    Yan writes "These Russian stoves are very common in Turkey. In every flea market you can get one around 3-5 U.S. dollars. The one pictured here is a family size big stove (silent burner) with bucket like casing for high volume cooking. It is written "Touristic Primus" on the cover of users manual and I think its name is pronounced something like "schmelb". Inside the manual boiling performance and etc. explained. A spare parts box comes with it, containing spares like o rings, burner jet etc"

    I posted the photos of this stove many years ago and did not visit this forum since then. It is very nostalgic to see the photos again because the food spills (you can see in the photos) remembered me the camp when we cooked with this stove with a friend of mine.

    Regards.
