    Here is my X246B Mk II lantern that I collected from @Sam Little in Edinburgh at the beginning of the month, it just needed to have some new seals fitted and I've also given him a pump transplant as his will need to be fettled, and as I've got a spare pump it just made sense... :D/

    Thanks, the fount just needed to have a gentle clean with some warm soapy water, the same with the glass. :thumbup:
    This is the first time that I've done all the work myself, so I'm dead chuffed.! :D/

    Yes you should be pretty pleased as the lantern looks well cleaned and is burning beautifully. I personally like the look of the red Tilleys too.
