I thought everyone would get a chuckle out of a novel way to heat the MSR Duo pot on an XGK EX. I assume MSR isn't trying to marketing the...
@Yun124 Thanks! I've already ordered from Fettlebox, and have in the past, so I don't mind the shipping time plus prices are very reasonable....
@hikerduane @presscall Such great news to hear I have options Thank you both for quick replies and I'm glad this cap isn't destined to be marked...
@kerophile i think your link sends me to a pip for normal Svea caps. I took a poor photo but here’s one of the kind I’m searching for: [ATTACH]...
I have a hard-as-rock pip in one of my caps and I'd love to know if anyone has a source for replacements. Fettlebox has been great for regular...
Headlamp late night camp coffee contrast. My late 70s? MSR G. Merely 30g heavier than Whisperlite 600: [ATTACH]
When something fits this perfectly I have to share. I was hoping to limit dents on this fairly uncommon SVEA setup and the 1.9L Sea to Summit...
GSP is a racket run by Pitney Bowes. They definitely charge duties when they're not required to (I have an extensive photo equipment collection...
I've found my MSR Trail Mini Solo fits like a glove on the SVEA 123 and has the added benefit of the plastic cup (as long as you don't melt it)....
@Harder D. Soerensen I think fresh washers will be the ticket. In the meantime, it performed very well with the DIY supports: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
Thanks @Doc Mark. I believe your posts on yellow fuel pumps gave that one above a second life (and saved me the trouble of discovering the...
Thanks, I'll see if I can find new washers in a couple of weeks, but the stove is going into the woods like this tomorrow, and I'm happy with the...
Thank you! I put a divot in and now it’s perfectly balanced with a large pot (5mm higher than the L wire of the older shorter G-style, but still...
I should prob show the final, too: [ATTACH]
Update: found some BBQ skewers and an old post here with rough dimensions, and I’m happy with the solution: [ATTACH]
Lucky! The best I could find (buried in a dusty bin at an outdoor shop two towns over) was this kit for $5, which is still a huge score, despite...
It feels like the later XGK design was an odd step back. Look at the difference in how they seat vs. the original: a wider indent and much looser...
Thanks, Ken. I did that just now (removed, flattened on vice, cracked clamp and pushed rod in), and it did help to a degree, but I might also be...
I'm a long-time lurker, and not much of a poster, but I've not been able to find info on how to stop very loose old XGK pot supports. I have an...
