AS you see (Frank Schmidt) is looking for a source of
Titanium Fuel Bottles, of the design of the MSR Fuel Bottles.

See:

http://www.msrcorp.com/stoves/bottles.asp

The aluminum bottles are available at any local backpaking store, for
$10 to $15.

If anyone can provide an estimate or proposal to Frank Schmidt,
perhaps, you can solve his problem. Since there is a shortage of
supply, perhaps there is a market demand, for more titanium fuel
bottles, so you can sell them on Ebay.

What do you say? What'll it cost to spin them out on a lathe?
