You could probably take a rounded edge of a screw driver handle or a large metal round bearing , marble maybe and give it a wack. Might tighten it up.

What brand do you guys use? Going to place an Amazon order and I’m tired of using oven cleaner and want to do a very thorough cleaning on some founts that I plan to seal up in the future.

I would like to see about getting the upper shade holder and a valve wheel and stem. The one on it has been modified from the valve wheel breaking at some point in its life.

Thats a bit of a hybrid looking stove. 20s features and 30s features.

James I'm typically looking for shades first then I find the lamp. The proper lamp is in the cue. It is a nice shade. Another collector has the decorated version for sale now. Not a cheap shade to acquire I would imagine that it would not be cheap. It’ll be a nice combo https://i.postimg.cc/5tzryjg...

Looks like a cherry on the bottom. I think it’s your lighting. Here’s my 6/62 cherry. I have a replacement decal though. The later one you show I would call it a standard red 200. I’ve seen cherry colored ones into 63, but have no knowledge beyond that year. My 10/61 burg to the left. https://i.post...

Just checked mine with calipers. That should be the correct one. I also checked some other Akron items and they are all the same.

Seems to be a lack of use in thorium in mantles these days. This may be the reason why with countries making the move to thorium for creating electricity. Just a theory.

My area is tapped out on everything. When I do find something it’s not easily repairable and they want way to much and it’s something that I already have. I find more common propane stuff anymore. When I do find gpas they are junk and common.
