I figured it was something like that but I just couldn't resist.......

So, you have to cook the stove over a fire for it to work? :rolleyes:;)

We have both of the larger Solo Stove twig stoves, the Titan and Campfire, along with the pots and lids that were paired with them. The Titan nests into a 1.8L pot while the Campfire nests into a 4L(?) pot. The stoves and pots each have their own carry sack and the bagged stove nests into the...

Welcome from Pinnacle, North Carolina. Where in the state are you? Lance

I hadn't thought of Amazon but it sows a minimum charge of $6.99 USD to ship to Canada. This might be worth looking into for our Canadian brethren.

@scoutergriz, Ontario is huge province so I don't know how far you are from a Walmart or if you'd have to order Nido online but the link above is to Walmart in Canada. It shows as being considerably more expensive than it is here even if one allows for the exchange rate. Here in North Carolina...

Pretty much every vacuum sealer, whether the waffle bag style such as Foodsaver or the commercial chamber vacuum sealers, has a port to plug in jar sealers, vacuum storage containers, etc. https://www.amazon.com/FoodSaver-FCARWJAH-000-Wide-Mouth-Regular-Accessory/dp/B016OL1AB6?th=1 They work...

Or just use Nido whole dried milk if it's available. We buy the big cans and store it in vacuum sealed canning jars to keep it fresh. It keeps for years that way. https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/Nido-Full-Cream-Milk-Powder-Nestle-900g/PRD1NU3S0IQ5RO7 Lance

@Bob B. , my mom has been gone for 50 years now but I still have memories of her using a homemade version of Bisquick on back country trips and camping trips to make biscuits, dumplings, cobbler topping, pancakes etc. We used a lot of it. She used to make it 5-pounds at a time and store it in...

And for those who prefer a video....

For me, 1' webbing is more work and takes more time to install. I find that 1-1/2" gives me the best balance of strap width to being able to space the straps evenly. Polyester is more UV resistant than Nylon or polypropylene and doesn't shrink when wet like Nylon. As far as strength goes...

Here's a good source for a wide variety of webbing styles, colors and material. They will cut to length, too. And they usually ship custom straps in less than a week. https://customtiedowns.com/ This is the type seat webbing I use the most...

@ppine, that seems to be the consensus of the 3-4 people I've heard from with experience with the kitchen pack. And as someone who usually feels that the maximum capacity of a pack or cargo truck is "just one more" i can see their point. Lance

Hmm, a belt fed fully automatic grenade launcher in a small paddlecraft, ehh? I think it's time to merge a couple of threads and deal with the waterproof Bluetooth speaker crowd as they deserve...... Lance

We tend to eat "real food" whenever we can. And we sometimes start with off the shelf freeze dried meals and augment them but we mostly put our own meals together for when the fresh food runs out. We buy bulk freeze dried foods, dehydrate some things and also use a lot of off the shelf grocery...
