Old traveling Sears 2.0 pic I ran across today. Hopefully Saskatoon yields some new pics and a hand off to a new temporary caretaker.

I have a marine stove with a missing support. Does anyone have a spare they would sell from a parts stove?
Thanks in advance.

Rfieldbuilds

Oh my. Where to begin? Thinking back there were sort of two seasons in those kid year hijinks. One was BA(before alcohol), and the other AA(after alcohol) was involved. Glad to have survived. There were a few things I did or was involved in that could have gone real bad. Blessed to have the freedom ...

Stewart is definitely on my ‘good guy’ list. In fact, pretty much all of ya all are.

Rfieldbuilds

Dan, I mailed yours out today.

Rfieldbuilds

Any idea how wide(deep) they are at the bottom?

Rfieldbuilds

All messages received. Please include ship to address in your PMs guys. Thx so much.
I’ll try to get all these out today if our computer network is repaired at work.
Cheers!

Thanks David, Kevin, and Doug for your interest. I expect these will go out tomorrow. Look for a PM with tracking when I generate the label. Kevin and Doug, still waiting on your ship to addresses. Glad to hear everyone is happy with their wraps. These are a little small so they grip the bail nicely...

Gunhippie, perhaps a limo and a pet fish?

There are some nice ones in there that I could use. Way too far of a drive! Thanks though.

Happy to ship to you. Can ls free. Shipping is what shipping is.

Bail wraps/found protectors protect your fount and paint from chipping, scratching and denting. FS. 6’ length of bail wrap. Cut as many or few pieces of bail wrap as you like. $7.50 for one 5’ bag, $10 for two 5’ bags, $12.50 for three bags, $15 for four bags. This includes shipping in US or $3 appl...

not a fuel can so to speak . found it looking for fuel cans on line . pretty pricey . charcoal in a can :-) https://i.postimg.cc/8CrgpnGh/hunters-heater-kingsford.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/RF55NQC2/pioneer-lantern-fuel-can.jpg this guy is real proud of his can at 500 https://i.postimg.cc/nrpy1FDk/pe...

Superb. Do you have arms to effect a repair?

Rfieldbuilds

Not sure where the original came from, but I did a rework of a stovie meme. So, without further adeiu, here it is....

Rfieldbuilds

Ouch!. Caswell time!

Rfieldbuilds

A real cracker my friend. Congrats.

Rfieldbuilds

Ot a lot of pics of the GL3’s online. I didnt see one that clearly showed the bail.

Rfieldbuilds

Pm with interest

Rfieldbuilds

Rob, I cant recall. Is that the same bail as an Ash Flash single?

Rfieldbuilds

Slightly slower Mississippi River record.

Rfieldbuilds

Wow. A pretty hard to find lantern for something so modern.

Rfieldbuilds

Paywallllllllll.

Rfieldbuilds

Hood, did someone get a car?

Rfieldbuilds

Its not a great design and easily broken. Especially on the lamps it seems. You’ll likely need some graphite packing ribbon or graphite packing rope to seal it back up.

Rfieldbuilds

Very nice!

Rfieldbuilds

That vase lamp is really cool.

Rfieldbuilds

Very nice.
I find it tragic that within the hobby we have no digital repository for these old catalogs. Thankfully some have been set aside at Classic Pressure Lamps.

Rfieldbuilds

Oh, the humanity!!! Better pray a couple hail mary's and take one for the team.

Rfieldbuilds

Its an oasis, and snow mountain is right there. Real pretty. Plus Humphrey LP lights in the bathrooms. Nice shady spot in the trees. Worth a look see on google earth.
You guys see any elk?

Rfieldbuilds

Yikes. Yes, that would get you home through rush hour riot traffic.

Rfieldbuilds

Congrats on the ringtail sighting. What a treat. Not many folks will ever see one outside the internet. Good country up there if not a little bony. This is about as late in the year as is typically comfortable up there for tent style camping. I’d like to revisit a Letts Lake campout one day. Its sur...

Oven bacon rules because you are cooking it long and slow enough to remove the extra moisture. Chefs trick for CRISPY bacon that is not burnt. True on the homemade thick stuff being the best. Its in its own category anyways. I’ll definitely suffer through a little less crispy than I like for some ho...

Well, to up the ante a little, this is what I received- a box apparently kicked from Falls Church VA all the way to California. Wish me luck as I get to opening it this weekend! 😂 Hopefully that UPS driver broke all 10 toes kicking it all this way!! https://i.postimg.cc/nLqkLvwt/3112-F1-D0-BD3-D-429...

What a lovely gathering that looked like. I’m sort of jealous thats 3000 miles away. Very nice setup you had there. My camp is usually chaos, punctuated by surplus. Always fun to bring the toys out.

Rfieldbuilds

They are bright, loud, and the shut down popping is less appealing than the satisfying slurp slurp slurp of a 220B.
I’ve little against these lanterns once I get the %#+$@ bail in place. A serviceable CV would have been nice, though I doubt these were really meant to last as long as they have.

Rfieldbuilds

Seems like you laid good tracks for a bigger one next go around.
Very well done!

Rfieldbuilds

Could be the globe was $10 at goodwill. But yes, people who price stuff with out research, or in spite of known fact are iditos.

Rfieldbuilds

Hello and welcome from Nor Cal.

Rfieldbuilds

Thats a fine how do you do. Good thing it didnt have fuele in it when that happened. There is a youtube vid of Sparky preheating a 237 with a torch when a genny gave way. Couldn't of happened to a nicer fellow. Fortunately the only thing hurt was his ego. Save that square nut.

Are we talking hair stripper or something else?

Hoop stress. Too bad.

In my opinion, the $30 is a great investment in yourself and your enjoyment of the hobby. More so if you are participating with a spouse or family.

I just found one last week on a 242A. There was nothing inside of mine, or if there was it had decomposed/burnt up as I had done 4-5 heat quench cycles before I was able to get it apart. I wrapped some 100 mesh screen around the pricker and stuck it back in. Still not running right but seems more P...

Rfieldbuilds

Just think how much better looking your lanterns will be!

Rfieldbuilds

Unless you have a decade old aircraft paint remover the new stuff is garbage. The old stuff had methyl chloride which actually worked. The new stuff is a waste of money. Keep your eyes peeled for aircraft stripper at garage sales and such. Hoard it like doomsday rations. Its really hard/impossible t...
