BTW, this stove has an ingenious mechanism for holding pots when the
stove tilts. Whenever I see something like that, I am in awe of the
person who could conceive of it. That is one mechanism I will keep in
mind for future reference. This simple mechanism has a slide around
the outside of a cylinder. When it slides, it causes three holders to
move in or out to hold onto various size pots.
I have been looking for a way to make a simple square iris (for my
various optical systems) and one mechanism I thought of was patented
while I dithered (by an aquaintance of mine at that). So I have been
looking for an alternative arrangement and something based on this
gadget would work well.
