Nice and well done presentation. Unless you sell an identical copy under the same name you don't get a lawyer on your heels, I guess. What I see...
I would say:try it out. I think despite the craftsmanship that the steel and brass is to heavy, to thick and heat transfer may or may not work. It...
I think you need these: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I never use the rapid for the first runs. In my opinion the heat of the rapid hardens the mantle on one side very fast. Better is a slow start...
Looks great, I have the same lantern but never started to restore it. The whole pricker part is corroded and the tank has stress cracks.
Yes the principle is the same but the pre heater "burners" are different. The alcohol version is the normal U-shaped disc where the petroleum...

E. Schatz as well as M. Aschwanden never made lantern parts in Swiss. There where small batches of parts made in the beginning at mostly Ditmar...
You should use the needle ! Then tell us what fuel you use, how you maintain the pressure etc. Some people think that you don't have to pump air...
These are very well German made lanterns. Can you show us a picture of the label?
Nice lamp and well done repair !
Welcome, Nice and well preserved lamp you have. Whatever you do, test it outside and be sure you know how it should work and for all what to do...
You can but if your goal is to have a well burning lantern, I would not advise it. Does your car drive better when you put 17inch tires on the...
Thanks Tony, New to me, or I have forgotten. Never the less: it is old.
Even without the globe , you may drop it at my house any time. You will even get a good coffee. Nobody did notice the double valve? It even has...
