After grabbing a great price on an ash vac, I searched for other Scandia bargains and found this. A Google search shows was $88.

In fact, I bought two (one for a neighbour), so I blew my savings on the vac :)

A review suggests it will benefit from a little chicken wire modification, but I've got lots of chicken wire.

If you have a fireplace, it might be worth a walk around Bunnings at the moment. About this time last year I scored this great wood rack for $90 - just the last of two in store.

    You're a good neighbour :)

    Poor reviews on Bunnings…

      Reviews on bunnings website are meaningless. Not enough data to be credible.

        Thankyou Mr Bunning.

      • jaygee on 09/08/2023 - 12:28

        2/2 bad reviews may certainly not be seen as a 'standard', but it's certainly is credible.

      Yes, some dodgy modification may be required. It's something of a specialty around here.

      If you go directly via the URL it gets a 'Page not found', where as if you search for it, it works (updated URL for OP).

    What happened to a wheelbarrow?

    • TooSerious2 on 09/08/2023 - 11:28

      I'm hoping this goes backwards up a couple of steps easily and through a door.

      Trailer from tree to woodpile, wheelbarrow from woodpile to wood shed. It was a sling from wood shed to fireplace, but now it will be this trolley.

      I also think it will be useful for an older couple who can get a hand with the first two steps but have to do the last one by themselves of an evening.

      I agree. An invention that no one ever asked for or needs. Just like the ash vac. Old traditional methods work because they are simple, cheap and effective.

      I cut, split, handle and burn about 15m² of firewood every winter and can't see any use for this rubbish.

      • TooSerious2 on 09/08/2023 - 14:36

        Are you a potter? Spit-roasting size open fire place? I tell my kids we're a bit soft getting through 5-6 tonnes a year in our pretty big slow combustion stove.

        And I seem to have a soft spot for trolleys - tool, hose. Looking for a kisk arse, fat wheeled, not collapsible washing trolley.

        I may have briefing considered starting a heavy duty home trolley import business. :)

        • Muzeeb on 09/08/2023 - 18:10

          15m² is about 7-8 tonnes so not far off your usage. I source it from my own property so the wood heater burns 24/7 for about 12 weeks. Easy come. Easy go. Probably a different story if I was paying for it.

          • TooSerious2 on 09/08/2023 - 18:25

            @Muzeeb: Yeah, we're similar. Try to put the first fire off until after ANZAC Day and winding down now. I buy in a bit over half - I'm lazy and our local fire bloke is a hero.

    @TooSerious2 - This trolley is actually fantastic but comes more as a blank canvas.
    The thumbnail shown is a bit fraudulent. You would never get more than two pieces in before the wood falls out.
    We have used a wood heater as primary heating for 25 years and just in the last month bought one of these.
    It is a bare frame and only needs some boards screwed into the horizontal surfaces of the frame to actually hold the wood so it doesnt fall out.
    Unfortunately, this was not mentioned anywhere.
    This is much better and lighter than a wheelbarrow we used previously and with the mod is a pleasing thing.

    • TooSerious2 on 09/08/2023 - 14:12

      Thanks for the tip. Thought of chicken wire but boards would seem more solid. Or I've got some 50mm steel mesh somewhere…

    • park it on 09/08/2023 - 14:37

      Does the cover cover the whole cart? And is it suitable for use outdoor?

      • teaBagger on 09/08/2023 - 14:59

        cover covers the roof of the cart and it suitable for use outdoor

        • park it on 09/08/2023 - 15:03

          Darn it. Then how does it keep the wood dry in the rain?!

          • harrysab on 10/08/2023 - 12:29

            @park it: It only keeps the wood on the top dry in the rain.

    • wrx5 on 10/08/2023 - 11:52

      chicken wire is the solution then

    • TooSerious2 on 10/08/2023 - 17:24

      @teaBagger I've just put one together. I can see I will need "floor" boards on the two levels. Did you find the need for front and back walls as well? Ta

      • teaBagger on 11/08/2023 - 19:05

        No mate, only the floors. I actually used two old car mats for mine :)

        • TooSerious2 on 12/08/2023 - 15:55

          Legend. Thanks mate.

          I used an old rubber floor mat cut in half and some steel zip ties. Might run an leather belt vertically front or back.

          I'll drop it off to Bill tomorrow. Cheers.

    I think getting those beach/camping carts would be better.If you need something better then a gorilla cart from bunnings.

    • a22andrew on 09/08/2023 - 16:37

      But more expensive, to be fair
