Default It figures...........

I no sooner finished replicating the heat shields for both my Coleman stoves when on Saturday I find 2 more stoves and they are complete with heat shields!
I went through a lot of trouble making them but the nice thing is I now have originals and I no longer have to look for valves & generators for the ones I have. In fact the one good stove doesn’t have a dent in it anywhere! The other dented one will be for parts to complete my stove with the warning plate strapped to the tank. It just proves if you look long enough, the parts eventually show up!
I even found an aluminum Wartime dated mess tin that I have been wanting to find for some time now. Only the large outer one but I’ll be hunting for the inner one! The looking never ends!
