Hi Ross, Thanks for that. I've printed it out and it looks perfect and more than good enough to grace the now finished Valor. Cheers, John
Oh yes, that's a nice one as is the rest of the stove it's on. I needed the graphic for another stove which has led a harder life where it's...
Is there a decent copy of this anywhere please? [ATTACH] Cheers, John
I suspect you're sorted now but here's what I made as it may be of use others... The materials - one wire coat hanger (actually I needed two),...
No problem but it'll have to be tomorrow now. I'll knock something up using my 71 to model it and post some photos. Cheers, John
Before I became infected by the smell of paraffin I experimented with 'pop can' meths stoves (surprisingly effective and ridiculously easy to...
Thanks for the replies and words of encouragement guys. I've just ordered a pencil flame butane torch as I'm keen to have a go at the Valor myself...
