Hi @MYN So when measuring as above I get higher results approx. 8mm for my prewar lamps and approx. 9mm for wartime lamps. When you measure like...
Tube diameter in my most "normal" Px lamps (two prewar 827 and one prewar 826) is approx. 7-8mm depending where I meausre it. My war time lamps...
Regarding thick tubes I have one vaporizer with particulary thick tube - it is approx. 9,5 - 10mm diameter. It comes from green 1941 821 lamp....
-exactly, but remember to close the air screw just before pumping :lol:
- sometimes I use stronger solution or I keep parts for days in citric acid solution to get rid of all rust. This way I made a sieve out of the...
Thank you @MYN for your comments. I was super exited about HASAG 102 when I located the first and the second one. Less with others. I was...
I just noted that I made a typo in the thread subject - this is Epidian 5 not Epsidian 5. Anyway - it is worth to try in my opinion.
Hi @MYN That resin is available in many shops online in Poland and in different capacities. I am still "fighting" with my remaining three HASAG...
Dears, Recently I was trying to find some good and cheaper substitution for Caswell epoxy resign tank sealer. I think I have got it finally –...
- yes. You can search for "Racek" and find plenty information on the forum. Of course 150CP will not be as bright as 300CP, but who cares? :lol:...
@Borgi You can also try 150cp jet. Maybe this lamp will run with a smaller jet even with that J-tube and reduced air gap. Anyway, this is an...
I can't believe that you made that spirit cup instead of substituting from some other scrap lamp :shock: Definitely that makes this lamp special...
I know close to nothing about Coleman table lamps, but can not resist to say how much I like that lamp. Colour, shape, these classic and pretty...
Thank you @MYN for all info. It seems that currently I am left with Fertan sealant (approx. 50$) or smallest Caswell kit for approx. 150$ :shock:...
Thanks @MYN Impressive chemistry/chemicals knowledge :clap: I used Caswell in the past (still have a little bit left) and I like it a lot. I...
Thank you @Reinhard and @Martin K. for your input/support. @MYN - I will try learn more about Novolac-epoxies, but I can not get even Caswell in...
OK @MYN so I made some effort :lol: Look at the fuel inlet in pics below. There are clear remains of some reddish paint visible: [ATTACH] Full...
almost all Petromax lamps have brass tanks, so there is no need for any rust protection.
@MYN In my opinion these steel tanks were painted with some reddish anti-rust paint inside.
Hi, That should help: Every lamp is a different adventure :lol: Your lamp seems to be in excellent visual condition and does not require...
