New hobby/addiction

Rebuilt and polished up this nice '57 220E last night. First time I've seen one here in NZ. Came with this aftermarket tin case, some silklites and the original manual. Hardly been used I'd say.

Fired up the 237 to make sure it is ready for action. We got a big storm headed this way.

Looking good! Just got my tornado watch notification for tonight. Got my stream light charged and ready in case I gotta find my way out of a mess. Best of luck to all of us!

We're having the classic Kentucky late spring of monsoon rains one day and blistering heat the next. The twisters haven't made an appearance yet, but they will.

Not exactly the centerpieces of my collection but some hard to find items especially the electric lantern, one of only 246 produced by long time Coleman employee Jim Nichols.

I wonder how @WillG is doing? He hasn't appeared to have logged in for a while.

I enjoyed his repair shop exploits.
