I Tried a £5 Steamer Basket as a FIRE PIT... Did it Melt? 😱

Is this the ULTIMATE Ultralight Fire Pit? 🏔️🔥 Can a $5 adjustable vegetable steamer basket actually work as a portable, folding fire pit? Or will the intense heat turn it into a puddle of melted metal? In today’s video, I’m putting this common kitchen gadget to the absolute test in the backyard to see if it’s a genius budget camping hack or a total fail. We look at the airflow, how it handles a real wood fire, and most importantly: Did it melt? What’s inside this video: The Setup: Why a steamer basket’s design is perfect (on paper) for a fire. The Burn Test: Starting a fire and pushing the temperature limits. The Aftermath: Inspecting the hinges and metal for warping or melting. Pros vs. Cons: Is it worth carrying in your rucksack? Why use a "Tiny Fire Pit"? If you’re into ultralight backpacking or bushcraft, you know that every gram counts. Finding a way to have a contained, "Leave No Trace" fire without carrying a heavy iron pit is the holy grail. But stainless steel has its limits! 🔔 SUBSCRIBE for more gear tests, budget camping hacks, and outdoor experiments! 💬 DROP A COMMENT: What’s the weirdest thing you’ve ever used to start a fire?
