Thanks alot Jim

I was wondering about the Calkdera being a cone shape.
Is it for stability or other purpose ?

If I take a can ( say a #10 can ) make holes up and down, and buy a pot that just fits in, will that be almost as effective as the cone ? Or is there something else I am missing ?

Heat source within the #10 can , can either be some sort of home-made alcohol stove or esbit.

My question is related to car camping , not backpacking.


Thanks
