All fine. Welcome to the Tilley lamp parts eating + money sink contest.
Given that you were heating and quenching it...was it NBG to begin with? If it was a good performer you would have left it alone - no? In your...
Aspen has gone up 30% then. £18 last time I bought any - maybe 2001.
Tilley generator, how to progress.
welcome back David.
Didn't you check this before you lit it?
It wasn't made like that. It has over heated and deformed under the weight of the hood. Possibly it was burning up in the dome at some point?...

I wonder if what you picture is an old grey "skid mark" from a lead washer once fitted and that wasn't actually there when you unscrewed the NRV....

A tea light tin full did this. Meths has a bigger flame but this burns more slowly and lasts longer. It didn't need a wick. [ATTACH] I was...
