NOTICE: Getting a lot of non Beckerhead entries. This contest is for Beckerheads only! And please make sure your BH number is visible in the post, or your sig. Also, if you're not interested in the prize, please don't post. Thanks
Have been wanting to give a prize away, and here it is. A brand new, unissued Swedish mess kit, complete.
As you can see behind the kit, is the bag I took it out of:
The burner is tarnished from storage, but unissued none the less:
Alcohol bottle. Translated is:
Rödsprit= wood alcohol with red colour added to avoid people to drink it (metylated spirit).
Mycket brandfarlig = very inflammable.
Giftig= Toxic
Stove. Some scratches, but they were shipped to me stacked, so to be expected:
The kit itself:
Genuine Swedish issue:
For those not familiar with these kits, pour some alcohol (I personally use denatured alcohol) in the burner, light it, set the stove over top of it, with the arms in the raised position:
And either set the lid of the kit in it:
Or the base for boiling water:
The handle of the lid has rings attached you can flip up, to run a stick through, as to not burn your hands:
Bottle and burner fit in the base:
And it all fits inside the stove:
Contest Rules: Simple, just post anything, and after it's over, I will put the post counts, between 2 and the ending post number, into Random.org, and generate a number. That post number wins. Only post once please, and obviously no chatting in this thread. Multiple posters will be disqualified. Beckerheads only please. Please have your BH number displayed. You will still qualify if you're a Beckerhead before the end of the contest. Contest will end midnight, CST, July 11th, 2 weeks from today. Good luck!
