    I need a new compass....what do you guys use?

    http://www.kasper-richter.de/en/products/mirror_compass/lumo_tec-2/ Been good so far, but dont let them fool you, they can get a bubble just like the rest. But a maybe 20 year old Brunton 9020 is what is in my pouch more often than not. I think I paid $15 for it.

    Crocs?

    Friends dont let friends wear crocs. But just in case you feel an urge to have them, never ever get a pair of crocs too close to the camp fire. Like say you were going to nudge a log over but maybe the rum and coke was stronger than you thought so you like accidently stepped in the fire. It's...

    I suspect that the opening in the burners is larger than the diameter of the tube feeding it so there is no pressure build up. But it may pull liquid out on a heavy burn of a 1 pound can. I run mine on a adapter for a 20 pound bottle. Theres not really an inherent danger with pressure on propane...

    No part numbers, picked it up from academy sporting goods probably 15 years ago. There was a discussion at one time on the Coleman collectors forum. The only real advantage I have found is in running 2 or 3 burners at the same time

    Your converting a liquid fuel stove, propane operates no differently than liquid fuel once it leaves the bottle. The constriction of the small tube coming off the bottle and the valve keep the flow down but you can ice up a bottle with it. If you are worried about it, then buy the regulated...

    coolers what would you design ?

    I'm guessing design constraints play a large part, depending on whether they are an injection mold, blow mold or rotomold? Possibly how the shell is assembled to the inner box. With the cost of manufacture of the mold itself, nothing is done arbitrarily.

    They work fine, there are two kinds, regulated and unregulated. Both work, unregulated puts out a lot more heat, but I have never had an issue with the regulated ones.

    If you search around and find an unregulated propane adapter for a Coleman fuel stove you can get 2 foot of flame off of the burner. You can get enough heat to turn the grate red and warp it.

    Rebuilding Old Coleman Stoves

    Just a note on the propane adapters, I keep a Coleman 413 from the early 60's in the camper, I keep the original fuel tank as well as a 1# adapter and a bulk tank adapter in the stove. That way I have covered any fuel available. There are two kinds of 1 pound propane adapters, regulated and non...
