Ok it is not zook but I feel it still fit the thread " i made it "

After making a smaller version of this except the oven bit I got to thinking and oven would be useful and hotwater would be handy and it went from there.
Time consuming but the end product was worth it.
Check the Video out and happy to hear any comments.

Main drawbak is the weight all up 32kg. But is very stable where my first one made from a 9kg was not on legs and top heavy with a Vitara rotor on the top as the heat plate.
The idea of the rotor is to distribute the heat even.

Thanks mate it is now sitting on the back drawbar of the caravan on it own bracket. Can also use heatbeads when you can't have a fire. I have a wire chip basket that fits into the rotor and also handy for doing the jacket potato and then finish it off in the coals.
