Nuff said… :D/:content: [ATTACH]
Edit... it's one of the Relum Magnalux's that was adapted for the UK market. A trawl on the forum came up with this (isn;t this site great...),...
Apologies for lack of replies recently - speedy house move ahoy! Will get settled in new place first then keep on with the Veritas saga. On...
OK, I'll try a mantle and see what happens... I do actually have several cheap and cheerful ones for the very purpose - I thought the accepted...
Hi @ROBBO55 Neither have run properly at all yet - the Superb did the little trick of a blue flame at the burner with the cock closed and...
That’s incredible … I got my turntable in a similar way weirdly enough when I was working at What Hi-Fi? (Vinyl is another passion…). That’s a...
Would a copper grease seal help with this? I definitely haven’t over tightened - they’re both finger tight… because it’s from the same place I...
I have indeed … I’m pumping 10 strokes beforehand as opposed to the 30 recommended in the instructions and using two pre-lights in the meths cup....
OK … firstly, some progress but troubleshooting advice needed. Thanks to @Henry Plews I now have a serviceable jet and after considerable effort...

This is the question… everything was set up as it should be and I was reading the instructions as I lit it :oops:… maybe an enlarged jet hole ?...
Dear God… kaboom is all I’m saying. I’m going to have a stiff scotch or three and think about what might have gone wrong. I know all the seals are...
Current state of play… There is a slight issue in that the pricker mechanism is tight after inserting the two o rings that came in the seals...
Some progress … sprayed in what looks to my eyes a good match for the original green. Certainly transforms what was a wreck, and keeps its place...
I have to say that having stripped down my 350 with a Superb waiting in the wings, it's a very addictive lamp. More importantly it's not a...
Thanks @Henry Plews and good to hear from you - it's in good nick, the only red flag being a rusted cage, which seems to be an issue with Veritas...
Thank you, that’s interesting gen indeed. I’m pretty sure the green on this example was the original and not an aftermarket slap on like the rest...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Apparently these Veritas’s multiply given half a chance. Picked this up today for £10… it had been sat in a shed since...
