    I have 2 Stormies, one with a windscreen made for standing on the ground with a burner for threaded cartridges.

    The other is only for hanging with a bleuet burner with puncture cartridges.

    I want to find some legs I can place under bleuet burner or a ring with legs

    I found a burner at Alliexpress but the legs were not the right type.

    The first photo is also a rebuilt. I had a Bleuet type and a very soft copy windscreen, where I transferred the bottom to the bleuet windscreen. That is why there are nuts showing.
    I can't find any screens with feet any longer.

    The legs off a Coleman peak 1 apex 11 are suitable for this. They bolt on.

    I have it but there are, to me, several disadvantages:
    The cooking "tower" is too unstable
    The pierce cans are not so usual anymore and an adapter for threaded can is another thing to carry
    You can't unscrew it without loss.
    I like to warm my can of butane in winter over or close to the flame. I need the can on a tube for that.

    And I would need to find the old style bleuet for the windscreen to fit into the holes .

    It's true, the Campingaz plastic base is not as stable as the metal feet.
    I have this Markill model 20532, new in the box, it is actually better thought out. It also has piezo ignition.

    Oj oj, I always wanted a piezo.

    I have never seen that before. Is it original?

    Do you have some closeups?

    What country was it bought from?
