Looks interesting, but a bit pricey for my Scotch blood.
I'd bet a clever fellow could improvise with materials found around the barn and devise a workable approximation. 73 de KE4SKY In "Almost Heaven" West Virginia USA

Trangia is my favorite in the GHB. Years ago I used a Svea 123 with the auxilary pump or the similar Primus, but both of those found other homes over the years. My USGI quart canteens are all stowed in their covers with cup, Natick stand and mess kit spoon, with lifeboat matches and Aqua-Pur tabs i the external pouch.

Very pricey. If you don't need the portability you could buy three grills for the same price.

The standard is $50 U.S. at most outlets. The Coleman Expedition actually has several features going for it. First, it will burn about any fuel you can pour into it. It does burn sooty when using diesel, everything else is fairly clean. Second, it is not as finicky to start as many backpack stoves. Pump it up, turn the lever and lite the gas, let it flame a second then turn it down. Third, the fuel tank holds enough fuel to cook 6-9 meals, which means one tank will last a whole three day weekend. It will also boil your cup'a in about one minute. We have lots of places where there is access to wilderness but restrictions on building fires. A wood burning grill or even a wood burning stove is not allowed. For the backpacker the Coleman Expedition is about as close to using the kitchen "hob" as it gets in the outdoors.
