Thanks Tasker!
I've been busy with this one...not exactly a really nice bumper, but something that everyone will certainly enjoy.
It's a solid cast iron fire pit / cooker! This thing throws out some serious heat! Not being a sheet metal fire pit, it's designed to last a lifetime, if not an heirloom item! All hardware is stainless steel, and the cooking grate rotates away from the flames to loading and serving, while also being able to be raised and lowered to adjust for cooking temperatures. It took over a year to develop, test, tweak and perfect. The website will be live soon and they are built and sold right in Holden, Massachusetts.
This project started in 2008 when the purchase of a cabin in the small town of Sherman, Maine created a need for a fire pit that doubled as an outdoor cooker. It was not pretty, but it functioned very well and having eaten off of the original myself, I can say it’s a very unique experience. Fast forward to October, 2020. I was handed the task to recreate this functional, yet primitive cooker into a manufacturable product. We wanted a product that was heirloom quality. A lifetime purchase built to last. A product where no one was ever left out of the conversation while tending to a gas grill, and everyone could participate in casual cooking with a front row seat. As the development moved forward, it consumed more and more of my time, effort, testing and evaluation, along with some international travel. During this development time, more people from within my company and around the globe with expertise I don't possess were giving incredible insight. The team grew, and eventually the entire Engineering, Sales, Marketing and Manufacturing teams were involved. It's been a passion project from the start.

If you're taking a route through the mountains the Kancamagus highway is a beautiful drive from Lincoln NH headed east towards Maine. Definitely going to get my '74 up there this year!
