Hi guys
Looking for a permanent fireplace to put in the hut.
Ideally looking for something similar to what's in the did guys that you can chuck a pot on and do a bit of cooking but still want it to be able to take a reasonable side log and be damped down and burn for most of the night.
Was looking at sooner of the small portable aluminum type models but thinking maybe the firebird would be too small and wind burn for the night.
Cheers for any recommendations
It depends on the hut size.Quote:

Which can be cut off and replaced but you would want a DOC sized hut for that.
Also FB market place usually has a few worth looking at, finding one small enough is the problem.

I recently bought one of these, including the water boiler attachment:

It is designed to be a portable camp stove, but could be set up permanently. I haven't used it yet so can't comment on how well it works.
The permanent fires with a two level top seem to work well (there was one in the hut I was at a week ago, and I think Tahr has one in his hut? Nope, his is different), but might be too warm in a small hut, though maybe they have different sizes.
We have used a wagener sparky in a hut and a bach. Quite efficient but they are more of a chippie type heater so no big logs for an overnight burn (can take coal though).
Mate had an adventure king one (similar but not the same as the one in link) in his house bus, they seem a bit light weight but it worked fine
Yeah, total unit weighs 19kg, and the firebox is only 1mm steel from memory.Quote:
