Thread: Introducing the kiwi equivalent of the oz pig - The Camper!

Hi Guys, I've been working a cool project out of Tauranga. Its a portable cooker - heater - wood fire which will appeal to a great many people here.
Stick it in the truck for the next roadie, camp, beach, bivvy. It's a cool piece of kit that's got a lot of uses. I I think it will appeal to every man/women who loves playing with
and cooking over flame..

Bakewell Burner Camper - Bakewell Burners

They look great!

Looks awesome mate. Nice job!

I think that it looks fantastic. I wonder if you can extend the flu and use it inside if you want to?

A 9 kg gas bottle on its side with top side milled off and a plate welded on works super well

Super easy to make






Google "gas bottle fireplace"

It's easy if you have a welder and know what to do... Sure there's a market for people like me that works with wood not metal

I note that the bottom image is of a factory made Frontier folding camp stove.
Do you have one and how does it go ?
There is also a Frontier Plus stove being made now that has a small glass section in the door, more adjustability and a larger diameter flue.

One of those in one of these in one of these would be very cool ( or hot ).

One of these winters Im going to disappear into the mountains somewhere remote that I can hunt and fish, where there's a good supply of dead wood on the ground and just exist for a while.

Brand new gas bottles from mitre 10 are $25 from memory and saves you dealing with old combustible gasses during fabrication.

They are super fun to make

Cool...all we need now is a 'forum welder'......?...... @veitnamcam

I suppose you need an empty gasbottle to start with. I would imagine a full one might upset the engineer mans day??

Looks brilliant, can you run it in a wall tent?

I like it, do all the parts fit inside the main compartment for travelling?

Large box section would be handy for making lil cookers for boat/caravan/hut



Canadian "cubic mini wood stoves" will send to nz too

$433

Nice looking bit of gear,some of the gypsy bus people could be interested in this.Im running this.

Welding is work not fun.

Blowing shit up is fun so a full bottle is more likely to get your job done as a perk....(ps places to blow shit up without the men in black arriving are good too )
