Another simple but effective post! Came here from xboil post, and really like the cheap and cheerful set up you've shown here rather than the 50euro xboil..thanx for both posts..but especially this one!

No problem. It's a good set up and I prefer the des catty burner to the x Boil. And as you said, considerably cheaper. Even if you bought shoe polish and then the mesh and wick it'd probably cost more than the burner. Head to www.outdoorgearessentials.co.uk if you wsnt to buy it. 👍

I don't have a Des Catty's stove but the first stove I bought was a Polymath Phantom. They are very similar and with the Polymath (I can't see why the Des Catty's would be any different) you can use the lid as a gel fuel burner. The Polymath and a couple of gel fuel blocks will always go into my bag as a back up to my Trangia Mini. If both fail I'll be abandoning camp!

You probably could if you took the liner out of the lid. It has one to stop and fuel leaking out that you've left in the stove.

Ha, I only few weeks ago modified my wind shield, took a few plates off to fit more snug around my 750 ti pot, which I sit on an Evernew alcohol stove with/without cross stand, with the Lixada windshield to better concentrate the flame. I found the pin on one end of the windshield doesn't go far enough into the ground to be of any use so modified that too,,, I have a Cascade table, but never thought to stick the pins in it, nice idea Michael

If you drill a hole in the centre of each of the panels of the folding windscreen it can double up as a pot stand for your burner by using pegs or skewers. Just drill them at a height to suit the burner.

Cheer's Mike. Much appreciated. The great thing about this stove is that if you knock it over it doesn't spill fuel out unlike trangia or cat can stove. It's held inside soaked up in the material so it's really safe. Can then be own out simply. Have you ever seen a jetboil tip over? Didn't realise how dangerous they were. Check summit or nothing video where he accidentally knocks it over. The thing shoots out a burst of flames, really surprised. Atb 👍
