    Interesting stove...it looks huge...powerful? I imagine these stoves use kerosene?

    Nice flame.

    @InspectorGadget

    If you mean the stove in my photos just posted, the burner is from a Primus 2-burner furnace stove No. 733 like this one:

    Primus No.733. 1947

    In the photos above, I’m testing the burner while it’s attached to a Hipolito stove as I’m still fettling the 733.

    The burner takes the standard Primus-type No. 1 or 5 nipple with a 0.32mm jet and, yes, it’s kerosene.

    Theoretically it has the same heat output as a standard Primus-type No.1 stove but the construction of the burner and the flame tube concentrate the flame in a column. Plus, I’ve put a fair bit of pressure into the tank.

    Cheers

    Tony

    Test firing a Primus 733 after heavy fettling (especially the burners).

    I’m glad I got this going as well as I have, but I doubt the burners will stand up to heavy work. They were quite worn and needed patching by silbrazing.

    Cheers

    After making an expensive, stupid mistake with my Coleman 404, I worked on my other Coleman suitcase (a 411) and managed to get it going.

    Thank you for your generosity is providing the flame plate for this stove.
