about a year ago I bought a fancy little hanging lamp, the pictures were mostly promising and apparently it was unfired. After the lamp arrived, the disappointment was already great because of the money paid: This is beyond my capabilities. After some back and forth, a lamp friend took pity on me to solder the tank, Thanks Thomas. After passing the pressure test, the tank came back. Some paint on it and I had about 15min of pleasure from the lamp. In many different places the tank was leaking due to rust holes. Then I punished the part first by disregard and banished a few months in the far corner of the workshop. A new attempt in the new year, once sandblasting and then find: I can not solder iron! During a Corona-compliant work visit in Thuringia, it finally worked out. All I can say is: If you have the possibilities and the skills (Thank you Jan!). Sandblasted in a cabin that fits entire cars.... Hard solder holes, reweld tank parts. Tank primer and then test lighting over 8hours lighting proof pic is missing Parts polished, tank painted, assembled: Lights Serrot translated with deepl
Top Mark's for persevering with this one, a lot of people would have given up on it, now doing what it was made for, very well done. Regards Ian
thanks for your warm words . But without the help of my friends, I would certainly have given up. Because I didn't like the bacon rind shiny tank at all, I gave it another coat of semi-gloss paint today, pics are following tomorrow.
Léo, Here is a Titan restoration with an open heart with all the surgeons around and the light is coming on. Huge work, congratulations ! Best regards, Titoo.
