I would like to find a good source for doing large sizes for shelters, pack gear, etc. Thanks, Rick - ---------------------- hist_text list info: http://www.xmission.com/~drudy/mtman/maillist.html ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 26 Feb 2002 15:21:32 -0800 (PST) From: George Noe Subject: MtMan-List: "BEVER FEVOR" Ho the camp !

Recently, after being chided for the unpteenth time for using a spatterware tapered coffee pot, I finally bought a (expensive) corn boiler just to shut up the critics. Now I hear that it is an unknown item for anything pre-Civil War. So what would be correct for making coffee in a pre-1840 camp? In the meantime I'm going to continue using my tapered coffe pot until someone shoots it. Or me. Frank G.

I been working up a load for my .62 that I think will do the job. BTW, if your following the discussion on the other list you will see that it is not as cut and dried that they are not appropriate (straight sided) as initial comments would dictate. YMOS Capt.
