What I want is the 3 legged thing to hold a pot over or next to a fire. As to what it should look like I am less sure. Does anyone have any pictures of trivets?

The arrow shafts at the native ways link above appear to be 9mm or so.Naama missle rules says 8mm is the size to use for combat arrows. Do we have a problem here?
Thanks

River Haven do not have a paypal account at this stage. ASB bank draft in Aussie dollars costs an extra NZ$22.
Any suggestions?
