[pct-l] 2 person stove setup

[Toby Maxwell]

Trail designs makes a 'caldera cone' setup which I have for many different
pots.  I have fit 50 mL of fuel in the stove that comes with the setup (its
a soda can stove) just to see how much could fit, and typically its about 15
mL HEET/Cup to boil, im sure you could fit 60 mL in the stove, though
technically they dont advise it theres plenty of space i believe.  They make
a setup for their own 2 quart pot, not sure if theres any other pots that
are large that they make them for, it seems they may be low on inventory.
they sell them through antigravity gear here:
