Superbe restauration d’un petit coin pour un café sur le pouce en pleine campagne ou en bord de route ou réchauffer un plat tout près. Îles vraiment dommage que nous ne faissions plus de tels objets utiles et pratiques
It's sad to think that something I grew up with is an antique, but then again, so am I, I guess!! They're outstanding stoves, along with the Optimus 8R, Svea 127 and the like!
12:05 pm Oh my goodness !!! Camping my whole life (75years) starting out in Germany as a child I remember my dad starting camping stoves !!! Scariest things ever !! When the initial flame finally died down and 6:08 6:22 the blue flame kicked in was a nerve racking experience in a tent lol What a super job you did!! BRAVO and I really like the music with your videos....... there's a rhythm to your working!!
My dad has one of these, I have fond memories of playing with it as a kid and using it when we went camping. I have to say though, his still has the optimus badge on it, and is very much that colour blue that the original was before you sandblasted it. I'm 95% sure it's never been repainted and hence was the original colour as well.
@@Amazingct2000restorations, you can see ruined wick in the tube at 3:00. It is better to preheat the burner using strong alcohol - it will keep the burner clean and extend service intervals. Finally I'm not sure, but it seems this stove was designed for kerosene.
Just FYI get some good video editing software. There are plenty of free ones out there. You music is way to loud. With video editing software you can lower the sound of the music. I have you turned down to 25% volume on RU-vid and maybe a third on my speakers and music is still way to loud.
