I think you will find that Billmans have made all sorts of camp ovens over the years so yes possibly they did but finding out for sure could be difficult.

SJ,
Getting back to the SJ plough….my husband is an Ackland, and they are a little sort on the details, but there is and Ackland plough somewhere out there, I am told.
Do you have a website/blog on the history of the SJP?

I have an unnamed oven which I believe to be an early Billmans, I took it to a COG where Astro saw it and agreed. He later sent me a very old Billmans lid with indented lettering which fits. This oven is 10" deep by 12" across and is the only one I have ever seen.

When I die I hope my missus doesn't sell my camp ovens for what I told her I paid for them. pd

The judge's decision is final... unless the 3rd umpire is called for... or a facebook campaign goes viral !!!

That interview with the Billman's was a good read David. A great Aussie company by the seems of it.

Those prices are still the same as the 2011 price list but I would expect them to increase before long.
