    @Nicola Francesco Elia Brilliant restoration of a really outstanding stove this is one of the most ornate stoves out there, for example the filler cap and the flame plate the detailing is just crisp and superb, i would imagine when this was new it was probably one of the most expensive stoves on the market.
    Another brilliant stove to you amazing collection

    Received the little endoscope (toy). Very hard to give it the wanted direction inside the tank. By accessing from the filler cap, the position of the pump tube makes impossible to take a shot of the NRV, so sorry for now @igh371 :)

    I was able to take a shot of the feed tube that is connected at the bottom center plug, that, if not a tank reinforcement, probably can be removed to access and clean the feed tube or tank:

    Very interesting construction detail @Nicola Francesco Elia, it seems to serve to reinforce the tank bottom and secure the bottom of the riser making for a very rigid assembly.

    Whether it easily unsolders for maintenance is anyones guess!
