Great stuff Doc. Here we have just one flea market in the area, not large, weeks go by and there is nothing of interest, then bingo something fun...
Hi Pete and all, good thread. It got me off the dime to try one of these, I choose the "Killer" as I liked the idea of a little stouter stove. It...
Isn't it edge burning on the wick material shown? One problem is that the "wick" isn't adjustable, but still and interesting project. Ed
