I confess to being a tool nut. But I decided to buy this BA set as I do have work for it with some vintage magneto ignitions as well. The trouble...
I just removed one of those screws and found it fits like a glove in the No.5 die. [ATTACH] It seems BA was the go-to thread for anything more...
Steve, I have tried to see any blue in that one picture, but I can't. But if it is blue, and hence a Rothmans special top, it should come with an...
Incidents like a hard to turn bail nut lead to above inquiry. Then, typically for me at least, it disappears to the background, but still...
I mostly agree Paparazzi; I have decided to sell it on. This is also in line with a recent decision to reduce my collection even more, with only...
Nils, have a look at BSP thread (British Standard Pipe). Yes, if shoes were bolted together instead of laced, there would likely be a BSS thread...
Anything insulating (underneath) is to be preferred, not only to protect but also to avoid heat from the object to flow away. For instance, to...
George, no need to be apologetic.; perhaps it is me who is coming on too strong. I am interested in the process, like several others here on the...

Colin has a good point. Repair with epoxy or tin plate and solder, how long will this last if initially succesfull? The whole bottom is...
This week I bought a Vapalux 300 from 1943, mainly for the hood or top reflector. When comparing the newest arrival with the ones I got with some...
Recently I bought this lamp, advertised as a Vapalux 300X, in the Netherlands. [ATTACH] Initially I thought it to be a mongrel, as the tank...
And it is: the list in the gallery now reflects what we have come to accept as the development of models with their name or type designation.
Thank you, Ross.
In the Forum Problems & Feedback section Matthias mentioned two Bialaddin lamps in the Gallery that seem to have just the 300 model number pressed...
Hello Alistair, you have a lamp I like about best of what Tilley made. Special to me - and probabely to you too - for it's unassuming...
By going through many contributions here on this forum, as well as the internet at large, I realise many collectors, owners even, mix titles with...
Matthias, I have seen those pictures. But I do think that lamp in Korea needs a further clean before we can think of a Bialaddin 300 with...
