So does anyone know how many members attended this meeting? I see a field full of cumfy campervans, but also some caravans and quite a few tents...
Normally the part would be sandblasted, sanded, tankplated with a thick layer of copper (preferably coppercyanide as that has the best filling...
True, it's patina and the rest of the lamp also isn't perfect. A new centerplate might look too obvious shiny and perfect. The diluted HCL and...
Cool pictures over there. And that pizza napolitana with ansjovis...yummy :D
Nice pictures with those lamps lit. Those lamps on that table look brandnew. Gorgeous :) Any action pictures of what was cooking on petroleum...
yeah I'll probably do that. This is how it was after cleaning (with alkaline electrlytic cleaner), so some rust is already gone, it was worse (to...
That smaller inner diameter might be a difficult to solve problem indeed.
Thanks Wim. That protection plate does sound a bit like a gimmick. If the centerscrewhole getting unsoldered was a real risk and would cause...
That's quite a dark picture for a meeting of lamp enthousiasts :mrgreen::lol:
I have a Petromax 827 250CP, and my centerplate is rusted badly. Does a 122 centerplate from a 829/500cp also fit the 827? [img] I can't find a...

That is the price in Dutch and German webshops. If I order it from the UK, after added VAT and broker costs, it'll cost roughly the same. At...
Yes that's what I'm gonna do. It's still functional. If I poke the rubber with a little screwdriver I can feel it's still pliable, however, it is...
Ok, it's not coming off. I made a custom viseclamp from wood and lined it with fine emery cloth, clamped it down pretty good, but even with a...
I already had it in boiling water, but that made no difference. Normally if you want to overcome the bond of epoxy, loctite, or worse, galvanic...
Thanks for correcting that.:thumbup: So it's friday 21 august 1970 :)
I bought a Petromax 827, and I wonder what the manufacture date is. On the bottom it's stamped 3405, and from what I understand from browsing on...
The pump nut on my Tilley x264b seems to be unbelievably stuck. It's this nut, the one from the valve: [ATTACH] I've tried holding the pump with...
I had to look up BOC, but I see it's a division of Linde, who also has a/the hire system here in the Netherlands. Indeed crazy expensive. My dad...
