That's packed away where ever my tent is." Great..... here we go again. Screw it.... I'm buying a whisperlite shaker and I'm just not going to worry about it. I had hoped to find a used stove too, but I'll just have to suck it up. For the cheapest, most reliable stoves around check out http://wings.interfree.it/html/main.html For the cost of some JB Weld and a thumb screw you can have an unlimited supply of camping stoves. I use the hareware wire stand and aluminum flashing for the windscreen. Get one of the cheap safty can openers that leave a lip on the lid when you open a can and use the lisd for your base. These stoves are great for boiling water. If I want some lower temp cooking I just bring along a triangia alcohol stove for simmering duty. For less than a pound I can have 5 stoves along on a trip. Of course the best thing about them is that they are just plain fun.
