Nice finds!

I know where there is a three burner Sears in an antique mall but at $165.00, a bit over my budget.

Thanks for the great new tutorial, Bob, and your past ones!

Interesting lantern. Decal is where a 220E transition lantern would be but no ribbed frame rest like a transition. Kinda of a transition to the transition, maybe.

I see a constant stream of mostly newcomers complaining that "the check valve leaks!!" and maybe I'm on a one-man mission to help folks realize this is normal operation. Tighten the air stem.

This^^^^^!

Ugh! No way I could do that!

No definitive answer but you might try "Delete Cookies" on the bottom right of any page.

Also, double your setting.

*snip* Why not go with Chromex for the collar and baseplate, too? It would look a lot sharper than the flat aluminum VHT. I agree Timm, but as the Applicator tells me, due to the cadmium Coleman used in a lot of their metal, its a real pain to get it out of the metal, acid wash wise, before the Chr...

This would be correct. Color is Header Red Cerakote.

Not gonna tell you what models they are, but these are two different models. Coleman should've done it!

If you are still here the 23rd, make a run over to Lewiston ID for Don Smack's gathering!

The seller can file a claim with USPS. I've never heard anything good about this process. Anyone know how this works out in the case of loss? I've always insured anything that was worth more than I was willing to "eat" in case it was damaged. But in the instance of something being lost by the post ...

Cool you found that in the basement after all this time.

Here in the Pac NW, when I was a much younger man, we drank this:

Carling Brewing called it their "keg" bottle!

The crappy latch on your cooler has a replacement kit, if it is still available, that makes in the cam latch like newer coolers. It appears Coleman found out the latch was was crap and made the kit.

I am happy you all were able to use the sale! As the ICCC president, I try to keep in contact with Coleman. You guys sure show your appreciation by your purchases! I was told to use the sale at my discretion, so I only posted the information here, for CCF members and anyone who saw my original post....

Ian, just show up! Bring a tent or whatever you want to camp in, if you are camping. If you have an RV let me know as there are 10 RV sites in Elk Camp, which is the Group camp we are using.

I have also sent you an email.

Updated information in first post is underlined!

Luckily, we find these scammers early. As soon as a Moderator is made aware of them, we delete their registrations.

I believe we can make the emailing settings like we have the Private Messaging and Classified Forum. that is, a member has to have 10 posts befor either feature can be used.

Had a couple of experiences with him. First time was for his repro 200A burner frames. I ordered from the sale he had for three. He replies that he only had one in stock (Violation of eBay practices!) but would either ship the other two when they came in or have the supplier drop ship them. The supp...

They do seem to be absent from the U.S. market over the last few years. I purchased 8 from a Canadian retail location last year. Dated March 2022. So, Coleman made them recently.
