Mags,
Don't take this as an insult, but the world's ugliest dog died last week, and the world grieved. Your stove system, as much as you love it, is ready for this same transition into the next dimension. Possibly to Monte Dodge's backpacking museum, or your beloved box of camping begotten stuff. I love the pot, the stand, and the stove, it shows what is really possible for the true alcoholic; but Paul, it's time for a new puppy!!

For anyone who is curious, my lovely cookset with the
"bent coat hanger potstand" (TM).
The total cookset weigh is below:
2 qt. Alum. Pot w/ tinfoil lid
4.500 oz
Beer Can Stove .375 oz
Windscreen 1.250 oz
Coathanger Potstand .875 oz
Ziplock Bag .375 oz
I like a big pot for my thru-hiker appetite. a 1 qt
pot does not cut it. I think a 1.5 ltr pot would do
the trick...but my pot has too much mileage on it now
for me to give up. :) (Long Trail, PCT, CT and
whatever else I've done since 1999).
The entire cookset in pictures:

My preschooler-esque stove:

(Used this one since 2001, there have been others)
The stove, stand and pot. Hard to believe I eat from
this setup. :)
