If you don't own one perhaps you can borrow one from someone. We actually found ours at a yard sale. A friend of ours went out and bought hers specifically for this purpose after seeing me use mine. My extra large canning pot doesn't fit on it so I just use the pot that came with it after cleaning it really well. Ann in TN
