Anybody have or seen the little water heater - Kelly Kettle
It looks to me, like something any camper/kamper should have, lite weight, compact and uses sticks, cardboard, paper - almost anything as fuel source for boiling water, heating other liquids.
I contacted them to see if they had any options on something that could be used as a tiny wood stove or water heater for camper/camping use... but no such luck, yet.

I didn't see that earlier. This is such a neat idea for a couple of folks on the road. Make the water for coffee and cook the hotdogs.

the last time I lit a fire in an aluminum appliance, I melted the poor thing down.
I wonder why that aluminum doesn't melt. Must be a different alloy.

this one is vented and has water in it.
Remember that small grill you wanted
This is a bit expensive but I think for Christmas I might get one------if I can remember.

You remember that, do you?
I did have one built locally out of steel. It doesn't melt like the aluminum one does... but you should see it now. It sure is rusty.
Here's how it looked brand new...

Yep ya just need some high temp paint. Cute though. I noticed that my coal starter got really hot on top.

I was thinking about picking up a small toolbox grill to use in the teardrop, but after thinking about it, we prefer charcoal. Especially when we are on teardrop time.
We use a little baby barrel grill, and I think we'll stick with that.
This is the best picture I could find on such short notice...

I'd like to get my hands on a welder and some pipe.
Make one for the tongue. That one would do too.
