In my mind's eye, I picture a portable box which contains a gimballed, stock two-burner propane camp-stove (Coleman?). I guess the inspiration would be a portable antique compass. I'm not exactly sure how I'd mount the stove inside the box, but I think I could study my gimballed oil lamp and figure something out. My biggest concern: I think the two-burner propane Coleman uses a fixed copper pipe for the propane bottle attachment and I would have to replace that pipe with a flexible hose fed through a slot in the box, so that the stove could move independent of its propane source. I could use this portable gimballed two-burner propane box-stove (the HONSHELL2000?) inside, on a settee, or outside, on a cockpit bench. Besides the propane hose, can anyone suggest complications I haven't considered? I'm picturing something fairly bulky. Where will it be stowed when not in use?
