Vintage Optimus 8R Part 2 - She Is Really Dirty - Will she clean up? Let's find out! 

ROCK N ROLL

This is going to be awesome 👌

Im headed to bed , will catch back up Robert !

Oh wow i just dug one of these out of my dads hiking gear and all she needed was a touch of lube on the seals and i was surprised that 10 pumps on that had a solid burn for well over 20 minutes.

Sweet, great job

Looks great now man well done

Always nice to see it come to life in your hands man! What type fuel does that burner use. Thus is the first time I see an old burner like this?

Don't worry too much about the pot rests fatiguing. They get annealed every time you use the stove.
