(Never mind I havent thought of any yet )

You know it has a galvanized tank that is in mint condition! Working in the metal industry I see the galvanized crap we have today and they must have done things differently 100 years ago when they galvanized things. There's not a bit of rust on that stove or tank.

That boiler makes that Bucket-A-Day water heater look teeny tiny! Search for "bucket a day" on here and you'll find out even more about heating water with coal.

yeah. That was a rough unit. I figured you would really find a gem. But instead you found something that was violated to burn OIL!!!

Oh well. Sometimes one man's junk is also another man's junk.
