Antique SVEA 123 Cookstove

An older SVEA stove that was given to me

Very cool stove! And the fact that it was passed down to you makes it even better!!

[@BAILEYWOODWORKS]

Very cool! I love that old stuff! They figured how to do it without all the fancy electricity and stuff!

Looks like it would be a literal pain to start in very cold weather.

If you use the hand method to warm the gas maybe but most people just pour a little bit of white gas on it and light it which works in all types of conditions

Nice hand hand me down! I just found a 123R in the same box for $3 at Goodwill on President’s day. Any plans to clean it up? I’m going to try out Brasso to refurbish mine.

I didn’t clean the brass up but I did clean the jets out better and it worked 100% better after that... I used carb cleaner
