Hi All

On my recent trip we visited family in Graaf-Reinette.I walked passed a antique/pawn shop and saw this camp stove.
I just could not resists.I have not seen one like this before and can not find much info.What I do get is that it seems that primus liked the yellow colour in the 1970-1980's
I got a new hose and replaced the jets and is working really well.It is nice and compact and I like the way they designed the "wind screens".

Daar het jy dit, vir lank het ek gedink ek is die enigste een wat hierdie stofie het in hierdie land. Soos ek op die foto kan sien, is joune nog in 'n goeie kondisie. Ek moes nou die dag myne bietjie restoureer want na jare se gebruik het hy sleg gelyk.

Welkom by die klub van hierdie besondere stofie, jy sal dit geniet en nie spyt wees dat jy dit gekoop het nie.

Vind nou net uit dat ons stofie is omtrent 60 jaar oud, dus kom hierdie stofie uit die jare 50s. Ja, hulle het darem goeie goed gebou in die ou dae.

Ja ons het hierdie stofie van my vroutjie se ouma ge-erf. Hulle was groot kamp mense. Ek het ons sin gemodify om permanent deel te wees van die canopy.

Nice little camping stove. A hunting friend of ours has exactly the same and he's very happy with it - if I'm not mistaken, his has a carry handle for when it's folded up in it's 'suitcase' form. He also had to replace the hoses a few months back.

Ja Andy, jy is reg. Dit het ook 'n knip aan beide kante wat die deksel toehou en as jy dit los knip word dit sommer 'n voetstuk.

There used to be a gas shop in Bellville, opposite Sanlam head office that sold them, bought mine there years ago, not sure if the shop is still there. The wind shield works really well.

Ek restoureer al lank die Primus stofies en gebruik die een as ons gaan kamp. Hy het sy eie 2 klein gas silinders wat binne-in die stofie pas. Ongelooflike lekker stofie en wind pla hom niks. Hulle was gebruik in die Ratels en in die 60's en vroee 70's as 2 man stofies in die SADF gebruik. Ek is tans besig om 2 enkelplaat en 2 dubbel plaat stofies te restoureer. EN ek kry nie die fotos gelaai nie!
