Haven't touched it since I hung it up there a couple years ago. Went to put something else up and found this. [ATTACH]
If you actually use the lantern for camping the safes are known to accumulate water (even though they have a rubber gasket) and cause rust on the...
Take a look at Old Coleman Parts
A vise, a workmate type workbench or some similar way to hold the valve is going to be necessary. If you have a couple of C clamps and a small...
Les, I don't know if the new CV tool comes with instructions or not. I bought mine from the original maker many years ago. According to him the...
