    It just seems out of place but I could be wrong :shock: , it's happened so many times before :doh: :doh: , but i do believe the pot gripper fits to the outside of the column when in use. [-X :lol: :lol:

    I think the link is supposed to be this one....

    Not very practical though. Sticks the end of the handle you'll want to hold straight into the flames! If you've got to wear asbestos gloves to hold the pan gripper, you may as well use them to grip the pot :roll:

    Cheers, Graham.

    Mine arrived today. Only bought it three days ago from germany. Strange bit of kit with the flap to stick the pot grab through. I will try mine out using a meths burner and see what happens. If all works, i will take a few pics.
