I have put my BAL in the bag and it works great. Now I have those other small bags to deal with.

I bet you can find some use for them. :)   Organize stuff in the PU, carry stuff to the PU, etc.

We got ours too.  Fits great....again, we don't know what to do with all the other little bags......But for the price, if they sit in the garage, that's ok too.  I am sure we will figure it out.  There is always something that needs it's own bag.

Just what I need, more "stuff" to take. I'm sure I'll find a use for them, but I definitely don't need to take more things. I usually have a real full Explorer and i have the Volcano for my DO's in the doorway of the popup also.

I was just looking over the other small  bags that came along with the larger one I wanted for the BAL and happened to think that maybe one or more of them would work out great to  carry items in and attach to my belt while biking or hiking. Could easily fit a bottle of water or soda in one with a rain poncho and maybe a few first aid items. Maybe I will find a use for some of them yet.

I just got the canvas bag from Cheaper than dirt. somehow it doesn't seem big enough to hold the BAL. I haven't had a chance to see. do you think there were two different sizes? I ordered the # listed.

I had to turn my BAL until I found it would go in easy in only one direction.

A couple of trips ago I put it in the bag the wrong way. It was a bugger to get it in. The last time I turned it 90 degrees and lo and behold it went in easy.

I ordered 2 bag sets, one for me and one for my sister.  The large bag is way too small to hold the BAL.  We have tried it many angles, and it just won't fit.  The bags I received actually look smaller than the picture in the catalog.  Oh well, it was worth a try.  I'm only out a few dollars and now I have some interesting little bags for other camping stuff!

Sounds great!  I'm going to order one ....

To keep the grease from getting all over every thing, I slip
a piece of foam pipe insulation over the threads and it doesn't fall
off easily like PVC pipe.

This protects the threads and keeps grease contained and I just make sure there is not a big glob hanging out of the cup...Works great and
I bought a 4 foot piece for $0.99. When one gets messy I just cut off
a new one.

rccs,
  I have recently ordered the item in your thread and when I received it I found out very fast they did not send the same item you got. Yes, all the information was the same as is shown in the web page. Good news, I found a bag in the sporting goods department of Wal-Mart that will nicely do the trick. It runs about eight dollars and is made by California Innovations. Why in the sporting goods area I do not know. It is called a Freezer Tote with a zipper. Looks great and comes in all different colors. I got black.  Hope this will help anyone out there in need.......
rccs,
 



 
 
 
 
Quote from: rccsFor those of you who have the BAL leveler and are looking for a reasonable price bag to store it in, check out the Cheaper Than Dirt website at www.cheaperthandirt.com . Item number LOW-536 , the Bulgarian Web Set for $6.97. I bought one from a sale catalog they sent me, in which it was only $5.97, because by the description in the catalog it looked like it would fit. Well it fits just about perfectly. The bags are made of fairly heavy canvas and look pretty sturdy. I am planning to sew some velcro onto the flap to close it instead of using the straps that it comes with. The set has the large bag which fits the leveler and five other assorted size bags, a belt and shoulder straps for it. Great deal for the money if you can use it.
