Thanks all, @Greenboy23 I thought you might like it, we seem to have similar taste when it comes to lamps. Shame we won't be fighting over any at...
I saw that Singer in the background too, my parents have bought a number of those over the years and I've seen a lot of others. That is bar far...
That's what I thought when I saw what was happening.:lol:
I brushed it onto the aluminium spirit cup and that seemed to start fizzing and foaming. I washed it off quick but I’d say that’s not a good reaction.
Just finished cleaning this up. The original glass was broken but luckily I had an identical made in England shot blasted globe in stock. The hood...
I got some of this in the other week and thought it was time to try it out. The original stuff was out of stock, but I got the citrus stuff...
@paparazi Now you’re showing off.:lol: Did you get that one off Ian at Newark one year, or was that someone else I’m thinking of?:-k @David...
@David Shouksmith Ooo ooo, now I’m excited. You can put the M1b to one side for me, tempting is a chrome 310 of course the one far left with the...
I’ve bought a lot of lamps off eBay in the past but I think I just about started before the prices went too silly. Looking back over my purchase...

Hmm, so apart from the chrome on mine, what’s the difference between my 300x and your 305? Is it just that the filler cap changed to the smaller...
I’ve done that several times, including on this E41. Just a good wax and buff can really do wonders. I’ll try and get a picture of the 300...
@Gary Waller @BigStevie Do either of your lanterns have dates stamped into the hoods?
Just pulled all my Vapalux and Bialaddin lanterns together for a line up. Nearly an example of each I think. I don't have a proper 305 but the M1C...
@Gary Waller That’s interesting regarding the lack of split pin, I think mine has one like the usual. I’ll check later.:-k I’ve got a 300 in...
No I think David's wounds are still pretty fresh in that area.:-({|=
@BigStevie I would think it’s the original glass, in the one picture I tried to show the bubbles and dirt that is in the glass. It’s quite rough...
I've had this for a couple of years so decided it was time to give it a little clean. It wasn't bad anyway and if I'm honest I don't think it's...
Yes, I’ve posted a few pictures of that before. Didn’t quite realise the extent of the collection in that boat shed though. That has to be the...
