Default Gengas

Thank you Bill!

The gengas period is quite interesting. I would like to see a few of the ads for different systems. Sweden does not have much oil. During the WW 2 years even the use of wood was restricted.

There were restrictions on everything. Meat, eggs, soap e t c.
I remember that restrictions on coffee was lifted in 1948.

I think you made a good translation, because in Swedish gengas is short for generatorgas which originally was used in iron steelmills.

There was a similar system using carbide (see picture below).
