Accessories, Pot Supports and Windscreens
Whitney
Punch
This is the
punch that was used on most of these projects. It has interchangeable punches
and die sets from 3/32” to 9/32”.
Folding Windscreens
Folding Sterno stove windscreens,
made from perforated aluminum. I
punched all these holes!
Primus Pot and Windscreens
Stove shown with inner and outer windscreens.
Stove Cap with Inner windscreen fits
into the bottom of the top. The thinner outer deflector, fits loose inside of
the main pot.
Windscreen for Open County Kettle
Make them 1” wider than the pot and use coat hanger wire for the pot supports.

Folding Windscreens
The size and number of pages will be determined by the diameter of the pot that you use.
The hinges are 1/16 holes, that #8 lock washers fit thru.
Just twist them open, slide them into the holes and close them back up, instant hinge.
Made from aluminum flashing, available from any lumber supply. Different brands
vary in thickness.
Steamers
MSR StowAway Pot
The steamer is made from a Mirror saucepan, filled with 3/8” holes.
Open Country Coffee Pot 2-5 Cup
Cozy with Cup and Bowl
I got the idea of a Lemonade bowl and cup from Sgt. Rock at http://hikinghq.net/gear/lemonade_bowl.html
I made the Cozy out of the foil bubble wrap and covered it with a foil reinforced tape.
The ridges in the cup make it hard to clean, but other wise,
it is a great combination!
Storage
Storage: A Pringles container makes nice protection for a couple of stoves.
Top stove is a Super Cat with a “wide base” for more stability. [½” off another can, holes are from a previous experiment]
The doughnut ring for the top helps with preheat, it is made out of aluminum flashing with a 1 ¼” hole.
Bottom stove is Side Burner with a Skirt. SBS
