    @svengj

    It would be good to see this stove as a separate entry in the Reference Gallery.

    Do you have more photos?

    Cheers

    That is very nice.
    I also would not fire it.

    You can buy the spare jets and restrictor tube to complete the stove from Base Camp.

    Hey. I'm from Ukraine. I have been working on modifications of Optimus in the Soviet Union for a long time: PT-1, PT-2. I very much want to buy Optimus 111. I think that this model has collected the best of the history of Optimus. I am very happy for your successful purchase.
