    Thanks GD, I really like that CLX as well, I just missed a CL1 single burner off c-list a couple weeks ago, I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for another though......o_O

    There was another much nicer 426 for $75, I came close to buying it, then found the $2 one and snagged it instead, I just want a user, not a collectors piece, so this one will do just fine, this is also the same big flea market I scored my now sold and hard to find L227 last year......:)

    I did see another clean 275 at the flea this morning, but passed as it was the early problematic one......;)

    Today's take at the same flea as yesterday, NOS 228F in box, A "transitional 220E", and another 220F for parts, that's enough money out for this year.....:)........:makeitrain" IMAG0225 (2).JPG IMAG0227 (2).JPG

    It's near impossible to find 'em in nice shape around here,,I've gotta' few recent scores that need fettled which will probably wait until cooler weather.

    Yep, these three burners are the way to go, enough room for the cast iron skillet with room left over for a coffee pot or a side dish!.......:)........was also on the look out for a Coleman "Grillin' Griddle" while at the big flea with no luck, happened to get an email from ebay yesterday that the seller lower the price considerably on one I was watching, I snapped it up as well!, these are also very nice, not sure why Colman discontinued making/selling them, stoked to have one head'n my way!.......:D 00707_kThvGLgLM23_1200x900.jpg

    These are nice if the power goes out, makes lighting my GPA's much easier rather than trying to light them in the dark, then shutting down the battery powered jobs, found a twin tube at a yard sale last summer for a buck, and just recently bought a CPX 6, it can really get bright! 160879590_-coleman-5355-700-fluorescent-2-light-camping-lantern-.jpg s-l1600 (66).jpg
