ultralight cook system (part 3)

the first brew (dans pic)

I expected this project to be completed three and half months ago and four months later it finally is. Their isn't much to say that hasn't already been said but i'd like to immortalise the resources that made this possible in one place.

Supercat stove

The supercat alcohol stove is the brainchild of Jim Wood. Dan suggested we use a hole punch that only makes a single hole and this was a good suggestion so I suggest you do the same.

Captain Paranoia's windscreen generator

Figuring out how to use this template generator took me a very long time. This is the best document I found that explains the inputs in the generator. An important note that will make more sense after having read the document/tried to make a windshield, is that getting the windshield to wrap tight around the handles requires the use of the 'flissure' system but it is not neccesary to have the windshield tight to the handles anyway, it just looks nice. See the coffee pot for an example of the flissure system in use. 

Zen stoves

the rule 34 of ultralight backpacking stove systems.

The kit contains, from outside in:

• cuben fiber pot sack
• aluminum lid
• snowpeak 600 series ti mug
• aluminum windshield
• supercat stove
• magic eraser
• lighter

Notes on a lid:

The aluminum lid on my pot was made using the same aluminum from the windsheild. I pressed the shape using a 3D printed mold with some success. All three tabs were riveted on.
