Hi Paul. I am a Serving Army Officer with 44 years Service behind me and have spent most of my spare time in the hills and mountains of the UK and overseas. I have watched your videos for many years and i would like to say a huge thank you for outstanding hints, tips, and amazing video footage of your trips. Take Care buddy, keep up the great videos!

[MuddyDuck...]

Thanks for this great news Paul 👍
As someone who just missed out on getting one of Norman's classic SNCs back in 2020 (for my Alpkit Mytipot 900) before he sadly passed away - it is great to see that another outdoor enthusiast has taken up the torch. Norman poured his heart into his products, and his clever design deserves to live on in a revised and modernised form. So good luck to these guys..!

Made a volcano clone using 8" aluminum flashing, works a treat. Flashing, scissors, sharp knife, leather punch for holes, scary efficient

The @PaulMessner effect - Kickstarter goal has been well exceeded! Well done @StripeyHatGuy, looking forward to it arriving.

Thanks Paul for your graft with these lovely videos, for supporting a sibling wild camper with his fab little business, for making it “ok” to be a normal bloke, for involving your missus, for making me smile, and for having a very natural gift for talking about your/our interest so watchably (if that’s even a word!). I even got my missus to watch one of your videos and told her “This is the bloke I watch” so she could better understand (or permit!😂) my hobby. I’ve pledged £85 for the full set too as after starting in alcohol stoves, then trying gas, I realised on my Hadrians Wall sea to sea (to Tynemouth, past Wallsend) that alcohol is my go to hands down. Bless your good and generous heart ❤️

I really miss these kit reviews, especially for smaller upcoming companies. U can tell ur passion through the video and that comes across so well.

[Lands_Solo]

I've just pledged, the Kickstarter has now smashed it over the line thanks to your vlog, it seems to have given it enough impetus to easily make the target.

[romac]

Love it, the best solutions are simple, totally deserves to be a success

[montylikesbeer]

I have three Stormin Norman cones and they are incredible. Norman was an incredibly nice and knowledgeable bloke, great to see the idea is returning

[adventuresonthebike]

Hi Paul, I bought the Stormin Norman cone back in 2019 after watching one of your videos. I have a fair few other stove systems but i always come back to the Stormin cone due to its simplicity and lightweight. Ive always felt lucky that i got one before Norman sadly passed away.
Im pleased to see that the Stripy Hat Guy has released his own version as this is a brilliant system to own. Thanks for the video Paul.

[joesmith]

Nice to see one of these start ups actually offering something useful. Hope he is successful.

[jameskyle]

Hi Paul, I’ve watched the Stripey hat guy for years now, he is hardcore. The cook system is a great wee bit of kit. Cheers James

[StripeyHatGuy]

Thank you very much Paul for brilliant video, will pay you later 😂😂😂 Glad you like it!

Thanks
Stripey

[philjones]

Best video for so many reasons Paul. I remember watching Stripeys video about getting it made, this hopefully is the kick start he needs and deserves, i for one will be buying one to help him. Thanks for sharing this 👍👍

[richardirmler]

I made one of these from 2 baked beans tins I found in the rubbish. Good on ya.

[Oldsparkey]

Reminds me of the Caldera Cone. Both are smart in the way they capture the heat and make a very efficient use of it. After a lot of decision making I went with the Evernew Titanium Appalachian set many years ago. It's 5.7 ounces and all solid, no folding or anything else but setting it up and cooking. .

[totomesch]

I've already put my money down for this I'm sure, fingers crossed, that they'll hit the target. It's a fantastic light-weight set, and as you've said Paul, should last for years if looked after. ATB

[paulthomas]

Pledged my dosh about 10 days ago, glad to hear its made the target now 👍👍. Just got to Puck you up slightly on one point. Trail Designs Caldera is very similar ( if not cheaper) so long as you use a reshipping service. Yes, granted, if you go for the Fissure Ti-tri, which is virtually identical to the Stormin cone, its a lit more, but a standard Caldera code is comparable on price. That said, I'm happy that we can buy UK made gear over US. Well done Stripey. Good effort 👍👍👍

[KenFernbach]

Like how simple yet effective it is- hope this becomes much more common in the backpacking community! Thanks for sharing! 🚴🏼‍♂️🌱🧘🏼🌿🙏

[scottdenton]

Had no idea about Norman. Pleased I picked up several stormin Norman cones back in 2018.
Good to see the idea returning.
