wiles cooker manual
Euan,
Is it a goer? I have a copy of the Wiles Cooker Manual that the late VMVC member Ray Davies put together some years ago. You may remember him, he had a full size Wiles cooker WW2 model and used to come to some of the GMRG re-enactment events and cook for us and the public. He did wonderful roasts and devonshire teas. Sadly he died and I don't know what ever happened to his cooker. I think it was the only complete one around, certainly the only one ever operating that I have ever seen. I remember finding a gutted one down in the Otways years ago that had been used as a field hut. It had been burnt out from a bushfire. The tyres had burnt off and it had been left there for some time. I told Ray and he got a set of wheels and recovered it. Don't know what happened to that either. His manual does have some references to the Junior
Cooker but I will have to check if it contains a manual.
