I used to work for a company where we made optical devices. We were loaned a competitor's product to try. It was soldered into a metal box with a...
I am envious. Here in Canada we have had such a monoculture of stoves, unless one wants to buy from overseas in recent years thanks to online...
The artwork on that stove is very nice. Maybe not needed for mountaineering but it would make any picnic better. Bruce
Lacking a 725 to steal a roarer plate from, I made something up from spares. An interesting experiment, and it works but I'll stick with the...
A suggestion for measuring a diameter while lacking a large caliper: Measure the circumference (string, small flexible tape measure, etc) and...
Just noticed this post. I wish I had seen it earlier, as I have just recently tossed out a rotor for being worn down too far. Thanks for the...
Ooh..that's a charming (but fiddly looking multipiece) design. I'm glad someone is making new interesting stoves, but the dealbreaker for me would...
I use it, in Trangia and Turm down here in S.W. Canada. Due to some odd law about the packaging I must buy it in the 4 x 1 gallon box. Works fine...

I'm in sunny (not today though) East Van, Canada. Bruce
Hi Dave, I have a lantern that uses a very similar system to preheat the vaporizer, and the atomizer is a prodigious user of air. It requires...
That 505 has a lot of knobs, for a kerosene stove. What do they do? I run out of guesses after the usual suspects of pump,throttle, and air bleed....
I have just recently heard of Shapeways, and been considering what to send them as a test job. Something stove related. At my work we have had...
I have luckily or otherwise only been involved in one really serious situation in the outdoors. My companion froze his foot but being an extremely...
In emergency comms devices, just as they say about firearms, better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. Bruce
I'm with Knotty on the phone issue. Not taking a phone is a choice, but maybe not the best. Unless I were extremely weight limited I would have it...
I've got a few of those HR canisters, but no stove for them. They could be free to a good home, but may not make it over the border by mail....
