Coleman Liquid Fuel

[Shran]

Nobody has any new Coleman gear? This thread slowed down so much.

I picked up a two burner Dual Fuel stove a couple weeks ago for $15, looks like it was used once to test function and then put away... in wet conditions. Weird small rust spots on the lid, lots of dirt and a bunch of dents. Cleaned up good and runs great though!

I've passed on a couple 3 burner stoves recently - one that was so gross that it never would have come clean... and the other was almost as gross. I think people just let them get dirty and throw them out. My buddy does that with propane grills... once they start dripping grease, it's time to get a new one.

220E and a old gold tank 425 are my latest

Prices continue to be goofy around me...

I've found you have to be looking to find it. I swore off looking while we were trying to get ready to downsize.

I miss a good garage sale and a trip to the flea market. Maybe this summer I'll try to pick a couple antiques. I really do miss it.

Fun fact: for whatever reason wally world has the four packs of Coleman mantles on clearance for $. 94 again.

I despise wally world but I might make a stop just for that.

Not on sale at either of my local stores. Lots of other camping stuff on clearance though.

Thanks for the info, I picked up a few boxes from a few local wally worlds

Reckon they're restocking their camping stuff for the summer or something? I haven't looked close at their clearance lately, they seem to be mighty proud of that shtuff these days

Stove and lantern are exactly what we used camping in the 60's and they worked just fine.

Brought another one back. Swap meet find from a year ago. Going to be kind of a hard luck looking guy, I have a really nasty vent that matches the fount I am going to put on it.

Beautiful night so I had multiples going and even make Mac and cheese outside. Not super impressed with the temp control on the 533 though.

They talked about high winds and thunderstorms tonight so I did the right thing and put all the vehicles inside and topped off two coleman lanterns. They were low to the point of starting to pulse the other night so it needed done anyway.

And here I sit in the dark waiting for the power company with my favoritist $2 cl2.

Strangest wind ever. Really hard for like 10-15 minutes. My yard is full of corn husks and stalks from my field which has never happened before.

I hope it doesn't get severe. What's a cl2 ?

A early 288. Small frame dual mantle. This one was made 6/85.

Staying at the lake this weekend, making some biscuits & gravy on my old Canadian stove.

Had family over for a celebration of life kinda sorta last night. Had three lanterns running for area lighting so people could get from the fire pit to the house and had the ol' 413 burning to toast buns and warm up mac and cheese.

Homemade mack and cheese hadn't showed up yet in this picture.

220J closest, then 290 dual fuel and then my trusty CL2.
