Do I need to show you the door Bob or do you know the way?

Must be more on here that use cast iron?

[Everything Mac]

For anyone who has been to South Africa, this will bring back some memories

Measures 34cm x 12cm



It has been in the garage for awhile :-)

I have a fetish for cast iron and black iron. I have a bevy of skillets, pots and grills.

I have the Ronnie sunshines full box set. Haven't had a lot of time to use it in the summer but will be using it more in the winter.
Thanks

Dinner for 4 grown up and my little girl the big steak was for the dog!

[British Red]

[aris]

Heres mine!

It was an EBay purchase.

blacksmith made, tested by his Scout Troop...I'm very impressed with it. The fire tray just hooks onto the tripod legs, and can be left off if not needed.

The whole thing flat packs into the fire tray for transporting.

It's a 48cm Murrikka skillet from Nordic outdoors in Edinburgh they are £60 but worth every penny we use it weekly as meat tastes fantastic. It sits up on three legs that screw into the bottom. To clean it all you do is leave it on the small fire and pour water on and let it boil them scrape off what's left. I would advise that you buy the storage bag as well as it keeps every thing together. http://www.nordicoutdoor.co.uk/muuri...urikka-48.html

So this is actually iron (or maybe steel) rather than cast iron? The nordicoutdoor picture isn't very good. I don't see the legs there - are they attached, or is it a separate stand? I would love to see some more pictures if you have them.

[aris]

Found their website. http://www.muurikka.se/kategori/stekhallar/ - it translates fairly well via Google translate. It is hot rolled steel, and they seem to sell quite a bit of nice kit. Says 22cm detachable legs - but how do they attach? Just stay in place using gravity, or do they screw in? What size is yours, 48 or 58?

[southey]

They screw in.

[aris]

This very much reminds me of the South African Skottle.

They have a UK website: http://www.muurikka.co.uk

I love those Muurikka pans and sets on there website! Now where can I find some spare money to buy a pan set plus accessories!

[aris]

I'm thinking it would not be hard to make one of these if you had some sheet metal, and a plasma cutter :-)

[British Red]

Or make a thermic lance?????

I need a reason!

[jiffi]

The whole point of the worked steel it the heat transfer is much better than mild steel or I wouldn't spend the cash also don't buy accessories I made my own with a pallet knife and blow torch.

Round piece of 6mm steel, stick it over a hole in the ground, then get a Landy and drive over it. When sufficiently depressed (might need to do it a couple of times), remove, and drill two holes on each side to add some wire handles. Make up a stand out of rebar or similar. Might actually give this a go!
