Hi all,

Just finished this little project,

Anyone who uses a wood burning type stove to heat their homes knows how much you need to keep it going through the winter.

We cut all our own fuel ( Dead Wood) From the woods around us. Normally I would carry it all in a wheel barrow or if going to parts of the wood where cant get the barrow into it would be carried in my arms.

Personally I find it a lot easier carrying weight on my back so come up with this.

Made from an old pack frame, baby gate, memory foam that was used as packing and off cuts of leather.

I padded out the shoulder straps with the foam and covered it with leather to make it easier on the shoulders and used the cut up baby gate to make a base.Next was the "Stomach belt" which was made up with webbing and clips from various old bags.A couple of bolts and a lick of paint and its ready to go.
