4-3/4 oz Ultra-light Backpacking Kitchen (video demo)

Step 9 Pack it all up

Now that all the pieces are made you can pack it up and head out on the trail.

I would like to mention a couple things about the use of this kit.
1. I do not eat out of the boiling pot, because it is a pain to clean.
2. I am careful not to let it boil dry. the coating on the inside of the can is strong but if there is no water in the pot the coating will start to bubble.
3. I only boil water in the pot to rehydrate meals, I do not actually cook in it, again because of cleaning.
4. the case is definitely a multitasker, The 2 cup container has 1 and 2 cup increments on the side, so you can measure water, you can use both containers as bowls, the list goes on...
5. If I want a hot drink I take off my "LiveStrong" style silicon bracelet and use it as a lip guard.

I already have a stove for my son, but we haven't had time to sit down & design a container for it. This idea fits the bill perfectly. It was very easy to make and very functional. I tested the container for leaks, and it was waterproof BEFORE I siliconed the ring.... I love the idea of having a couple containers for bowls as well. Thanks for a great idea.
