But, never had a fastex buckle break? Consider yourself lucky. It's why MEC and REI have webpages and bulk bins for them:

I had considered an over nighter this weekend to try a fire technique called a Finnish log torch but we are currently experiencing what the weather man called an "atmospheric river"
Total ground saturation and localized flooding. I don't want to heat my tent but I want to see how the fire burns.

The log heating is interesting, though I like the idea of using a Dakota Fire Hole for cooking, then moving my tarp over the finished fire area to capture heat from the warmed earth.
Post flood of course....
