    Finally finished my first project prior to the 'Haul' some of you will have seen already.
    Fully restored fully from a poor state, I believe its a TL14, and 90% is original with exception of the replacement glass until I can find a genuine Tilley frosted shade.

    Thoughts, constructive comments please at my first attempt?:thumbup:

    It won’t be long til I acquire a lamp or two, but I’m kinda worried they’ll be as broody as my lanterns!!
