Hi yes the Scandia oven was cast in perth i think they went bust in the late 60s or early 70s
I will find out the next few days as my dads mate worked there and he is a bit of a historian

That information would be great to have Eddy.

I noticed the Scandia's in the photos are legless, were they manufactured with legs?

SJ, yes the ovens did have legs, A little bit longer then Furphys stubs, the small one that I have as had the legs cut off, but the 14 inch is still intact

The Foundry is also mentioned in another copy of the "WESTERN AUSTRALIAN INDUSTRIAL GAZETTE" Schedule list of respondents dated Oct,1977.

Hmmmm, looks like the Scandia Foundry was still operating in late 1977
