Cooking

Post by Kevinbwilko » Sun Jul 11, 2010 12:10 pm

Hi, after spending ages looking at prices I decided to buy a single burner gas cylinder cooker for under £20 with 8 cannisters. All sorts of offers on ebay! Some people have said about dangers etc. I keep gas cylinder in gas bottle holder in rear locker until needed.

Yes I have put in the Origo double burner. 2000? I think is the model numer. It is really excellent, but no grill of course.
I trimmed down the midships end of the old cooker housing and screwed in a varnished platform with fiddles to take the new cooker, it is a tad wider than the original gas one.
I have not screwed down the actual hob because it needs to open at rear hinges for removing the burners for filling.I lift it out of its fiddles for this operation.


Compass had the best price at the time, last summer.
