Yup, back in the day Alaska had tough laws. Simple oppss was a fine, get caught poaching browns, sheep, etc. And everything you used to commit the crime became property of the state, up to and including aircraft

Nice score. Definitely one of my favs. I picked one up on the bay and it was missing parts. So, a jackson is 20$, right? I think you did well. I would have been in fire twice that. Pb Yeah, all these new currencies have me confused. I'm not sure how to convert Jackson triplettes to Facebook clams😒

Is that a burg?

Thanks, Shawn. I might just take you up on that. I have a good friend and colleague who lives south of Tuscon who I plan to visit. He and his wife live on property that abuts the Saguaro National Forest, I believe. They love it there and have a tricked out camper for enjoying the wilderness of the ...

Contact me if you get one ...... I'll double your money!

You'll be first on my list but you'll have to come to Kansas to box it for shipment to you, I hate shipping stuff.

I use a tilly torch, probably overdo the preheat but prefer that to the alternative

So, In the northern hemisphere it gets dark at night, sometimes so dark a person can't see much. Now during the day things are lit up by Sunshine. So some fellers got together and came up with a way to make mini suns a feller could carry around shining on the dark stuff. Then some other feller said ...

20210102_141421_resized-1.jpgI'm amazed how focused the heat output is on these things. Hey Mike, can we get a close up on that generator? Yours appears to be the original “480-299” type generator. Its not a jumbo but might be an iron 55, it was on it when I bought it 20210215_122549_resized.jpg

Try a little penetrating oil around the cap, they can get difficult to remove as crap builds up under it.
They're no different than lantern pumps

I've never doused a bp stove with fuel, sounds extreme. I've been out in below 0F temps a number of times, even my last trip I had at least one kero stove and had no problem getting it going. Maybe you can try heating the bunsen in addition to the genny with a torch. Duane I did it with an 8R on a ...

Coleman quit making 502 generators a little while back, but OCP has someone who makes replacement gens for them. The guy is not making them right now, but should be back to making some in a month or two. For what it's worth, the coil inside the 502 is not for the purpose of heating inside the gener...

I'm guessing you're right. I need to pull the center when I get home and see if a Coleman 3 piece center will swap in.

I picked one up in decent condition at a decent price, the model with a separate filler cap.
Question is what is the alloy looking gap gasket made of???

The HOA won't allow a temp set up for the kids/grandkids to camp out in for a night or two?

Well...
In the past year and half I've disposed of maybe 10 or so GPA's.
Demanded and received the same high price for all, I suppose it's a "sellers" market.

From one of the comments: "Don’t ever use gasoline in these lanterns unless it is truly last resort. Not only are the combustion byproducts extremely dangerous, you will ruin the generator (the tube where the liquid to gas conversion) takes place. If someone has used gasoline in this, it no doubt f...

Yes, they allow us to drive in NJ. And the point of your post?
