Stove gimbals - maximum swing

In rough weather, I make drinks by putting the mugs in a big pan, held in the pan clamps of the hob. It allows a decent quantity to be poured since the mugs remain upright, and, if one goes over, catches the spill.
 
I've done the cardboard template thing today. There's only 30mm difference between allowing a 20 deg or free swing. Hopefully I should have this all sorted pretty soon now.

Curious how you're making out. I stumbled upon this thread while seeking a solution to the identical problem. I'm mentally fabricating a re-invention to the wheel. In my case, I already have a full-sized gimbaled stove in the boat. However it is mounted athwartship, meaning it gimbals fore/aft. Which is just fine at anchor, perhaps even preferable. Underway is another matter. So for overnight races, the idea is to temporarily mount a correctly gimbaled, single burner Gasone stove atop the grill of the first one. Maybe let them both gimbal. We'll use a pressure cooker most of the time.

My thinking is to bolt the Gasone unit to an Aztek board tray; place a counter-balancing weight below it. But I still need to design everything else for the metal fabricator. I'm curious if you've worked out the optimal height for the stands and for the gimbaled tray, the height between the base and pivot point to safely achieve a 30-40 degree heel?
