I recently bought a Brasslite Turbo II-D with extensions.

I haven't had a chance to use it in the field, however so far I'm quite happy with it. I like the solid construction and it seems to be efficient (at least in my back garden!). However, I need to use it a lot to get the most out of it. I'd like to ask some questions of other people who use these or similar stoves.
I'm using one of the 16oz alcohol dispenser bottles to put an oz of fuel in the stove and also into the 'priming' saucer at the bottom.

I find it quite awkward to do this from the dispenser without spillage! I'm thinking of maybe using a small, plastic measuring cup or similar. What do other people do?
Of course, when I do spill the fuel and then light the stove, the spilt fuel burns around the stove. This is not a problem in the open usually, however anything flammable underneath it obviously could be. Should I construct a small tin/brass tray to stand the stove in?
Thank you for the help.
