here are pics of my stove, it is made of stainless sheet stock and weighs about as much my snowpeak trek 900. the trek 900 sits down in the stove, resting on the rolled rim of the pot. this insulates the sides of the pot somewhat and makes it very stable. I put 4 triangular cutouts along the bottom, keeping part of one side clear if i need to block them from wind, and 4 rectangular cutouts at the same level as the bottom of the pot. I can boil 2 cups of water with a hand full of sticks in around 6 min. it also works well with an alcohol stove, pressurized popcan type. i have not tried it with an open alcohol stove but i think it would still work well, I add twigs through the hole near the handle, in my next version I will have a hole on the opposite side from the handle for adding fuel, and the handle hole will only go down far enough for the handle to keep the handle cooler and the stove more stable. hope this is a design others will try. thanks.
