I’d love some fur. There is a reason it was so popular for so long. Its gorgeous and it works.

A couple of pics of the one I just found with the yellow paint. I’ll be keeping this steel tank to replace a cracked brass one on another AGM. No other markings I have found yet. I’ll give it one more look over before pulling it apart for the fount. https://i.postimg.cc/x1HBR8k9/17-DC2973-5-F79-493-...

Thank you for the info Randy. I see some truck/camper sites are open @$49 night. Just waiting to see what the weather in the mountains will do. It's one thing going out playing in the snow, another having to drive for hours thru storminess. Duane Yeah Duane, I assume you will take 99 down. Thats a ...

Duane, They mentioned being able to overflow into the adjacent day use area if we have more than 10 cars. I'm not concerned. I wouldn't be surprised if we had the group camp area to ourselves. I chose spot #4 because it looked to me as if it had the most paved parking area to accomodate day trippers...

OK. To make it easy, I wentr ahead and booked Group site #4 in the Sacramento Loop for all of us. I expect we can divide the total up, by the number of participants and cover the bill. I booked for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights 2/16-2/19/2023. Unit: Brannan Island SRA - Sacramento Group Camp...

Lynn,
I like the brass wool a lot. I've also wrapped it too tight getting same results. I think you have to play with it a bit. You'll get it. Let us know how it goes.

Rfieldbuilds

Ugggh. Well worth it even for that steel fount to restore a brassie with stress cracks. I have a similar one here I am saving for restorations. Love the Americans.

Rfieldbuilds

We might be pretty close to getting this off the ground since there is some more interest. Here's a picture of one from a 457G. It looks a bit different from the one in my first post. https://i.postimg.cc/t4QSwgSX/457-G-e-Bay-7.jpg I'll draft this one up, if I can and see how it looks next to the o...

Good trade bait for the Lewiston gathering too.

Well, that would be a blessing and a curse. In general, it would be great to see the world embracing something outside of a disposable society.

Give me thoughts on above. I can look at the group camp versus individual site options.

Guys. A little early to call it, but those roads have a couple flat spots where the water builds up. With the mess of rain we have had, and continue to have, I am a little concerned it’ll be a muddy trek in and out. I’m sure the road has suffered considerably since I was last up there in the snow. A...

Put you mantles on the mantel and no one gets hurt.

They can also negatively impact a garden if for instance you have a bunch of cherry tomatoes, then can decimate the ripe fruits pretty quickly. Rodents are also attracted when you have chickens so that may also be a consideration. Honestly though I think every home should have a cpl 2-3 chickens.

If it can wait til Monday I can hook you up. I’ve got one at work.

I’d like to find some hose that looks “period correct” for these.

Thats what got me into this. At present, the change process for a one off would be very expensive, but doable. PM me if you have further questions.

Cool pic! I suggest a poster be made of that.

Ok guys. Well the stove is at work so I cant fiddle with it til next week.

Under these conditions I wouldnt expect this occurrence. I did ...

Sordid tale with this one. Generator was a nightmare so I put a new one on. Still seems excessively yellow, and rather large at that. Any help with what should be expected flame size and color on these? I did back out all the pressure and added 4 pumps and got a nice blue flame. Just seems a little ...

Thx Duane.

I agree. I think I’d clean and polish the nasty rough patch and just use a standard pump. Dremel much?

You guys are master level ebay’rs for sure. I can tell because there are only tables scraps left when I look 👀 !!

This is the beat I could do. There are also caps that slice over ends of each pole to help with the color coordinate the assembly process. So there are red, yellow, and blues typically. https://i.postimg.cc/zDg1YmNH/C2925625-8815-4362-995-B-143-FFE01-FD2-C.png https://i.postimg.cc/zGpsF8C6/D15-ABA62...

Long shot I know. But I have an unfired stove and would like a NOS fuel tank to pair it with. This should be one of the newer gray painted fuel tanks with the “Lawyer cap” on the inside, rather than outside of the stove. If you have something close, PM me and lets talk. Thank You!

Consolidating power is what it looks like to me. More tech, less men. Ultimately you need trained men doing the dirty work. Just looks like more of whats been going on for some time.
