Hey Neil/Wim. Last night I had nothing else to do so I disassembled everything. I noted that only weeks ago I remove the black grit on the...
Am new at Tilley and since I received it has been pulsing or "hunting" quite noticeable compared to my Vapalux that is not so obvious. Would like...
I would think a 359 Hybrid or "Transition" but Hybrid sounds modern :mrgreen: Ron
Collin, from what I can see in #1, the lantern had 2 spindles, one to supply preheating fluid to the preheater - am I correct on this? Can the...
Christer such a complicated and fascinating stove. I guess during the early years they never thought of K.I.S.S. but rather overdo the whole...
They probably did not want to waste any of the production fount so they used whatever they could to still make up a stove. In any case, yours will...
This just came today in the mail - disassembled. I checked first if all parts were there :thumbup: Then, I took out the burner and sprayed it...

I take it back, the patina covered what looked like a shallow stamp and after using brasso, it came to show 1966 :thumbup: Another question is...
Jeff, no stamp on the base plate or anywhere in the lamp :( The worker doing the stamp must have been sleepy and let the base pass by without...
Hey Sid, thanks. I guess my Tilley was made in the 60's and doing some research though the burner assembly where there are 3 intakes all have...
So what is the difference physically between the "a" and the "b"? Am I to assume the "x" denotes outdoor lantern? My Tilley does not have any...
Am getting confused what does the x stand for as you say theres the x246b andthe 246b just so I know the difference visually since I have a 246...
Hey James, I have a similar lamp. I got lucky on Ebay for a milk glass shade for less. You just have to make sure the diameter works with the...
Odd design indeed :roll: Ron
I will make sure to keep that technique - using a torch to get out the gland as a last recourse. Thanks gentlemen.
