    Seriously Weird Things

    Here's a truly weird collection of items that I'll bet most people would never think of.
    A pack-away kettle? Folding coffee maker? They're all here - enjoy

    Do you want to be happy or do you want to be normal?

    Hi Happybonzo !
    Nothing wierd about a folding coffee filter holder , I use the ORTLIEB Kaffeefilter-Halter http://www.ortlieb.com/_pdf_en/coffeefilterholder.pdf
    Folds flat as a handful of filter papers , fits in a pocket easily and makes great coffee !!!







    Makes a nice strong brew and easy to clean , all the grouts stay in the filter which can be bagged for disposal and the holder can be simply rinsed or wiped clean.
    Not as pretty as your silicone one though hey !?!?!
    Cheers Whistle

    Not all collapsible/folding gear is ridiculous. I am quite fond of my Lifeventure Collapsible Fabric Bowl; http://www.lifeventure.co.uk/htm/coo...ible-bowl.html

    Though not really aimed at our kind of outdoor activities, I actually find a lot of the items from Wacky Practicals quite interesting. They look like they are actually functual. If the collapsible funnel was half the size and weight, I would seriously consider getting one to pack with my white gas and multi-fuel stoves.

    Looks really good. Shame I've totally stopped drinking coffee and tea.

    You could always use it with dehydrated water to make a nice cup of hot water to enjoy.

    At one beer-addled camp, a couple of us tried to design a collapsible metal cooking pot. Unfortunately, none of us are designers!!
