Hi tony, I wish I could load a picture up, used to use photo bucket here but it won't allow any more and as I'm on an iPad I'm stumped! These...
Another thought while on about vap tubes....I got an idea, you can buy these Brass end things on EBay. Now it's got me wondering if the end of a...
They must have some sort of thread seal on them from new. I put them in a vice and use some Stilsons or pipe grips. Once you have unscrewed one...
Strange that, every one I have tried unscrews just fine? Then again I was the official tight lid unscrewer in the house!
The brass end unscrews making cleaning a doddle and also helps the bent wire trick get into the top part with the spring!

Is that the first incarnation of this heater? Not seen one with the air tube attachment on the back?
I had the same problem, mixing dome glowed red! Couldn't find anything wrong but changed it and it ran fine!
It's trial and error for mantles IMO. All the Bialaddin/vapalux mantle supports are the same so they can take a range of Mantles not just double...
Sorry to hear of this. I'm not sure but I think Mike was the first person to comment on a vid I did on a lamp on YouTube?
They bought a bialaddin Bowlfire guard off me recently and all seems to have gone well. I did have a lot of their aliases on block but that name...
I think the only stuff able to take the heat would be stove rope glue but not sure how well it sticks to metal?
Perhaps get the police involved if a crime is being committed or threaten eBay with such action? Worked for me in the past with the Phoenix Park lot!
Could we do something along the lines of what was done on a well known Airgun Forum when knock off Leupold telescopic sites were being sold as...
