Has anyone figured out a way to modify the lid of a Toaks Titanium 1600ml, to somewhat "snap" in place? I just picked up the set and am debating on using a metal punch to make a couple small dimples around the pans rim to help it stay put, when not using the carry/cinch bag.

Large rubber band.

Only problem w/ that is it will eventually break. I know, rubber bands are cheap and replaceable, but w/ my luck, it'd break at the most inopportune time. My Snowpeak pot set has the dimples and it stays closed keeping my beer can stove inside.

A rounded, 1/8" metal punch will work. Do 4 places, 1/4 way round the lid. Make the dimples shallow until you get the "feel of the punch"

Better yet, use an eyelet setting tool

I have the same pot I like it cause my wisperlite fits inside it. I put the cover on upside down currently. This makes it even better! Time to hit the garage... thank you for this great idea.
