    I knew you would do an outstanding modification on that lid, my friend! -Dave

    Heh heh, this is clever. The amount of tinkering we do on our stuff! As fun as out camping with it! (Well, almost.) Jules

      Lol brother, you could not be more right about that. My favorite gear is either modified or self made

    I have one non Rothco canteen cup that the Rothco lid fits on as is!!!! Before anyone gasps aloud at this improbable event it fits so well that the posibility of getting the lid off again when the cup is hot without burning or scalding is about as improbable as the Rothco lid fitting any non Rothco canteen cup in the first place. Now I can't adjust my lid like yours or no one will believe this unlikely thing ever happened!

      Bahaha awesome comment. If I knew how to do it, I would make this comment always stay as the first one seen. Well played

    Definitely looks like a good modification to me my friend. Thanks for sharing.

    • @survivorjohnny44

      Thanks brother. The lids that are made to fit are $20 and I'm cheap so I got the $4 lid and modded it, lol

    Dang.... That was a simple solution. I've avoided buying that lid because I know it won't fit my cup. Might have to re-think that now!!!

    • @survivorjohnny44
      @survivorjohnny44  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks brother, it was easy to do too. I used a pair of 10" channel locks and just bent the lip outward to about a 45* angle. It took less than 5 minutes and they are so cheap it def worth it

      Thanks John. I tried to use the KISS rule

    • @TurtleBushcraft
      @TurtleBushcraft 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think it would hold on better than just flatting it out

  • @diddybushcraftnoutdoors8072
    @diddybushcraftnoutdoors8072 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I did mine like that at first and didn't like it so I decided to flatten it all the way.

    • @survivorjohnny44
      @survivorjohnny44  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's cool, I've seen people flatten them out all the way and it seemed to work very well. I do you have a vid using it that I could watch? I really like to see what everyone else is using

    • @diddybushcraftnoutdoors8072
      @diddybushcraftnoutdoors8072 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't have many videos but I have the one lid I modded and a Pathfinder canteen lid and I just bought 2 Heavy Cover Boil Lids. Maybe I'll make a video on them sometime.

    Do you have the aluminium cup? I do and I also have the same lid that doesn't fit. Looks like this will fix the issue without having to return it and find another. Thanks for the tip!

    • @survivorjohnny44
      @survivorjohnny44  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +AdventureCamping I think it's a gov issue steel cup but if you have the $4 lid it might be more trouble than it's worth to return it. I just took som big pliers and started widening the outer lip on the lid until it sort of fit. Thanks for watching

    • @survivorjohnny44
      @survivorjohnny44  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks brother and it's only 25% of the cost of the one that is supposed to fit it. Thanks for stopping by

    • @sosteve9113
      @sosteve9113 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      would it be a good idea to drill small hole's on one side,to use it as a strainer

    • @survivorjohnny44
      @survivorjohnny44  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, that is a very good idea. Thank you for posting it

    @JusBurninItDownSmothers 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    hey if you only have to tweak it a little and it works then that a win in my book

    • @survivorjohnny44
      @survivorjohnny44  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +JusBurninItDown Smothers concider ing the one that fits costs $20 and this one costs $4 it's a win in my book too, lol

  • @MITimberwookie
    @MITimberwookie 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Now it fit...sort of. Good enough for a few bucks anyhow.

    • @survivorjohnny44
      @survivorjohnny44  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +MI Timberwookie yes sir, good enough to stay on when your pulling it out of the fire and keep the ashes out while it's still in there. Thanks brother
