It's been a long day and I'm tired but I've a big smile on my face. Here's a couple of pictures that should explain my silence.
Above, my finished Coleman 425E. I completed this project about twenty minutes ago. Her tank is all tucked (nestled) in her bed of newspaper. After all the work I've put into her I'm not about to scratch the finish.
Here's proof she works. This is her secondary burner with a beautiful blue flame. I said a long prayer when I lit her as I had to completely rebuild her tank. This is the stove rescued from the flood.
Okay, enough.
I promise to answer all your kind comments tomorrow morning. All I want now is a nice hot shower, a cup of coffee then a nice long nights sleep.
I'll write a long post tomorrow, too. I've a few pictures from our groups work day out at our bug out location.
Until then, good night.
Stephen
