    Hi All, The stove needs restoration. Paint would be good and a cleanup of the brass too. As I said I think it could do with a new wick. I think that someone has tried to replace it with mop fibre. I picked it up as a project but got a nicer shiney Primus and never got round to it...

    My offer for any stove geeks (like me) is an Optimus R8 for restoration. It has lit and run but I think the wick is a bit past its sell by date. ATB, Don

    Soyer stove?
