Wiles Junior Cooker
These are pictures of a Wiles Junior Cooker I purchased from a fellow MLUer a few years ago with the intention of restoring it. Whilst largely complete its condition was very poor with much of it rusted beyond recognition. They are very basic in design so fabricating much of the componentry is fairly straight forward.

In searching for information on these cookers, a better and complete cooker popped up on ebay at a good price so I bought that. It was fully operational and had been regularly used by its previous owner. It was however fitted with an incorrect axle, wheels and had been retrofitted with vacuum brakes. The chassis had been modified and reinforced as these cookers suffered from a weakness in the chassis design.

I have used this cooker a number of times including club events at my property at Amphitheatre. Jake did some nice roast ducks in it last year. My steam pudding was not quite the fluffy success I was after but it was still edible. The VMVC President Rod Mills provided the perfect wood truck with his Mule.
