    Oz Pig outdoor fire/stove

    Does anyone have one/used one and have any reviews good or bad?

    Are there other options for a portable outdoor fire/stove other than the Oz Pig?

    I'm on the hunt for a really small one, 50cal ammo box is looking like a candidate.

    Having watched their demo video they do look good with a camp oven on top, got to wonder on freight and cost. Saw one a guy had made in a ski field car park similar to the Oz pig, should have asked him if he would make a couple

    Main concern is build quality.

    I see Bakewell do an aluminium one that looks like a nice piece of kit at 10kg total weight.

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    I've seen a couple of DIY versions go well.

    We bought one of these.
    Will try it out over Labour Weekend.
    Will give a review.
    But I looked at the OZ pig and another and decided the bakewell would be the better option.

    someone on here...Vietnamcam???? was getting young fellas to make something similar .
    a mate made one up without flat bit to cook on and they sure poke out heat,another friend has one to heat her 20ft container home....super efficent on wood.
    seen the ozpigs at fairlie show and was impressed with concept if not the price...
