I made several stoves similar to this one, and used one on the AT for a while. google 'photon stove', iirc. There is a guy who makes a similar stove out of copper and silver solder. More durable but still lite weight. Ultralite backpackers are heavy into this stuff. BTW, my heaviest tent is 4 lbs. The lightest 39 ozs., a Six Moon Design. On the AT I was able to cut my pack wt. from 40 lbs. with 7 days food, down to 32 lbs. Many ultralighters carry 25 lbs. or less, but only carry 3-4 days food.
