Perfect!
It's going to live out its life on a farm in Northern Minnesota, starting Summer, 2018!
It will be well-cared-for, and only by those that know how to!
I wish to give far more than a song!

I'll stop by in the next 2 weeks Pop.
In the meantime, i've been packing up my lanterns; I've got it down to my favorite 50. Had to make an assembly line outta the process. No doubt I'll do a better job than the gorillas.
All the glass gets double boxed, lanterns emptied, wrapped in bubble wrap then they swim in an pool of peanuts. Short of the crusher, they should survive.
The garage no longer holds a vehicle.

'Datsa' lotta' green!
So now you're down to fifty? I know you made a lot of Blue-n-Gold, so I'm guessing you had a LOT more at one time!
And to think, some folks drink for a hobby. Others rebuild old Fords.
Whood'a thunkit?

Had a gallon of old RUG and old CF that smelled like terpentine. Gotta get rid of it before the move and didn't want to run it thru the Ford. Filled a gallon in the HGP and I was amazed it ran 3 hrs on the low setting. Pic is of the HGP full throttle.

I have a couple of coleman two burner stoves that I use mostly to smelt range lead for another of my hobbies, reloading 45 auto. I use unleaded pump gas, but avoid anything with ethanol in it as it will cause problems. I also add Stabil to it to avoid varnish etc. I've used pump gas in my stove and lantern for years without problems once lead was no longer added to gasoline.
I enjoy muzzleloading and have a number of rifles and handguns. I'm currently working on two rifles from parts kits. These are not the sand, varnish and slap together kits.
