Wow that’s a surprise…. They’ve been sporadically sending out backordered items to suppliers lately but I wouldn’t have expected the Baja Burner to pop up. I finally got a chance to buy a Flat Burner when Expedition Exchange got a couple in stock last week (supposed to show up today along with a My Table!) I’ve learned to jump on a rare opportunity when they come up so if you have wanted a Baja Burner here’s a rare chance.

Thank you for the heads up! Just starting to build my Snow Peak collection, and I had completely lost hope!

Yes, this is very bad,.......but in a good way
Does anyone know when they changed the Dutch Oven26 handles? I just received a new one and the two wire handles are curved without the notch for stable hanging that I had seen. Are these new design handles balancing well for everyone?
I was expecting them to still have this shape for hanging:
Thanks!

Something I wish was still around, CK-121 IGT Cast Iron Trivet.
This was originally designed as part of the WG/GP integration system for the IGT in 2003. Your backpacking stove went underneath, and the gave you a sturdy cooking surface for heavier items. It was discontinued around 2007/2008 along with the whole system as by that point there were a few IGT specific stoves in the product line.
But today, I'd love to see this reintroduced. Personally if I bring the IGT out, I likely am bringing cast iron to cook on. And when I'm done with a pan but still need the burner the only option is to set it down. If the grass is dry this can pose a huge fire risk, and having a trivet space like this would be a great place to let things cool for a bit.
There is a guy in Japan who redesigned this and produces them regularly, but despite my best efforts I can't get him to ship anything to the states.

Can confirm the new style cut out micro-notch works ok - for the SP tripod setup hook anyway.
That is a nice looking item. Can you post a better picture? Maybe without the pot on it? I have an idea on how to possibly make something similar, but I can't see the details well enough.
Edit: Just looked it up online. Makes sense now. Out of curiosity is there any functionality to the layout that is important other than being able to set hot items on it? Does the placement of the bars matter?

I think it depends on the end use. If you're making something to place hot items on, no the bars aren't important. But since this was also intended to be used as a grill top for stove that could be positioned 10 different ways, it likely came in to play originally.
I saw one over the weekend when you posted that may still be avail (and is ok for global shipping). Interesting arrangement that I don't remember seeing back in the day: https://jp.mercari.com/search?keyword=スノーピーク 鋳鉄五徳
Also interesting it fits on the pack and carry bridge

For no reason at all today I decided I needed to make a new carry case for my new MyTable. Originally I made a brown canvas one but seen the Velcro strap too short so on my redemption attempt I decided to kick it up a notch With some hunter green canvas lined with brown canvas and rustic oil tan leather binder, handle and straps. It matches my Kermit chair now (happy accident)I’ve been planning on making a bunch of 1 unit canvas bags to store my IGT inserts, I think I might stick with this hunter green and brown style….

That is nice work there
Nice and overstated in true SP style
Do you have a sewing machine that can handle these materials or is this 'honest handwork'?

While I have gone back to hand stitching things lately, I used a sewing machine for this. I have a couple of machines i use for leather and a couple for canvas.
