    Excellent restoration!

    The stove looks great :D
    Very high on the list of must finds

    My collection started with 2 burner Primus gassies of the 60s and 70s...
    As soon as I discovered pressure stoves the 22b jumped straight to the top of my list of 2 burners to find and rescue
    The search continues..... :content:
    Nice work!

    Thanks for sharing

    Regards
    Scott B

    Nice resto. What color and brand paint is that? I have some rusty-cased 8Rs I need to blast.
