I purchased a couple of those from CC among other things for prizes to give away at a rendezvous. I was disappointed with the light weight construction and overall quality. Not the first disappointment I've had with CC goods. I'm the thrifty type but I've learned the hard way that sometimes I get exactly what I've paid for.

Woods Dweller: Hope you are happy with your cup. Hate to see a feller's parade get rained on ...

I have seen several metal products from CC i am not impressed, you get what you pay for, they are not durable at all, and will likley have broken and leaking seams when you get it. I would buy the ones from Jas Townsend, i have been using mine from them for 20 years, they dont have a lid so i made my own.

I have one from Backwoods tin. Mine is a copper mug with a top. The neat thing about it, is that it is insulated. It is two layers with an insulation between. Keeps them drinks cool.

He has both insulated and not. http://www.backwoodstin.com/

Beware of Townsend's cups now too. Their catalog mentions that they seal the seams with plastic. Not something you want to heat by the fire. When buying tinware, the best recommendation that I can make is buy items that specifically state that they have soldered joints and hot dipped tinning. Many ventors are selling some real thin tinplate stuff that just doesn't hold up well.

I have used(abused) the SS Mucket for several years
now, very tough. They claim their Tinware is
hot-dipped.

How did you like the cup ? Was thinging of getting one myself :hmm:

Do yourself a favor. Alls anyone needs is a good camp kettle[sheetiron not cast] and one of those $1 or $2 dollor tin cups. You know the small ones. Everything else is dead weight. Oh and watch out when drinking hot coffee or tea from them. Don't ask how I know.

I like the cup; I have a big cup just like it that I have used for years. I have cooked coffee, stew, soups, and just boil water in it. I like this one because it has a lid and this will keep ash and bugs out of the pot, and it will allow the boiling time to be quicker. :v
