the first time i saw this online i said…how cute
it still is
however i remembered making tripods from sticks and string to hold my billy (soup can and baling wire) in cub scouts (free)
got to play with a knife, a hatchet and fire…oh my!
later in life i ran into old guys using rebar tripods to hold their dutch ovens over their coals
anyway the hanging chain won’t burn or melt dumping dinner into the fire (natural fiber cordage is less likely to melt)
Craig, I would think the natural fiber pot hanging cord would burn.
if you build the fire right the heat is on the bottom of the pot…the truth is most folks lay a much larger fire than they actually need
pot hooks made from coat hangers worked as well
