I’ve got one of those from the early 70’s. It is in a rusty old tin box. Your bags are much better. I might just get it out and fire it up. My climbing mate had a gas stove and I used to beat him to a good boil from a cold start.
I believe mine is from that time period. Mine came with the tin box as well, I just thought it seemed a little clunky to carry in the pack, so I made up some waxed canvas bags for the stove. I keep all my spare seals, NRV tool and jet cleaning needles in the tin. They're fantastic stoves! Enjoy firing it up again! Thanks for watching - Hayden
@@watosmate8935 the 12cm Zebra billy can fits perfectly, so any bushpot that size and bigger fits perfect. I've used a vast amount of cast iron on it too, skillets, griddles and even a petromax ft3 Dutch oven. These stoves can hold a surprising amount of weight. You can't go wrong with any container as long it fits okay on the three legs. Thanks for watching! - Hayden
@@watosmate8935 it's the Lodge 6.5" wildlife series skillet. It's got a lovely wolf design on the back. They do offer it as a plain skillet as well obviously. Let me know if you have anymore questions!
I bought my one in 74 and sold it. Fortunately I found an even older one in the blue tin. Possibly 60 years old. Still works fine. I use premium diesel and a cigar shaped hip flask with a fibreglass wick for priming. Meths and parrafin are too expensive for me. They really are beautiful things
It's a great option. Fuel is readily available and it works every time, no matter the weather conditions. One thing to note is that these stoves are now rather old and the seals will need replacing. Hope this helps! - Hayden

@@autumnkraft beauty, I like that cast pan you have as I am interested in one or a skillet, remember what store you bought from or maker?

I bought mine in 1978 and I still use it today. Fantastic piece of kit, easy to maintain and very good at what it was designed for.
That's great! Glad it's served you so well! Thanks for commenting - Hayden

@4:08 the is that a fuel leak underneath the stove?
It is! I had to rebuild the burner after this video and replace the seals! It's all fixed now - Hayden
A powerful rocket.
It certainly sounds like one!

@@autumnkraft how can I get it
@@antonotieno8886 I got mine on gumtree. You're best of looking on eBay most likely, but there are other options like antique shops etc. - Hayden
...это керосиновый, или переделанный под бензин?!!
This stove runs on kerosene 🔥
@@autumnkraft ... всё понятно!-, просто я видел точно такой-же только он работал на бензине, там была переделана форсунка и жиклёр!!!
What the yeas bro
