I've not heard of that Wim, I'll look for some. Found a supplier and ordered some to try.
I've got a new large knifemaking kiln due next week that also opens up the possibility of doing my own enamelling. I wondered if anybody has any...
Yes I spotted that and ordered one.
Ha ha I think you're right. It is much thinner and a slightly different colour. I think I'd better stick to stoves where I know what I'm doing...
Useful info, I wasn't aware the pips had been reintroduced. Thank you.
My other 300, dated 1942, also has a solid collar, so I suspect it was common for these lanterns to be made up of any available parts. [ATTACH]...
Unfortunately not, bought in present condition. However being unpainted it has the advantage of passing the wife approval test - meaning it will...
I don't think so but it occurs to me it has the solid collar introduced in 1944 not the slotted collar an early Vapalux should have. So possibly a...
I'm guessing this dates from around 1940/41. I have a 1942 model 300 but by then there was no pressure pip and the tank was steel. What always...
You have to keep a fairly close on German auction sites and prices have sky rocketed in recent years. I'm more of a stovie so I don't know how its...
I bought a 665 from fellow collector Paul Hindley and I remember him showing me this lovely 615. Well he contacted me in October last year to say...
I've posted the lantern in several Coleman groups and to date no one has seen one but then most of them are either in the US or Canada....
This 228 has an unusual metal (lead?) label attached on the base. By wetting the label it can be read 'IMPORTE DES ETATS-UNIS D'AMERIQUE. I don't...
@David Shouksmith thank you David - I'll remember that. @scl @newfie yes I was extremely fortunate my friend let this one go.
@Tony Press ah OK, thanks Tony.
Really sorry admin but I should have listed this under Canadian 241As. Is it possible to move it?
A fellow UK Coleman collector let this one go from his collection. I'm very grateful. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Now wouldn't that be nice. :D/
You lucky man Mike I looked for an age, with no luck, for an original E41. One reason in the end I decided to buy the Korean made version. However...
Thank you for the kind comments. The Vapalux E41 is one of the Korean made lamps. The quality is exceptional.
