I have finally got my lipstick vapouriser working how I want, so now I am ready to post the stove here in the Gallery: The stampings on the tank were not very good in places: The stove had a few dings, which was one of the reasons I didn't polish it hard... I'm hoping the gentle clean and getting rid of the black corrosive stains and verdigris will allow it to develop a bit of patina. Note the large crease in the bottom of the tank: I replaced the moulded pip with one from The Fettle Box: So, after fettling the lipstick vapouriser, and finally rounding the jet properly with a needle from an Optimus 111, it's running like a train. It boiled 1.25 litres of cold water in 8 minutes and 57 seconds... I like this stove. I'm looking to build a box to transport it around. Cheers Tony
A beautiful stove – there might be a few dings, but she wears them proudly. It is always good to see a stove getting a second life by the hands of a good Fettler. All the best, e
Glad to see it running proper, same style as my younger 100. I bought a BernieDawg flame plate for my older 100 as it only came with the silent burner, runs so pretty, making the plate nice and red. Duane
very nice Tony, just picked up one of these last weekend, now I need a burner for it kind regards Jan
Hi Jan, it can be a challenge finding a burner bell and flame-plate for these old No.100 stoves. However if you want to run it in the meantime, you might consider this fix:
