Don't use the ImageShack links. Use the one above it. Click on Browse, select the photo on your computer and then post message. Pic needs to be no bigger than 250 kb

If you still have problems email the photo to me at derek@aussiecampovencook.com and I will do it for you.

Cheers

Here are the photos. Baz says it measures 140mm Deep without top on. 350mm across with top on. Height excluding handle 225mm

Seems to have a few nuts welded on the top of the lid Baz. Any idea why??

Looks like a 12 inch Furphy.

Anyone hazard a guess at age??

Photos were over 3 meagbytes that is why they wouldn't load. Reduced them down

Not sure why the nuts were welded on. I hazard a guess the original owner has screwed bolts or legs into it to use upside down like a frypan. Can't think of anything else that might make sense? Its a 14" In good nick, no cracks etc. And the nuts can be removed without any damage.

No just any updates anyone might have about the history/age of Furphy Camp Ovens considering we have quite a few new members.

I spoke to a friend recently and he mentioned having a Furphy camp oven (it is the same as Baz62's oven). We have one the same also.

Anyway he said he bought it in 1975 or 76 from Grice Stoves at Wooloongabba in Brisbane. The owner of the shop told him it had been there for years as no one wanted to pay the money with all the cheap Chinese ovens around. He is pretty sure he paid $70 for it.

Anyway I thought that information would belong in this thread..
