Good question. At first I didn't even see it and later looked myself. There is a small metal tube that runs inside one of the black (U shaped) hinges. It's well protected.

Yes, with a cord you can get on Amazon that converts a standard propane tank connector to the smaller 1# tank hookup.

I have the 11# tank, and a cord to hook it up to my Jetboil. Great size for the tank as it's on the tongue of my trailer. Powertank sells a really nice mount for it (made in the USA), btw.

So in another thread I had read about Helinox chairs, including the larger Sunset model that includes a taller backrest/headrest. I had stopped by a local REI who had the regular model on display that has no full backrest, but none to buy and none of the larger Sunset models. For the regular...

I love this picture! What a great setup. This encourages me to go check out Land Between the Lakes for similar camping.

On occasion at work I source stuff out… Most recently a bid came back that two of the product's important features could not be manufactured in the USA, but yes in China. Plus the USA made product without those two features would cost the same as in China with the two features. Secondly...

Did you actually think it was not made in China?

Looks good! Yes, the plate is huge! Not sure why it's built so big, guess for those big Australian trailers? It would have been nice if they had included shorter rails on the other side for the bolts.

Thought I'd update this thread... I recently bought and today installed the XO Jockey Wheel. It's solid!

Wow! Would be cool to restore that... Very unique. Must have been something else when new. Great project and thanks for sharing.

^The former train bridge in Russia looks insane! One slip... "Oops!"

Indeed it's great that more craft beers are in cans for all the reasons you said. Not to mention in 16 oz.! Plus, cans can later be burned in a camp fire. Oh wait... they don't! (Just a rant... That's what some other people seem to think as I've had to pick out cans out of fire pits before!)

That is awesome! Now that's my next trailer mod!

The previous thermorests that I had were 2" and yes I as well felt my hips on the ground. I honestly don't with these (at 185 lbs.), which I think is because of the individual cells. Sure, 3-1/2" would be better... As said I'm putting these on top of the pad in my Tepui. These would also do well...

Well you get what you pay for. The Coleman Fold N Go with just the stove and bag is about half the price. This throws in the two awesome pots into the same packaging and corrects the issues that the Coleman has. It's a great setup and will last for years so I'm happy with spending the money on it.

Lol... Honestly at first I didn't even notice the windscreens in the bag as they kind of look like just support for the bag. As said, with the Coleman I would just block the wind with something large when wind was an issue.

Used it! And it SIMMERS! I picked up a propane bottle today. So I wanted to see how quickly the large pot boils water? This is in no way scientific, but the relative conditions: 45 degrees out 10 cups of tap water (pot was about half full) Water at 61 degrees (I used an electric meat...

Well my Exped Syncellmat 5 pads arrived which I reviewed them in another tread but I thought I'd add pics to this thread with my comments above. I think that these are going to do well at replacing the gel topper. They have a quilt like top with individual air pockets, they really do a nice job...

Exped Syncellmat 5 I thought I'd add the Exped Syncellmat 5 pad to this thread. I have a Tepui Ayer RTT and the stock pad it comes with is okay, but for added comfort, I added a 1-1/2" gel topper to it. It's super conformable, however when I close up the RTT, the gel topper has to come out...

I as well added a pad, which I found a 1-1/2" gel pad and put it in a thin double-sized sleeping bag that fit it perfectly. It took some time to locate, but yes it made it great to sleep on! However I can't leave it inside my Tepui Ayer when I close it up (just two sleeping bags and two small...
