This is the one that I won. :D/ The cap just sits on the reservoir.
@podbros, rather warm actually when it's running... :mrgreen:
I'll get round to uploading pictures, but the cap needs to be 7/8 of an inch in diameter. :-k
The lamp has just arrived and it's a weighty beast.! Coming in at 5lb 13oz and is most certainly Victorian being made out of solid brass....
I couldn't possibly comment... :oops:
Yeah, but it's getting it to sit straight and stay there I have a problem with... [-X
Probably, but the pump might be a mishmash of two different pumps... :-k
The shade on my TL106 sits squint as well. :-k
I've just won the auction for the lamp and it's going to cost just over twenty five quid with the shipping, so I might have got myself a bargain.! :D/
I'm looking at one that has been listed as 'Chalwyn' because of the cap to the oil reservoir, but the burner says 'Martin Patent'. :-k
Does anybody know anything about them.? :-k
Looks good.! :D/:clap:
@Wayland, I'll give superglue a go. :thumbup: Next time we're out at the shops I'll get some. If that doesn't work I'll go for the soldering...
Hiya that looks wonderful.! :D/ I've got a Hurrifume lantern that's seeping from the seam between the base and the upper part of the font. :?: Any...
I do like the lanterns with the logo on the glass picked out.! :D/
When I got my latest X246B, there was still pressure in the tank after being left that way for a good few years.!
Great restoration.! :clap:
Can't help you with this I'm afraid I'm a Tilley girl when it comes to pressure lamps, and for a boat I'd favour the X246B lanterns. :-k
It could be the case that not enough time was left for the paint to cure fully. :-k
Looking good.! :clap:
