Gasoline Stove š„ [Gear Talk]
Given to me by my grandfather, box looked dull and uninteresting. Once opened, metal box appeared.
As I pry it open it unfolds itself into the stove. Hmm. Rusty thing. Runs on gasoline you say.
So, i pour some into the tank and some onto the stove itself? Then I light it and it explodes, right? My friend stands back as he records for the youtube fail video.
So, I thought to myself, let's try this. I light the fuel on the burner, it sets aflame. After the flames start to die down, I turn the switch and the gasoline rushes out through the burner and burns clear flame! Magic! I didn't believe it would work. Date in the papers say 1982.
I wasn't even born yet and this thing starts with the first try. Good stuff. Goes into car kit as a backup! Along with big soup pot and extra gasoline canister.
Hope you like the post, will upload the video soon.š„

Of course it worked @juozas there was a time in this world things were built to last.
Made with pride, cherished and looked after by your grandfather, still in the original casing - Of course it works...
Now to plan that outdoor adventure, use it for cooking in the great outdoors.
Hey @juozas
It looks like a nice bit of kit. You just need to go camping now. š

Ahh - that would be great for long road trips or trail rides - just pull off for lunch, siphon a little gas from the car or atv, good to go. Totally agree with joanstewart - they dont build things like they used to :)
