And I think def it is! The cup can still be used as intended, but if a 3rd or 4th cup is needed, at least it’s an option! :) but yes one would have to sacrifice the double walled insulation when using the additional cups

Plus you can only boil enough water for 2 cups at a time, if I was expected to supply hot drinks and food for 4 people I’d take a bigger set, it’s a clever trick don’t get me wrong but I think using it a few times you will realise you’ve ruined 2 good cups for 4 cups that cool really quick

Some of you are missing the point here... Its not a 4 cup set if you dont want it. Do one and get 3 cups. OR, what I see, you get 2 cups in the space that one took before. Still a 2 cup set, with a Lot more space available. Also, the minute thickness difference in them really shouldn't lose much insulation... not much there to start. Personally I'd have to find those cups to do the mod... They were so bulky I never ever used them ever once, took them out and threw them into storage somewhere... There are several GSI mugs that nest beautifully, just clip the loop handles off.

For those that add the Ozark Trail SS Cup on the bottom, here's a tip: Obtain a thin cozy, like the promotional give-away ones. Put it on the Stanley cup, then slide on the Ozark cup. It will fit snug enough to not slip/fall off. This is easier to use than a band, eliminates jangling, and keeps soot/dirt on the bottom of the Stanley from getting into the Ozark.

It's not the double wall, it's the sealed space that it creates. Like double pane windows. Heat/cold has trouble moving through dead air. In the old days they were even vacuum sealed, not sure if it made a difference.

I wish you would have told us where that lid comes from. Easier than trying to backtrack through your videos. For a more exact cut, I think that screwing a utility knife blade to a wood spacer the correct hight and rotating the cup would give a cleaner cut with less fuss to deal with after separating it into two. A very neat hack for sure.

What great hacks! I got your joke about the hacksaw hack! . Usually I just use the green cups for a planters at home or office and use disposable paper cofee cups in the Stanley cook set....saves weight and .use two if the liquid is gonna be real hot. Always rinse out the used cup.. and get 3 to 5 uses each.and then it becomes fuel for the next fire or use it as the outside cup for heat. . carry about 5 or 6 cups. Also for really messy meals, I dont feel the need to clean.. Love your show! Keep it up!

I must say you're pretty ingenious to have solved that issue with the Stanley cups. I cut one of mine apart like you showed and it made two cups so I put it in my Stanley camping equipment. I used the other one for watering my dog. I haven't cut it apart yet but I might later on. That was the best hack I've seen so far. And what I do is I put my MSR burner inside with the two cups cut apart along with a lighter and I add a washcloth on top and pack it down. Put the lid on and insert it inside a koozie or what "Shug" (Sean Emery) calls a "Cozy!"
