Very good - it looks like the pot hanger could slip off the arm. How much of a dimple do you put in to make sure things stay secure?

Cheers guys.

Never had a pot hanger slide off. The dimple is very small. The point on the hanger and the weight of the pot keep everything connected.

Only one way to find out is to have a go and experiment. I try different methods all the time, some work and some do not - this one does.

Cheers

Nice job, thanks for sharing: another one for Scouts in summer 2016, if not before. (Also, thanks for all the great ideas at Bushmoot.)

Glad you all liked this article guys.

I have had quite a few members of the Scouts contacting me about making these set ups. Kind of strikes a cord I think with you all.

I will be posting up a few more over the winter.

Cheers
