General Discussion / Re: Weber BabyQ, Tie down gadget

I think you might need the Weber Q to have the flame out fitted if you are going to mount it like that.

Yes, I' aware of the Flame out regulations, cheers.
I just want store it in the tunnel when travelling, not fix it to use on the slide.
The boot tunnel is not covered by the roll-out awning, and if the annex walls were to be used, it would still be outside, so not practical on wet blowy days.
I would use one of the 9kg bottles from the draw bar, and sit the weber on a table under the awning.

Hairs, I am aware that Off-road Down Under have brackets for clamping down a Weber, they also do slides and other bits.
I have been contemplating removing our stainless steel slide out kitchen and replace it with one of their simple Weber slides as we don’t use the current slide out kitchen other than to rest the Weber on and we could save around 30kg if removed.

As you, we bought a 2018 New Age Road Owl.
Fingers crossed this weekend will be our first camp, only locally,
My question is, does anyone know of a tie down, locking gadget that will secure it in the front boot tunnel?
The boot is forward of the Caredree roll out awning, the van came with a full annex, so a slide out won't work, if the weather isn't favourable.
We have got use to cooking on the Weber, and Fysh would like to keep the cook top & grill in an unused condition.
Usually, we would take my 80 series with the rear fold camper and the Weber would be on the folded down back seats.
Anyway, just thought I'd ask, I might have to make something.
Cheers.

It's sickening to see the rubbish some leave behind, and camp fires still burning
One thing that does my head in, seeing live trees cut down next to the river bank, what do they think is holding that lovely flat grassed area together, that they love to camp on?

Anyway, yes we pickup what we can.
The broken glass in fires pits.
We usually have to chicken pick the area before we setup, then leave it better condition then what we found. Come back next time(might only be a month), the sh1t left everywhere again.
Makes you wonder what their homes are like.

I often see disgusting things left in our beautiful bush. Broken camp stuff, rubbish of all kinds and the most scary of all, camp fires not extinguished properly. We mostly bring out more rubbish than we take in but it's bloody hard to keep up with the crap left out there. It's no wonder they want to lock the parks up.
In saying that though, Victoria in bordering on bankruptcy so one does wonder if the reasoning behind the closures is more of a fiscal policy than a ecological one.

Champin,
Our 4wd Club has an exemption, chainsaws, as we help NPWS maintain several old huts within National Parks, only when we are attending to this task.
Used for clearing tracks, to gain access to these remote places.
Sometimes after storms, trees can be down across tracks.
I haven't looked into,
If you are carrying a chain saw and you need to travel through a National Park, to gain access to a State Forrest, free camp or private property.
I also don't know how they are going to police it, we've been camped in state forest, and have heard a saw operating across the river in a national park.
So I guess some people either don't know the regs or they are just, oh well if I don't get caught,

Seriously?
Are chainsaws banned in national parks? My 18" chainsaw lives in my car. And I've used it on the way to work occasionally to clear trees off the road.

Yes, In northern NSW.
Hey I know, it's madness.
Yes, There has to be some controls, to stop mindless behaviour.
However, throwing a blanket over those that do the right thing is an over reaction.
I get the protection of our natural resources, but imo the sword don't have to be used.
