Adjustable Campfire Stand for Suspending a Billy Pot



This is a useful, adjustable pot stand for a billy can. It allows me to easily raise or lower my pot over the fire or coals. By controlling the heat, I can cook much easier and evenly. I can turn the pot off the fire entirely, allowing it to cool without having to sit the pot on the ground and risk getting kicked over.

The concept for this pot stand was found in Richard Graves' Ten Books of Bushcraft.

This video shows some fire making, the construction of the pot stand and how it is used over a campfire:
