MakingCalderaCone 0001

[MjrKrash]

2Q - great video, thanks for instructions. As we found out a few days ago, for pots 6" in diameter such as my older MSR Quick 1 we need 12" flashing and have a length of 30" Your instructions with the larger working material worked perfectly for my setup.

The roll of flashing 14"x25' was $28 and the bending tool was $12 here in Alaska @ Home Depot.

Excelent video. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

Theres a super volcano called yellowstone caldera which could kill half the united states.

A very well made tutorial. I have no doubt this can be made with titanium foil. I know titanium goat sells the foil. You may be able to find it cheaper elsewhere though. Nice Job.

Excellent Video! Thank you SO MUCH! Making one this weekend for sure.

[SeniorProperNoun]

First rate video. Thanks.

Just a heads up, this doesn't work wtih a pot bigger than 6" diameter. the foil is not tall enough. On the other hand it does leave a cool triangle hole about an inch high in the back. Maybe this will be a replacement for the intake holes.

You can easily cut the roof flashing with scissors. I'd recommend using the titanium coated type for longer wear however. Have fun with it! Harbor Freight sells a very inexpensive hole punch (different size hole selections) that works great for making the exhaust and intake holes.

Great video! I've been looking all over the place for a tutorial on how to make one of these. Will a simple box cutter knife cut the aluminum?

[MrBillTroop73]

Nicely done!

[pastorus]

Thanks so much for your great instruction. Mine works great. So does the one I made for my friend Kayakndbikehanger. I really appreciate your teaching style and willingness to share info!

Well done. Thanks

The Caldera cone traps so much heat that often the burner is now oversized! For my MSR Ti pot I use a small V-8 can alky burner....just right.

This video is EXCELLENT. My caldera cone melted, mostly because I put too many holes in the top edge. It lost its heat dissipation ability and the aluminum melted.

Great "HOW TO" video, I think even I could make one now, Thanks.

What is that metal bending tool you used for the edging?

[2Questions007]

Its called a folding tool, used in my HVAC. Get them from Amazon...Malco 8" folding tool

Man that is too awesome! I am a Trangia owner, but wanted to lighten up my system a little. I appreciate your video and I hope that I can make something that kewl too!

[deezynar]

Ditto! Awesome.  5/5

[jsc1961]

Excellent. You couldn't have done better. I was thinking about how to do this today and you saved me a lot of time and I'm sure flashing material. Thanks!

[cybertiberium]

again what they said....very nicely done and informational

[NCHiker1970]

Great information! Step by step instruction 5*

[bricardiff1969]

thank you for that..

[jefftroyer]

i love this design... it's the best i've seen thus far.. attaboy timmy!!!

[hiramcook]

Very informative vid. Thanks for sharing. Could you please explain the purpose of the two red lines that intersect the points that represent the diameter of your pot? I've watched your vid 3 times but I'm afraid I don't see the point of them. Thanks.

[2Questions007]

The red lines simply show the shape of the cone, either short and stout or long and slender. By moving the "common point" higher, the cone becomes more slender

[alchemist10101]

Wonderful!!!

[Gydrik]
