This is interesting. They claim this is only 8 years old. So Furphy may still be even making them.

That'd certainly be a conversation piece out on the patio.

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

I have noticed a lot of activity lately with people viewing this subject.

Is there anyone out there who has any additional information for us.

I do note that since the early days of this post we did in fact see an 8" Kangaroo Camp Oven with no Furphy markings on it sold on eBay.

If you are a visitor to the Forum and have some information yet do not wish to post then please send me an email to derek@aussiecampovencook.com

Found this on the Furphy website.

Not so sure on the accuracy as it has camp ovens made in the 1940's and 50's. If it is correct then we have a whole new slant on the history

As I've said in the past some of the ovens I have aquired were from old blokes who mentioned they had them in the 40's & 50's. Makes sense to me

I'm a newbie am hoping this is the right place to post. I have what I think is an old Furphy camp oven and was looking to sell it as I have a couple by E & G Foundry. Most of the Furphy's I have seen have a size number this one doesnt. I have searched for information online but don't seem to be picking up much.Anybody out there who could identify it from a pic?

Thanks Baz
