Re locking mechanism. I've made one that I've used for the past 18 mths. It's made out of 6 mm poly-carbonate and the tabs are glued on using superglue (I used locktite) , I mainly use it when I'm traveling for work. I put a 240 lead thru the back window to run the fridge, when i am in camp or staying in a motel , and also to keep the car not melting inside during summer. It's just the right width to let the window lock into the 2nd slide point. Probably not perfect for someone determined, but have stayed in quite a few smaller towns in north west NSW and had no trouble to date.
Ah, should have said long weekend - 4 days actually, so let's call it $0.87 per day...:DQuote:

I've got a similar unit, but I've found that when it is cold, the gas in those canisters freezes making them almost unusable. You can still (just) get a flame out of them, but not enough to do anything useful with.Quote:

They are a nice, cheap and easy stove to take along sometimes though, or on day trips.
We also have one very similar to this. For most things, we use a Cobb Cooker, but the Cobb isn't always ideal, especially for something quick like boiling a kettle - the little gas unit has always managed to fill in where the Cobb is not suitable.Quote:

$69 dollars at Supercheap, had it for years, Companion 5 litre bottle is 30+ years old, had it tested twice, nice and compact, lasts for weeks, Regards Frank.
Ive gone completely fuel free with regards to cooking. I used a silverfire survivor rocket stove that runs on sticks, as well as a firebox and a firebox nano.
I can't see the point in carrying fuel in a country where everything you pick up is highly combustible.
Yes, I know.. you can't use them in a total fire ban, but I haven't found that to impact me all that often. If its likely I throw in fuel stove.
