How many is too many?

Postby dmb90260 » Sat Feb 07, 2009 10:55 am

Doug seems to have too many lanterns but he has nothing compared to this guy.

You can start on page one and look at each of them or use this url and see them in racks.
He also has a number of shots of instructions for many of them.

I’ve got an idea – how about giving away those “old” lanterns to poor unfortunate campers who need one or two? I’m will to take the oldest obsolete model off you hands and give it a loving home

If you wander over to camp-cook, I think you'll see what Dennis collects... Although I don't think Dennis has as much as Matt... :o or even Dean...

i don't think there can be too many when you're a collector.

Hey Dennis...that guy does have a load of them! I only have 10! I also recognize a number of them as recent purchases off e-bay....He's currently a busy buyer and not all of it was inexpensive. I acquire more project lanterns/stoves, build one, look for another. I've only gotten 1 that was ready to use. It's all fun whatever anyone collects or putzes with. Doug

And that is exactly why I didn't visit a seller selling an entire collection of 150+ lanterns. I was afraid that I may have eventually bought half, if not all the lanterns offered. :lol: $10 per lantern was very tempting.

He can't be all bad. He's got a teardrop model on page one! Heck, he might be a forum member! :lol:
