The older we get....
« on: February 14, 2012, 11:17:00 AM »
The more we look for the "comforts" in deer camp.

We have a concrete pad so our campfire has to be elevated. Our old one finally burnt up so I built this one. I thought some of the older guys, like Ron Lee Klare, would appreciate the "toe warmers"

looks good. I use the guts to a washing machine.  I welded chain together for legs and it stands off the ground about 18". I carry it to shoots in the summer and to the woods in the fall.
