After a big year of travel, I am in the process of streamlining my camping and travel equipment and also looking at the storage and protection of it. Up until now I’ve been using various sized cardboard boxes as well as the odd horse feed bags to wrap cooking equipment like Billy’s, jaffle iron and BBQ . Yesterday I caught the crown prince sneaking into the shed with an assortment of canvas bags.

“They were having a sale” was the justification.

Were they ever. I’ve probably gone a little overboard myself but at 45% off, I wasn’t going to stuff around anymore. The breadmaker has it’s own padded bag now as does the camp table, grill, power cables, ecobilly and just about everything else! The best thing is Queen Vik has just down the xmas shopping for me without leaving the loungeroom lol.

Just thought I’d bring it to forum members attention as I know many have used Klaus and Lyn’s products so if your looking for canvas bags and covers etc, now would be a pretty good time to stuff the xmas stocking and have a look at the gear from Infront . Cheapest I’ve ever seen their stuff yet.

No affiliation, just like good Australian made products.

Cheers Mick

Hi Mick

I thought a man of your stature would not put any misleading information on such a great site like this.

You mention one of your camping items as...Jaffle Iron....?

The last time I heard, it was still hanging in a bush at the Plane Crash Site on the Anne Beadell Highway.........lol


Sounds great Mick, thanks for the information.




Cheers

Stephen, 2 months of counselling wasted. You've bought the separation anxiety back on!

I got a replacement as a fathers day gift ;-)

I wouldn't put my Breadmaker in a bag Mick.
I don't think she would like that! lol

Micks is a bit of a pocket rocket so she would fit easily :)

Al, you are the worlds bravest man lol.

Mate I'm pretty sure Klaus could make a bag for her but I don't think the noise proofing would be adequate ;-)

So does that mean like me you have tossed out half the junk you've been carrying and never used?

There's a bunch of InFront canvas gear in my kit. Good canvas strongly made. Highly recommended.

Thanks Mick O for the heads up. Just logged on and bought a wheel/rubbish bag for the fourby. Great products and as you know their current promo lets you buy their gear at 45% off....bargain for quality products.

Cheers. I thought the same thing. Should have mentioned that the promo code for the discount is "melb cup".
