You can also put pure carbon fiber felt into the Trangia stove making a kind of wick so it also holds your fuel into the stove a little better. On mine it slows the burn time of the denatured alcohol with the same amount of heat output as usual. Rubbing alcohol (70-91%) will give off fumes that you can smell when using the stove. I know this because of my indoors testing with the Trangia for heating water. It also causes more soot on your pots than the denatured or high grade alcohols. Not sure of your location, I'm in the USA, but high grade vodka (100-150 proof) or Everclear (200 proof) will work in a pinch, but you can't use anything flavored, with sugar, or tinted. For the weight and bulk of the table you could almost use a Trangia 27 base and shield. It makes a very stable base and is approved for burn ban areas in many locations. Get a Trangia bottle too. They make pouring easy and you don't have to worry about splashing or spilling any when fueling. You won't have the flaring you have shown here on lighting the stove. Take Care and Stay Safe.
I don’t know about Iceland, but in mainland Europe I’ve rarely seen a big bottle of isopropyl alcohol at a grocery store or even a pharmacy. You’re more likely to find methylated spirits or bio-ethanol at a hardware store or sporting goods/camping supply store, which can be decanted into an MSR-style fuel bottle for safer transport and more accurate pouring.
If I were you, I’d just take the Trangia with a small pot stand and the windscreen; the Nano and table are pretty bulky for what you’re using them for, and the can stove is just redundant.

Very nice, enjoy your trip
I will stick with my Trangia set up. Its worked for me, for years.
Sounds good

I agree. Thanks for the comment. Carbon felt works great

@ wow I didn’t realize they don’t have it. I’ll have to look further into this. Thanks

I wonder how a propane/butane burner with a long hose would work for this stove?
@@melissahoffman4687 I like the firebox scout. It’s half as wide as the Trangia Storm Cooker at 4” wide
That was a zinc not copper penny, lol
