    Thread Hi jack apologies

    @Nicola Francesco Elia you have a Phoebus 30 bun foot does it have an external NRV or is that just a parking boss for the storage cap?
    Cheers Nick

    Optimus #1
    External NRV on the side
    Reserve cap on top
    Only thing missing is two of the collared legs.
    I love big buns
    I think I have one like this already. I might have sell one

    @Doug L
    Doug, if you decide to pass this stove on, I'm interested. I have a bunfoot #1 which lacks a burner and 1 collared leg.
    Sincerely,
    James Walter

    I have enough projects to keep me busy for a while so I may let this go.
