mate.
Looks real stable too real cool bit of kit.

Nice stove Bri, looks very handy :happy-clapping:

[biker-bri]

Thanks but it,s not a new idea, I have seen stoves made from tobacco tins with folding pot stands - using boot polish tins as the burner, much smaller but no room for a brew kit . Cheers Bri

[AL...]

Oh you have just given me an Idea . :D :happy-clapping:

Cheers
AL

[biker-bri]

Look's like Al has disappeared into the depth's of his workshop searching for the elusive "IDEA!" he may never be heard from again :( he will be missed

[AL...]

Cheers
