Swampdonkey...years ago we used a piece of aluminum roofing valley to make a three sided potstand/wind break.. very short burner (we used paraffin/cardboard in a shoe polish tin)and carried an extra 1/4# block of paraffin... folded flat and very little weight...I used one for several years without any noticable metal fatigue from folding/unfolding... would something like this for a stand/windscreen work to decrease your bulk problem?
