Cast Iron Stove

Post by Magz »

What do we think of this? I'm thinking it's a handy thing to have stored, nice size for my flat post SHTF guessing I could cook on it and warm the place up?

I wouldn't be able to get it for a while yet, but I think it would be money well spent, was also looking at generators, Gona really up the preps after Christmas.

It looks good magz and a good price. It's something I have been looking at for longer term preps but not looked at in depth yet.

Does anyone know what stove Ray Mears took with him when he did the canada series ? By the sounds of it it was a woodburner that packed down small enough to carry in a backpack ( I think )

Like the look of that stove Magz and to be able to cook on it too! Bonus!!! :D
We tried perching our small camping kettle on the edge of our woodburner (it is a fitted one with a jutting out bit of about 2-3". the kettle took an hour to boil so we would need to predict when we wnated a cuppa :lol:

Nice stove and a very nice price. If you dont mind me being nosy how much did the total cost come to including the flue and fitting ?
