Glad I could help! Like you I have been watching for this to go on sale for a while. I ended up getting a second after thinking some more and realizing what a fantastic deal it is. My brother ended up ordering two as well.
They have a great deal on the chairs as well....and the extra 5%...
campsaver.com currently has the Helinox Cot One on sale for $225 and free shipping: http://www.campsaver.com/helinox-camp-cot
I had a 5% off coupon as well and got the price down to $213 :) Too good a deal to pass up
UPDATED - here is the 5% coupon code that still appears to be working...
Few other nices ones. The first is an early model boxed corners 413G that looks to be in exceptional condition but price is a bit steep and may be a bit of a drive:

The next three are 426Bs and all look to be in good shape. Two are much...
Andrew....great job on the restore of that 413F freebie!
Regarding the metal case on the 413Gs and 426Ds, I've found that the early ones with the boxed and metal corners appear to be made of a thicker/stronger gauge steel than those with the crimped corners. If for example with the lid...
I went with the steel cores. I initially bought the composites, but after thinking about it more I ended up sending those back and got the steel cores. I have no doubt the composites would have held up, but I just tend to over build for piece of mind and for worst case scenarios. I've had some...
Yes, I do have a 50 quart and yes I'm 6'0" so I have no issue getting to the contents of the fridge. No issues with getting anything in/out. As an example I can get a boxed up 12 pack in and out with no issues with the lid. If for whatever reason I needed to lift the lid fully open to fit...
I have roughly 20.5" in between both sides...add to that 3" to account for the 1" tubes, given a rough total of a 44" span in width. These measurement are not exact, only close rough estimates. I still need to remeasure each pice for those that want my exact dimensions. Sorry for the delay...
Geez you're right. Complete brain fart. 426d is correct. I'll correct my previous posts so no one else gets sent down the wrong path. Thanks for catching that
Btw the 426C is a great stove as well. A little more stout with the full cased lid and the ability to toss in a 200 series lantern...
Be patient, they come up all the time and frequently. Also check craigslist...finding local will save you a lot of shipping on these big stoves. You can also checkout http://www.colemancollectorsforum.com/ . They have a classifieds section that you can monitor and also post a WTB asking...
All of the 426Ds and 413Gs with the diamonds do have the heavier gauge metal and better designed corners. As do the 426a, b, c...though again these can't accept the side trays.
Simple solution for this. Remove the tank/generator immediately after turning the burners off. there is still a slight amount of vaporized gas in the generator that will escape for 3-5 mins after shutting off and if you don't remove it this gas then accumulates inside the manifold and tubes...
working on my end...here are the urls for them if you're still having trouble:

I personally would go with a 426. Camp Chef will limit you to propane and the 428 case is made from a much thinner gauge metal that is very prone to denting. The paint is also crap and rusts very easy....the newer 424, 414, and 428 were just made too cheaply as a result of cost cutting...
I think you'll need steeper peaks on those top cross air beams to keep the snow from accumulating on the roof...and all three will need to come to a center peak. This may even be needed for rain so it doesn't pool on top.
Nemo Equipment made some back pack tents with airbeam support structures. I have one of their GoGo tents. You see some slight (and I mean slight) loss in pressure going from say 60s down to 15-20s but it still holds its shape very well. With their's being a small backpack tent and with the...
Cool, sounds like you guys are on the right track for bridging to an outdoor market model. I think with the right rain fly design (to help round out the squareness) and proper staking points/guy outs you can get around the unit being viable in windy conditions. However as Darrell pointed out...
Some comments:
(1) you'll need some air vents to ensure no condensation build up and to allow for air flow.
(2) for outdoor use you may also want to include some type of fold back top with mesh/noseeum screen underneath for star gazing. this could also align with #1 if you design it right.
(3)...
