Does this mean you are not impressed by the Bucket O' Fire? I should mention its inspiration and features:

Inspired by the old carpenter's method of punching airholes near the bottom of a metal 5-gallon bucket and burning wood scraps for a little heat while working on frigid job sites, the cast iron Bucket O' Fire is a more upscale back yard campfire device. Unlike a campfire, the Bucket O' Fire is raised up off the ground with its sides at an appropriate level for radiating heat to a full circle of sitting, or standing, campers. There is excellent containment of the fire, embers, and ashes, leaving no messy campfire ring or detritus. In addition, the Bucket O' Fire provides a convenient rack for grilling or supporting cookware over the fire. If the festivities conclude before the fire is out, one merely places the cast iron lid over the whole shebang, which results in the remaining wood fuel being converted into charcoal, ready for the next entertainment event.

A potjie pot it definitely is not.

To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.
