[pct-l] cook pots



I use a grease pot from wallmart. It costs about $7 and works great for one
(maybe 2 depending on the people) person. I made my soda can stove and
windscreen from these instructions:

windscreen

The pot has no handle, but I just wear a glove and grab the pot. It comes
with a nice tight fitting lid, and I can pack the stove, windscreen, and a
few extras (I put my spice bag in it). It weighs very little and works great
for me.

And per Yogi's post... It is made of aluminum I think.
