Here is the old-style Tilley burner I described. [ATTACH] Would you use this burner?
Alright, I do feel a lot better knowing that so many of you have had nothing but good experiences with the Juliands burners. My inquisitive mind...
Probably several more than I need :oops:. I’ve sold a substantial number of them but at the moment I’ve still got 5 Tilleys (2 Guardsmen, 2...
@Steptoe It looks like we have some very similar lamps in our collections :a.
A person has to learn to set limits and boundaries :oops:.
Thanks for your opinion! I’m kind of leaning towards that one, maybe just because it’s very hard to come across one of those frames in mint...
@podbros I’ll get in touch with him about it. He certainly seemed nice on the phone when I called him to order the burner and other doo-dads, so...
Is your point that I lack intelligence?
I have now managed, somehow, to disassemble everything that can be disassembled by hand, with the help of a giant rubber band folded and...
I wouldn’t use the air pipes anymore even if I could remove them, which I can’t. The threaded section of the outer end of each tube is canted...
Thanks, Jeff! The one on the right represents my first encounter with a Happy Mantle. It was hard to make the decision to actually use it given...

That’s interesting. I actually considered presenting them in such a way that the buyer could pick which of the two to take, while making it clear...
Thanks, Tony. I’ve tested this burner on all my Tilleys and it makes every one of them perform terribly. I usually end up aborting the test after...
[ATTACH] Here is a Tilley-compatible burner I bought from Tilley Lamps and Stoves not long ago and just recently took into use with a fully...
Here’s a rather dumb question, but I just don’t know where else to turn—and seriously, one of them has to go. Which of these fine X246B’s would...
Thank you!! I’ve mantled it and had it running for 4.5 hours straight without having to fiddle with it whatsoever or even add pressure beyond the...
I actually soaked it in (nearly) boiling water from the kettle last night to see if it would soften the plastic or free anything up, but to no...
Funny, my wife insisted that the knob must have been super glued onto the spindle. And she came up with that idea before seeing the aftermath...
It was indeed really bad. It seems to have cleaned up nicely, though. I’ve “upgraded” it with an old brass cup and flat washer as well as the...
