I saw a clip on you tube whilst looking to make my own mehhs/alcohol cooker.
I had all the equipment in my house that's probibly why i made it.
(MOST PEOPLE WILL HAVE - WAX, CARDBOARD, TUNA TIN).
We take one out most times we go into the woods it boils a camping kettle no worries and has never let me down.
I wrapped some cardboard in tin foil for a wind guard and take three nails to rest/raise my kettle.

Not the clip i first watched but same reliable burner.


Cost nothing to make - saves on gas - boils kettle every time - what more can i ask?

Thank you Martin, i'm a bit of a technophobe, i tried my best lol.

I watched your vid; 3 day with 10 items.
Pretty good, but i was looking forward to seeing which items you all took and also if you got away with your 'more dicey' decisions.....

No worries Klause. Looks like we'll just have to do the whole thing again this year and be careful to note what kit we take this time. ;)
