    IMG_20230215_154027331.jpg I present a stove, soldering iron and soldering lamp ( depending on the configuration) called Oganiok powered by gasoline.
    I bought the set as unused, complete with spare parts, key and pricker. IMG_20230215_153513363.jpg
    IMG_20230215_153626884.jpg Let's focus on the stove.
    Its gun-shaped body is also the fuel tank. The filler is located in the Bakelite handle.
    The flat back of the tank, allows you to put the device in an upright position, and the recess around the burner is used to priming with spirit to create adequate pressure ( there is a wick in the tank).

We attach three rods to the plate, which is also a heat shield and a pot stand.
    Now you can fire it up. IMG_20230215_155108054.jpg
    IMG_20230215_155811561.jpg IMG_20230215_155609600.jpg It seems to me that the distance from the bell to the pot is a little too short.
    I bought the device in pristine condition, but my curiosity took over.

    Pretty clever... Take a break off from plumbing and brew yourself a cuppa.

    @Knee Ronson had the idea first (I think) with their butane Camp ‘n Cook blowtorch/stove.

    Thanks @gnome . @PWDolkas :lol: . @presscall Thanks John. Very interesting Ronson camp 'n cook project. It presents itself very modern. Cosmic even, for the 1960s.Great material.
    Perhaps, Soviet engineers modeled on this idea.
    The supply of gasoline ( readily available) and the rather simple solution with the heat shield acting as a pot stand is, it must be said, not a bad idea. Although, as I noted, the distance from the burner bell to the bottom of the pot is a bit too small.

    John:
    I used to have one of those Ronson torches about 40 years ago. I used it to apply tar and wax to my X-C Skis. Also applying solder to connections.
    I may still have the burner head -- somewhere -- but I don't think the cartridges are available anymore.
    Never had the steel kit box, just a styrofoam block that slipped into a cardboard jacket. [I doubt the cardboard exterior still exists.]
    And I didn't have the cookstand, I preferred to use my Svea 123 for that. Also it never ocurred to me to use the Svea for torching the skis.
