Ha!

One for the Element. One for the teardrop. One for home.

Just got it covered.

Unless it surprises me in performance, I'd probably let the Thermette go. It's ungainly, the largest of them. I was drawn to buy it because it is copper.

And I would be prepared to negotiate for a price reflecting the Thermette's ungainly size, used condition, and unfortunate copper construction! ;-)

a better shot showing the entire stove..it burns
unleaded gas or Coleman fuel..hard to find now they
are more of a collectors item.i use this one on canoe
trips as a second stove for boiling water. i have been
told the flask has a cork rather than a screw top to
prevent blow-ups..



For those who are interested in such things, I started a thread more directly concerned with the very interesting but oddball Borde stove.
