Keep in mind that 'Flamme Bleue' means 'blue flame'. If the flame's yellow and sooty, you've turned up the wicks too high. They need to be trimmed flat, and adjusted so the flame is as blue - or blue with red tips as possible.
I was just about to comment that "hey, the flame isn't blue!", but that was really just to make a facetious joke. It is correct, though, that a yellow flame means an inefficient burn, and could be helped by trimming the wick. Thank you to @TheFabrik for sharing this beautiful restoration.
That was simply a fantastic restoration! I was impressed with the fabrication of new parts and how you saved the old ones. Thanks for sharing this incredible tutorial.
@@TheFabrik buddy what a marvellous restoration.piece of advice dont try cut small pieces of glass it rarely works.i enjoyed your work very much all the best from UK...
@@TheFabrik Question Do you do this for a hobby or do pleople pay you for Restoring old Items like this because I just do Restore anything if pleople Paid you to do for anyone? Because I love old things And how were they made ! Sincere yours Patrick frawley Doylestown pennsylvania usa
That was an amazing piece... 8bmean talk about 2 birds with 1 stone. Whilst camping you can have light, cook an keep the kettle hot..an a bit of warmth depending on situation...!!
You are an absolute creative genius in the 1960s my mum and I used to go to jumble sales they were filled with all kinds of old lamps we got an old heating stove and I repainted it but nothing like you did its truly wonderful to see these practical works of arts given new life .there is something so cosy and safe in them that i love seeing it brings back so many memories thank you again for creating these wonderful memories
These old stoves are super cool. I ended up with a smaller 2 wick sad iron heater/stove. Just cleaned mine up and replaced the mica and wicks, but yours turned out just gorgeous. The time you must have spent on it and the detail were totally worth it. Amazing job!
That "glass" was actually translucent Mica. Before heat-resistant glass was created, it was frequently used where a heat-resistant "window" was needed. It is still available through places that specialize in antique stove and lantern restoration. It is hard to find, but it is out there.
Lab stores still sell it. Its used a lot in soft matter I know since you can peel it apart with a razor blade and get a nearly atomically flat surface, compared to glass at least.
Je vois qu’il y a des changements dans le style de vidéo et c’est très bien! Tu as même eu l’audace de nous montrer tes mains! Mais au-delà de cela, c’est toujours un vrai bonheur que de découvrir une nouvelle rénovation! Toujours autant bluffé et ébahi par tant de travail! Je m’incline 🍾👏👏👏
Ещё раз хочу выразить вам своё восхищение! Какая прекрасная вещь получилась, у нас её называли примус или керогаз, они были в оби́ходе до 1960 года. И сейчас когда бывает поломка в электросети может накормить семью. Честь и хвала мастеру - золотые руки! Привет из Санкт Петербурга!
Quel travail de titan !!! chapeau bas ! On est scotchés devant une telle restauration. Tout y est : un travail de pro qu'on a peine à imaginer, un peu d'humour, une ambiance, une manière de filmer, bravo monsieur et merci pour votre talent. On attend vos vidéos avec impatience...
Amazing! I truly had a hard time believing that this could end up being so beautiful. Few people would have even thought of restoring the stove. This shows you are a true artist and craftsman.
When I started seeing this video I was convinced that this could never be a working piece again. But you did an amazing restoration. Beautiful piece. Thank you for sharing this with us 👍❤️
Magnifique ! L'ancêtre de la "mêche", que l'on utilisait en maison d'arrêt entant que gazinière ou chaudron pour cuire ou chauffer les plats, jusque dans les années 90-2000, les plaques chauffantes y etaient interdites a cette epoque ! Bravo pour la restauration de la "flamme bleue", j'ai aimé la video
I like the "Easter Egg" about how "Flamme Bleue" is similar to "Flambeau." En Français, "Blue Flame" Sounds similar to "Torch." You did a great job. I am impressed.
Bonjour TheFabrik, J'écris en français, car en regardant vos vidéos, je vois pas mal de matériel que l'on peut trouver en France ! J'ai visionné beaucoup de vos vidéos. Toutes aussi intéressantes les unes que les autres ! Elles m'ont donné envie de m'y mettre et je viens juste de restaurer une vieille voiture métal, avec moins de moyen et moins de compétences que les vôtres, mais le résultat est pas trop mal ! Et transformé un modèle métal et plastique en une réplique de mon ancien van, qui n'existait pas en modèle réduit. On n'est plus là sur de la restauration, mais c'est en regardant vos vidéos que j'ai trouvé des idées et la motivation ! Donc un grand merci et continuez ! C'est génial !
Bonjour Yves et merci pour votre commentaire !! Je suis ravi de pouvoir donner des trucs et astuces et également de donner de l'inspiration pour les autres.
L'ancêtre des réchaud a gaz utilisé en camping, ils faisaient de beaux objets fonctionnel a cette époque! belle restauration, ce petit réchaud le méritais!
Если честно, я в успех не верила! Но то что вы делаете талантливо нереально! Какая красивая и функциональная вещь получилась, а главное она работает! Браво!
thank you for being decent about the sand blasting, some people on youtube, sandblast in all crazy directions leaving patches behind they have to go back over, i must have OCD, i cannot watch people sandblast like a psychopath with no order or logical direction, i prefer it much better if they sandblast parts like here in this video :) (i just noticed this vid is 2 years old, oh well)
Thank you for this video shot with much love for the detail. Absout beautiful to watch, not only on a winter evening in December. Many greetings from Hamburg🙂
