Hi Ralph I am looking at replacing my small pot with a new one, I had thought about titanium but remembered that they are not as good for cooking on but fine...
Andrew, It is a pot that I was talking about. You can get them from Mountain Designs or Main Peak. I did see them in Main Peak Cottesloe a few years ago. They...
