Hello all I've just got back into Tilley lamps after a few years absence in the Scouts 40 years ago! I have 3 Tilley lamps and 4 stoves of various makes but am struggling with tools and skills in fettling. The main problems are NRV's and any other valves. Does anybody live near Lewes {East Sussex} that could help, give a patient step-by-step guide to an incompetent fettler please‽ I have no skills, except gardening, and very basic tools - spanners etc. Or I'll need an "Idiots Guide" Thanks in advance John
The safety lecture for beginners Welcome John, from Australia so I am not around the corner. Reading the above safety advice first is a great first step. Hopefully someone will be able to help you as you have requested. If not just keep asking questions and you will get answers.
Thank you Sedgman Thank you for the link, I'll have a proper look tomorrow, as it's evening here. It seems to be for petrol lamps mostly, is the advice still good for paraffin/kerosene?
Hi @John Godfrey and Welcome ! good advice already you can’t go far wrong if you watch some tutorials by one of our members i just did a search for ‘broadlander youtube’ and this is what came up see what you think if you have any questions there will always be someone about to give advice ; perhaps not straight away but hopefully soon enough! cheers pb
Hello pb That's brilliant, thank you. It's just the sort of thing I needed. Didn't think to look on YouTube! doh! Cheers John
