Coleman 413F 2-Burner Camp Stove. Most stoves, including this model, do not have a manufacturing date stamped on the case or the tank. This is one of the few models that came with the flip down lid support (RED) which flips over the backside of the lid and acts as a support to use the lid as a table or prep area. It is often called a “towel Bar”, and of course, it can be used for that purpose also. This model also has the more comfortable flat carry handle. The 2 steel feet just pull down and snap into place and easily retract, no tools needed. I found this stove in very sad looking condition. After inspection I determined that the case was actually in very good shape, with only a few small dents and some very light surface rust in a few places. It was was very filthy and greasy, and the paint was in poor condition. So, I completely disassembled it, scrubbed it out, and removed all of the light rust completely. The fuel tank was flushed several times with clean fuel. All of the parts and pieces were then inspected, cleaned, polished, repaired, or replaced as needed. After reassembly it was fully tested. Gaskets, seals, generator, pump, work as they should. It lights up fast and works very well. There are some small dings, etc, from 6 decades, but its a nice clean stove that works just as it should. Look at all of the photos. The photos show the exact stove you will receive. I enjoy rescuing these old stoves and lanterns, mostly Coleman. I completely disassemble them, hammer out dents, (NO Bondo) I remove all of the old cooked on gack, (food, oils, soot, etc), loose paint, and rust. I test everything for proper function and replace or repair parts as needed. After proper surface prep, I repaint with several coats of enamel paint. I polish the brass and stainless as needed. After reassembly the stove is fully tested with white gas. Its been repaired and repainted, but it still shows signs of its 60 plus years, and all of the coffee and food its cooked. Measures about 22″w x 13″d x 6h. Weighs about 14 lbs.
Oval Deep Fish Fryer w/ lid made by Columbus Iron Works. Inner dimensions of the fryer / bottom are approx. 11″ x 16-1/2″ x 3 deep. There are no cracks, breaks, etc. Bottom has a tic / tap on a hard / flat / level surface. Looks like it was used sparingly, so very clean, but old / used so there may be casting flaws, utensil marks, other signs of age / use, etc. It has not been used since the restoration process. Pictures were taken outside in natural light and are a big part of the description. Cleaned / seasoned / ready to cook. Neat set, little harder to find. I’ve restored hundreds of pieces of cast iron cookware. All go through lye to remove any crud, organic material, seasoning, etc. Then I run them through the electrolysis process to remove any corrosion, rust, impurities, etc. They are scrubbed by hand using dish liquid, stainless steel scouring pads, stainless steel brushes, and magic erasers under cold water to bring them back to the bare metal finish. Finally, all pieces are run through three rounds of seasoning using vegetable shortening. Cast iron cookware will last hundreds of years and generations if properly taken care of. These are beautiful, heirloom quality pieces made right here in the USA. Will be bubble wrapped and surrounded by packing material to ensure that they don’t shift in transit. They are not making cookware like this anymore, and I would consider it tragic if anything were to happen to these in transit. Just contact me before to make sure we can make arrangements that work for both of us and I’ll add the option to the listing. If you have any questions, need additional pictures, or anything else please message me. Thank you for viewing this listing.
