Nice! It's more fun if you don''t let it pre-heat so it just spit streams of flaming fuel, haha.

@RetroHax 6 лет назад

Haha, Yes I saw your one lol, I don't think your missus was too impressed though lol

@Thecrazytv3 Год назад

Can I use disal or petrol in this

@brianlopez8855 2 года назад

No nauseating and pointless narration and gurning at the camera, just clear and speedy camera shots and lighting. Great sound too. I am about to buy one of these old tin cans.

@bonusnudges 9 месяцев назад

I’ve just got one of those, I’ve discovered Sheen are still in business and all parts are available. I bought a service kit for mine that comprises of all of the seals, new wick , one way valve and special spanner

Great Restore Martin as always. Bit undecided on the silence as you impart so much knowledge as you go along. There's always banter which is good. All the family enjoy watching your videos, and tbh we will always watch your videos with or without sound, whatever you choose. Just keep making them as you have an avid following.

@jackfairweather199 6 лет назад

Beautiful job (as usual) Martin. Mow Mow Man strikes again! I have a patio made out of brick pavers that I could use that on. Of course, I'd probably need to get out the old pressure washer to take care of the soot after I used it!

Hi Martin, i'm a first time commenter but long time viewer since the gardening days, i have say you are a master of repair and restoration, there seems to be nothing that you cant turn your hand too or willing to tackle, I love the informative videos on all your channels, keep up the exceptional work, all the best, Richard.

@RetroHax 6 лет назад

Hi Richard, wow that's a long time ago I did the gardening vids, Glad you are still enjoying the vids bud. Cheers Martin

Hello Martin. I just can't help but watch your videos. I always give you a thumbs-up or like before I even watch the video because I know how good it's going to be. Keep up the good work, and as always, be safe.

Nice restoration. Scary to use. Many sheds and a few houses were burned down with these.

@martinhew981 5 лет назад

Awesome

@AB-dq5qd 5 лет назад

Hi, my Dad had one of these, with which I used to keep the driveway clear of weeds. They always grew back though. There should be a metal cover which hinges on the two brackets sticking up on top of the burner shield. Once the burner was up to temperature, the cover was hinged up and over the top of the burner to cover the flame shooting out of the front and contained the generated heat over the ground being treated.

@pigpen3499 5 лет назад

I always love your videos, I've said this before and you've always thanked me but they are so relaxing to watch. Also on a side not its too bad we dont have more of these in the states. Im 37 and never seen anyone around here use them. With the massively contaminated rivers, from the chemical weed killer run off leading to high cancer rates, ect. Its to bad we dont use this technique more often. But then again im just a guy from Iowa so what do I know😉. Anyways great video sir thank you.

@RetroHax 5 лет назад

Thanks Lee, I sold the ones I restored but I now need one as I'm over run with weeds in my garden lol

@paulbaker2959 6 лет назад

Not seen one of them in years, they light on a similar principle to the Tilley lamp :)

@AutoAddictuk 5 лет назад

@MikeG-fo1lb 5 лет назад

Bloody beautiful ! I remember as a little boy in the 60's watching my dad using his "Baring" flame thrower. What are the two lugs on top of the burner muzzle and do you think the decals would have been handed so they both pointed forward Mike

@onewheelnut 5 лет назад

The LUGS are for fitting an optional "hood" which help keep the flames in a narrower area when a little windy

@paulelliott2861 6 лет назад

You clever bugger looks great. What was the red 🔥 lighter called? And the grease? A job well executed. O who did the labels?

@RetroHax 6 лет назад

It's just white waterproof grease Paul. the red wick was just some exhaust heatproof tape I had laying about.

@405_hive Месяц назад

Great video, where on earth did you get the stickers ?

@billywhizz98 6 лет назад

Good restoration but would prefer you doing a running commentary as and when what you are doing and what you have to do

@RetroHax 6 лет назад

This is a different style of restoration vid. The other channel will stay the same for me talking.

@freesaxon6835 4 года назад

Great...... But we're did you get that transfer to finish it off so nicely ?

I made it

@petefroud5308 6 лет назад

Nice job Martin old school weed removal.

@heru-deshet359 5 лет назад

Beautiful, but that's a weed burner and not an actual flame thrower.

@MsRmaclaren 5 лет назад

We had one of those. Used kerosene in it.

@professionalidiots101 6 лет назад

We use ours on the allotments, paraffin is way too expensive so we use kerosene (heating oil) way cheaper. We experimented with Diesel but it was too difficult to keep running. Next thing we knew we were asked for advice from another allotment holder who had one......."Can I run mine on Petrol??"... 😱 It's a good job we like him and quickly said "Only if you want to die!" LOL 😄

@duncanadkinson9293 5 лет назад

@Cubrider 6 лет назад

When I started watching I thought Christ he's gone too far this time, he's never going to get that working. But credit were credit is due. I would have like an explanation how it works though. I'm guessing that was a sort of wick but do you have to keep pumping the pressure up and what's the coil for?

@RetroHax 6 лет назад

The coil is there so it can heat up a lot of fluid around the heat source just like in a hot water tank.
