What is the best way ... “I will be flying in a week and can't take my stove on the plane so I will use a pepsi can stove. After arriving, I plan on a stop at Home Depot for denatured alcohol, but don't really want to carry the metal can with me. Any suggestions?” 4:02:03 PM 3/07/02 “Try a used plastic soda bottle.” 4:04:04 PM 3/07/02 Duh! “I guess that the obvious escaped me!” 4:14:51 PM 3/07/02 Day Taste Bedder Mixed Togedder “Sounds like yer making a mixed drink. Hic!” 4:19:09 PM 3/07/02 “drink or dump out have the pepsi, dump in the alcohol. enjoy” 4:36:32 PM 3/07/02 “Real Cuban rum in a nalgene bottle. Oh wait, that's not quite what you meant. Nevermind.” 4:49:56 PM 3/07/02 “Any confusion in this area can lead to some very poor eyesight.” 4:51:48 PM 3/07/02 “...or death.” 4:53:43 PM 3/07/02 “I like the soda bottle idea, sounds good l8ter all” 5:02:46 PM 3/07/02 “I use an empty nail polish remover bottle. Is flat so it fits in an outside pocket easy, and doesn't leak.” 5:10:09 PM 3/07/02 “....and there's no risk you'll drink from it by mistake...” 5:14:45 PM 3/07/02 well if you were fashion conscious... “Pepsi can stove, pepsi bottle fuel bottle.... how very Brittany” 5:19:01 PM 3/07/02 “They make a flask for booze that is flat and about the right size ,also the cap would be good for measuring. Campmore's got em.” 5:32:04 PM 3/07/02 “buy Everclear - then it does not matter if you drink it - other than you might not have any left to cook with that is” 5:51:22 PM 3/07/02 “Exactly Hog...you nailed my sentiment....Hydrogen Peroxide bottles work the best...they are better built and the caps stay tighter..Skip home depot..go to Walmart you can get both there...” 7:19:32 PM 3/07/02 “everclear, the multi purpose fuel...... by the way, life is good in Tampa” 7:35:24 PM 3/07/02 “If you put non-ethyl alcohol in a beverage container, please label it appropriately. You don't want you or your friends to visit the Pathman.” 7:40:28 PM 3/07/02 “If I clicked on this thread, you know I was thinking about something totally unrelated to the subject presented. :)” 10:37:18 PM 3/07/02 “Me too, Buddha” 12:13:35 AM 3/08/02 “Me too..at my first thought was that he was gonna sneal some likka into a ball game or the movies..hehe...” 12:32:40 AM 3/08/02 “The TinCanStoveMan said isopropyl alcohol dry gas that you get for your car's gas tank is the best fuel. They already come in a plastic bottle. It may leak though - I haven't had a chance to try it out yet.” 9:08:38 AM 3/08/02 “Sauron packed it that way at Savage Gulf. Worked just fine - no leaks.” 9:17:57 AM 3/08/02 “I use a little 9 oz./0.3 liter SIGG fuel bottle for weekend trips. I find that liquids don't pour very well out of fuel bottles so I bought one of those REI Super Pour Spouts to save any fuel that might get lost from dribbling.” 5:41:09 AM 3/09/02 “Trangia makes a plastic alcohol fuel bottle with a pour spout in half liter and liter sizes. Sturdy and doesn't leak.” 8:54:37 AM 3/09/02 “I use an 8 ounce nalgene bottle for weekend trips. You can tighten them without fear of breaking them and they seal nicely. I've had bad experience with other recycled bottles not necessarily made to handle temperature extremes or repeated use. The caps don't seal or even crack in cold weather when tightened. Maybe I over tighten them but it was hard to tell my hands were cold also! I recall seeing Steve Hiker carring the can.” 4:43:42 PM 3/11/02
