[philmont] Troop equipment needs

All, I know this is off topic of Philmont, so I apologize in advance, but I am in need of some assistance...

=================

Our troop right now has the good fortune that we are growing. We are in fact have 2 crews going to Philmont next summer (6-26)... Woo Hoo!!!

I the past 2 years, I we have gone from 1-1/2 patrols (6-8 scouts each) to now 4 and approaching 5. We currently have 3 complete patrol boxes, and now need to make a 4th (and maybe a 5th come Cross-Over time).

We also have a few storage bins (big plastic garbage cans) full of old unused patrol cook kit equipment. I recently went through all those items in an attempt to
assemble two complete cook kits. No luck :(

So, my question is this, does anyone have a stash of unused patrol cook kit parts that would be willing to part with (sell or donate)?

Our troop equipment is made up of the aluminum stuff. Here are 2 links to what I'm talking about.

I can get a specific list of what we need. Off the top of my head I can think of the following:
   Nylon utensil Chef's Tool Kit holders (those green fold-over/roll-up things)
    Two quart pot tops
    Four quart pot tops
    Cast iron (or similar) griddles
    Aluminum dutch oven pliers (they have the little hook on 'em too)
    Hard plastic cutting boards
    Wash tubs
    
Yes, I know I could go buy most of this stuff new, but we're just trying to save $$ in the troop treasury. I did call www.scoutstuff.org and they will not just sell parts.

So, please email me if you can help or have other suggestions.
