Thurmond, a 46-year-old raft, kayak and climbing guide with over 25 years of experience, was challenged to create a better campfire.
The Tabletop Vol-CAN-no retails for $195 on the company’s website and in 21 small outdoor retailers around the country.During forest fire season in the heart of the Rockies, Joshua Thurmond joined a group of fellow raft guides and kayakers for one last trip of the year.
“I went home and built seven different models in a week or less,” Thurmond said. “I just went crazy and didn’t sleep in four days. Once I’m going, I’m going. I outfitted an entire van once in three-and-a-half months.” Both connect to a propane tank for use, and come with a propane regulator and hose. The smaller version comes with a stand and grill top to convert the campfire into a stove.
Thurmond said he has sold 4,000 units of the Tabletop Vol-CAN-no and 130 units of the Krakatoa FireBreather, the latter of which just started shipping to customers this month since it’s hard to find the rocket boxes. He said most of his customers are campers or use it on their patio.The portable campfire is in a 50-cal ammo box and can warm six people.
Leffingwell, a freelance outdoor photographer, bought the Tabletop Vol-CAN-no in 2020 and said he’s been using it as a solution to the fire bans over the last couple of years.“We were the only person last year with a fire going by Granby Lake, and even the campground host was about to tell us to put it out before he saw that it passed the fire restrictions,” Leffingwell said.
The outdoor entrepreneur applied for a patent in January last year to cover the style of the burner in the LavaBoxes and the way it functions, and hopes to receive it next year.
