Does anyone know if the 475ml trapper mug cone can be modified to accommodate a SnoPeak 450 mug with handles? Is the opening the same size (at the top)? I'd like to be able to use both. The SnoPeak ti mug is significantly more solid than the trapper mug (just heavier).

The biggest issue isn't going to be the diameter (which I believe is about the same on both mugs)…..the biggest issue will be the lack of a lip on the trapper. Since the trapper has about the width of a hair to support the mug from on top of the cone, we had to make the top opening of the trapper a complete connection all the way around…..with no handle cut out. If you cut a handle slot for the 450, the top of the resulting cone will flex too much to hold the trapper up by its minuscule lip.
Now, just coincidentally, the new monster Beer Band we had made for the Caldera Keg happen to be the right size to fit over the Trapper. Putting one of these on the Trapper would provide enough "lip" for the cone to sit on.
