yes they are great if properly treated from new - and ones knows how to look after them - but sadly many dont - been to a lot of huts and there is a cast iron camp oven been left there but sadly rusted so badly cant be used - we always had aluminium camp ovens when I worked in the bush - much easier to look after - so Black Rabbit be good if you could tell us how you treat a new cast iron camp oven and how do you fix a rusted one ??
