Many thanks for the info Trevor. The company who supplied me with the
bottle went out of business some eight years ago. This burner is going
to be a vertical one. While checking prices of wood burning stoves on
ebay, one caught my eye at =A329.95. It was a gas bottle with an upper
and a lower door. Thats where the idea came from. Regards Pete
