(Geek alert) Historically, bellows are credited as being initially invented by the Chinese, with reference to manually operated bellows being used before the 3rd century BC, and hydraulically operated bellows being used post 3rd century BC. However, in light of there being no written or pictoral evidence, it is assumed that very primitive bellows (made from animal bladders and possibly tanned hides with a rudimentary tube) were used in Europe to smelt copper during the copper age from 3500 BC to 1700BC (proven by the discovery and carbon dating of Otzi who had a copper axe). This is predated by finds in Iran and Egypt, where copper ore was mined approximately 7000 to 4500 BC. Nick (a wealth of useless information. :)

I went camping for the first time yesterday. It was amazing I told my friends where I was camping and they laughed at me, Idk why because it was great I highly encourage camping at Holiday Inn Pro-tip: If you can buy a room a few weeks in advance you can get a deal on a room I got 20 percent off my room and I'll admit I went a little crazy. 2 rooms. Yep that's right TWO. And I was alone. I know. I Live on the edge. Never would of guessed camping is so fun. Room service was great. Really felt like I was roughing it out in the wild, connected to nature.

Guys, your fish wasn't done. :D I've been doing this all my life, it is basic way of cooking fish on the Adriatic coast. Try to grill it much lower, closer to the amber and not on the open flame. Your grill rack is not heated enough, it needs to be red hot before placing your fish on it. Fish has to be dry, you can dry it with a kitchen towel. It is important that your grill is made made out of thicker iron, it retains more passive heat. And leave head and tail on the fish, it will stay moist inside and you can rotate sides easier. Cheers

Bellows date back to the bronze age, possibly earlier, they probably used bag bellows, where you have a leather bag with two wooden handles that run the length of the bag, these are opened and the bag lifted to pull in air then the hadles are closed to trap the air and then the bag is squashed to expel the air into the fire or furnace.

I believe bellows or contraptions similar to bellows that perform the same function have been around for thousands of years (estimated around 5000 BC) and are directly connected to metal working, since it was found higher airflow to fire increases the heat. The bellows you have are a modern variant that became widespread in medieval Europe.

Hey MikeCracking videos buddyHere's an idea for your fire pit that I learnt from Fred J Taylor. Knock 3 or 4, 6'' or 8'' nails level, into the floor of your pit roughly the same width as your kettle or billy can and you have a nice steady platform above the embers to put it When you pack up, throw the nails into your tinder kit

Great video and a cracking camp, can simply say that this has got to be the biggest mackerel I have ever seen (cracking use/abuse of lemon juice too - you can never have too much lemon juice on anything) Many thanks for posting and all the best to you and your Dad. Nick

I used to ocean fish a lot. I'm not a mackerel fan. At least Pacific mackerel, which are only ones I know. Most of the people I know throw them back. They are dark meat and very oily. We only kept for bait. I love sea bass - kelp, white, sand, any.

Bellows appeared in use by the Chinese as early as the 3rd century, but I suspect they were in use before our present recorded history. used by Persians, Japanese, & Vikings. Who could know when they were first used? Clark and Virginia
