Since Rex’s “old gear” thread has some interest, thought I share this.

My favorite canister stove for the past 35+ years has been the Gaz Globe Trotter with the included pots.

Alas, the canisters were discontinued years ago. Undaunted, I bought a Coleman Peak 1 canister stove and used parts from it to modernize my Globe Trotter to use modern canisters. I have two Globe Trotters. I will update the second one when I run out of the old canisters.


Left is the modernized stove.

I started with the globetrotter in 1975. While I admire your ingenuity and tenacity, I’d have chucked it in the trash! But well done!

Nick,  I’m in the process of converting my Markill Stormy. Just got it out after all these years.
