I have a silver one, and a 1972 vintage one, copper/black color.

I find the vintage one more robust in construction. The silver one seems flimsy by comparison.
The vintage one seems to hold the heat better.

Nice looking CI. Great quality pieces, great prices. Good vintage CI for anyone wanting to add to your camp cookware.

What an inviting outdoor area!

Good for you Logan. Sometimes we make it through one day at a time. We should recognize our accomplishments, and help others in the same boat. AA was a big help to me in my first few years of sobriety. Life is so much better without alcohol, for some of us.
I'll have 34 years at the end of April.

Very cool Pancho !!

Anxiously awaiting pics of tasty treats from the Ulf's Coleman cooking appliances!

That's a nice power supply Timm. I bought one planning only electrolysis use, and it doesn't have the fine adjustment to three decimal places. Mine is coarse only, to two places. I'll have to play with it a bit and see if it is capable of holding .30 A. I imagine it can, as it is capable of either c...

Another generous offer Ulf. Your accompanying narrative is my favorite part of your giveaways

I've painted a few. Usually I wanted a red wheel and only had black. Be sure to clean it well before painting. Most modern spray paints bond well directly to plastic.
I've had zero issues with paint adherence. Go for it.

That 290 looks clean! Try a large bulge globe on it... changes the appearance in an interesting way (237/639 size large bulge globe). Your milspec looks like a good user. The milspec is more a novelty to me; I find them just a bit too fiddly to use on a regular basis. I prefer the simple reliability...

Rob Butts can make the appropriate size mica chimney for a 200A.

lynn225

That's a fine looking stove... NOS, it appears. Your wife has a lovely smile... she's the perfect Coleman model !! Don't forget the pizza stone for the bottom of the oven, lest Mrs Ulf be disappointed with the oven's tendency to have hot spots and burn your dinner. The pizza stone sitting on the bot...

Nice one!

Great idea!!

Wow!! Beauties!!

Still too chilly in the PA Alleghenies to sit and dine outdoors. The temp today was good for a quick sandwich while walking around

Not too bad. 52F to start at 5PM, 43F an hour and a half later at 7 PM. I didn't wear gloves this trip and my fingers didn't get cold until the last 20 minutes. My wife only had a half skirt on, she got soaked in a couple of the rapids. She wasn't cold until we got out.

My last, night paddle.

Night paddles on flat water are great! I don't do that often enough.

Nice ones Brian, good job !!

I like their "Stand With Ukraine" knife. Putting that on my "want" list.

That is a fine looking knife!

Nice Fulton Lynn! How long ago did you get your 1825 vise and where? Small high quality vises like that go for premium $$ on Eprey these days. If you get lucky, you might find one at an estate or yard sale, but those deals are getting fewer and further between these days. I do see deals for 3 to 5"...

lynn225

I like a smaller vise for Coleman parts work. I'm using a 2.5" Fulton 1825 that I restored. Build date 1907 - 1911, so it's well over 100 years old. Quality vises of this size and age aren't too hard to find, aren't very expensive, and are easy and satisfying to restore. https://i.postimg.cc/7YbFqP4...

Ulf, the opportunity to address one of your statements is within your grasp. Meet Mr. Rob Butts (and other CCF luminaries) at the Gettysburg convention. Being a tourist town, accommodations of all descriptions await you, if camping isn't preferred. A short run up 270 and 15 puts you right in the par...

Cool sign !

Ulf, new, current manufacture ovens are available online everywhere. Aluminized, and flimsy. I prefer the older steel ones, painted copper & black. They hold the heat more evenly. Mine was "unfired" but rusted on one panel from damp storage. It is dated approx 1972, according to spare parts catalog ...

Lynn, how did you know when you recieved a call if it wouldn't ring? We have a couple rolling around in the prop room, fun on stage when doing oldies.

I have a black one. I hooked it up to my landline... I could call out, receive calls... but couldn't get it to ring. I read something about how they are keyed to a local exchange signal, and ring signals are not the same in all areas.

lynn225

Nice ones!

lynn225

Looks great Duane. Its been a couple years since I've done any winter camping.

lynn225

Ulf, that's a beautiful vintage KampKook!! As said, a 425 or 413 Coleman would be great user stoves. The 425 is a bit more compact... but if you're not traveling/camping with it, go with the 413. Its larger size makes it more versatile, you can use larger pots and pans. And as a bonus, the Coleman c...

Hansblix. Looking forward to your progress. When it warms up I’m going give it a try too. I have this unit being delivered tomorrow. I reached out to Gunhippie also but he has been under the weather as of late and his cell service is hit and miss. He was the first to come to mind also. He was very ...
