Hey guys and girls, just wanted to share my most recent project. I really like the Snow Peak GigaPower Auto stove, but I have wanted a lighter windscreen than the one Snow Peak sells. I ended up buying a Toaks Light 700ml pot and cutting it down to make a new windscreen. So basically, I spent $40 on a ti pot and cut it up to save a little more than one ounce on a windscreen. Yes, I know this is a little crazy, but I have fun doing these types of projects. This was my first time working with titanium, its pretty tough. Overall it came out good, if I made another I could make it a little cleaner. I also made the new windscreen a little taller to help shield the wind better. Just wanted to share.
