It's sad to think that something I grew up with is an antique, but then again, so am I, I guess!! They're outstanding stoves, along with the Optimus 8R, Svea 127 and the like!
12:05 pm Oh my goodness !!! Camping my whole life (75years) starting out in Germany as a child I remember my dad starting camping stoves !!! Scariest things ever !! When the initial flame finally died down and 6:086:22 the blue flame kicked in was a nerve racking experience in a tent lol What a super job you did!! BRAVO and I really like the music with your videos....... there's a rhythm to your working!!
My dad has one of these, I have fond memories of playing with it as a kid and using it when we went camping. I have to say though, his still has the optimus badge on it, and is very much that colour blue that the original was before you sandblasted it. I'm 95% sure it's never been repainted and hence was the original colour as well.
Superbe restauration d’un petit coin pour un café sur le pouce en pleine campagne ou en bord de route ou réchauffer un plat tout près. Îles vraiment dommage que nous ne faissions plus de tels objets utiles et pratiques
@@Amazingct2000restorations, you can see ruined wick in the tube at 3:00. It is better to preheat the burner using strong alcohol - it will keep the burner clean and extend service intervals. Finally I'm not sure, but it seems this stove was designed for kerosene.
Just FYI get some good video editing software. There are plenty of free ones out there. You music is way to loud. With video editing software you can lower the sound of the music. I have you turned down to 25% volume on TH-cam and maybe a third on my speakers and music is still way to loud.
Excellent work as always. That looks real good after renovation 👍👍
Thanks
Now that really was amazing......
Excellent workmanship on the part of both the manufacturer and yourself, young man...
Thanks you so much for watching
That was excellent. Much attention to detail! The finished project is awesome.
Thank you very much!
This is the best one yet! Absolutely phenomenal work
Wow, thank you!
That’s was so much fun. Thank you for this video. I love stoves. The moment the stove was lit, was epic.
Thank you glad you liked it

And just like the stove, you still work. Quality engineering...
Very nicely done mate. A beautiful little stove.
Thank you kindly

Thanks for watching I really appreciate it
Merci à vous tous les restaurateurs passionnés,.Serait-il possible d'en recréer de nouveaux avec la technologie actuelle pour quelques nostalgiques ?
I’m sure it would be possible and a lot of work. Thanks for watching
Amazing
Excellent video but the music got on my nerves. I prefer the "workshop"sounds I guess..
Noted!

Was this model wickless?????
No it does not have a wick just a spirit tray. Thanks for watching I really appreciate it.

@@vgnparvez That was not a wick. That was a metal mesh used for fuel filtering.

Thank you so much. I’m happy you enjoyed it!
It's a porta stove.

you are meant to use methylated spirit to start heating
I used white gas for camping stoves seemed to work I’ll try the denatured alcohol next time thanks for watching
What he did with the fuel pump also remains a mystery. The internal part of the pump was hidden all the time. The power of editing..
