    My luck the fire would travel up each side before I had a chance to add more rounds...

    In a survival situation, that would be awesome! How many survival tv shows have you seen where the idiots let the fire go out? Common sense says put a person on firewatch, but we all know reality TV and common sense don't normally coincide.

    Ah, a fully- automatic, magazine fed, camp fire. Betcha' before long there is a three- day waiting period before you can build one of those.... :)

    It looks slick but I would think that once the bottom logs got fully engaged they would set the next logs on fire and then so forth until the entire thing was burning, including the ramps. ??

    That's because all of the situations in reality tv are scripted.

    If she does ask, present her with this, a rocket stove mass heater! Some still allow for the viewing of the fire. All you need to do is put long lengths of wood into a hole and as the fire burns, the lengths of wood keep getting shorter. Kind of like the auto feed magazine. Could that be called Rapid Fire? :hair:

    Hurry and buy your set-ups now!
    As with other similar magazines, I'm sure "they" will soon outlaw the number of wood chunks that can be fed into the magazine....probably three or five maximum.
