I just found this and very much appreciate you sharing....we are headed to Maine next week and I will now be looking to buy one at some antique/ junk joint! thank you
You do really beautiful work here, cleaning up and caring to show each part. The sounds of this video are even very relaxing (this video could be titled ASMR and potentially into the millions- not exaggerating). I found this video because I am curious about how the Taylor Boggis junior stoves worked, and your video was a pleasant find in this category. Most videos these days have a lot of chatter, and this video was both informative, AND enjoyably relaxing/meditative. I know this video is a few years old, but I have subscibed in case you start up again.
Nice retauration but one last thing is required: you must trim the wick so that the flame appears uniform. Your wick is a little bit higher at the righthand side which leads to a sooty flame there. If the top of your wick and of the flame is near flat, you will prevent soot formation.
@@saveitall9847 Thank you. I saw one of these a week or so ago and was fascinated by it so bought it. I debated about cleaning and painting but I am leaning on just cleaning really good. There is a "bits" of the original label on it so I think I will try and keep that. Loved your video!
I have been looking for info on these for years. I have my grandparents' Griswald. Where did you get the replacement glass? What kind of fuel do you use?
@@johannacarder6903 I just picked one of these up for 25 bucks at an antique store, and this is the perfect video for restoring it! Side note, do NOT use white gas camp stove fuel in a stove like this. It's basically unleaded gasoline. Use only high grade kerosene or lamp oil. Have fun!
@@geoffbc8628 thank you for the heads up on the fuel! Makes sense because of the wick. I think I'll stick to lamp oil. Just curious tho, why not white gas camp stove fuel? Since you emphasized DO NOT use it.
@@geoffbc8628 never mind. I just reread and now understand you to say camp fuel is actually gasoline. Thank you again for your help!! I've since moved and it is misplaced. Well have to look for it. I've been carrying the mica around for several years now.

👍 nice restoration
I just bought one of these last weekend in good condition for $38.00. Mine is a double and the mica is on the ends. These are so cool. Good video

Very good restoration bro 👍👍👍👍

Good job, I'm as good as new!
Thanks for watching Roberto.
Nice video, I just saw one on Facebook marketplace and wondered if it would be worth picking up.
I remember this restoration 🤗 #KitanaNewcombeMacguire (Tahiti)

What was in the bucket?
What did you soak the part in?
Evaporust. It works really good.

Would you have any input about a before and after value?
I have a chance to pick one up.
What is the clear plastic you use for the window part?
Mica glass, a natural mineral thats extremely heat resistant
@@matthewh4747 Yea, i figured that out few days after I posted that question. I had to restore an identical burner.
Does the kerosene give any off flavours?
You can smell it. It would be best to operate it outside.
I have been looking for info on these for years. I have my grandparents' Griswald. Where did you get the replacement glass? What kind of fuel do you use?
I got the windows from ebay. The material is called mica. I used a clean burning stove fuel for camp stoves. I think I picked it up from Walmart.
@@saveitall9847 thank you for your help. I was hoping I could use the white fuel for camp stoves.
