ultralight cook system (part 1)/new approach

Dan and I have decided to build an ultralight cook system based around the super cat stove, developed by Jim Wood: https://jwbasecamp.com/Articles/SuperCat/

Dan and I walked together last year on the South Downs Way and have came to an understanding over our mutual interest in making our own gear. So many projects I've begun recently have stagnated or progressed at an excruciating pace and I'm desperate to get shit done! With the time we've set aside and the scope of this project I'm hoping for some rapid results. 

So far we've established the stoves need for a windbreaker and stand. To create this with as little weight as possible seems intuitively to mean as few components as possible. 

This model rendered in 0.3mm aluminium sheet shows the stove (gold) under two skewers which I intend to produce from bicycle spokes. This model does not account for the latch system between the halves of the aluminium flat pattern as it will be easier to produce in card prototypes. Atop these spokes will sit the cooking pot, in this instance a snow peak 600 series mug, in which all of this will be contained.  

On the new approach. From now on I'll be using this blog for rolling updates on a variety of projects, I'm not in the mood to be retrospective.
