Great combo @Buckaroo
That center brass sleeve is flared over the steel cup. You can cut the knurl off to replace your cup and use the nut to retain everything...
Here you go @Norman something I forgot to mention is all those above are running a T88 style gen. For those that don't know that has the cleaning...
Thank you all for the nice comments.
My US Coleman slant collection. Left-right L220, Slanturd (a homemade Frankie), & L228 [ATTACH] 117 w/443 shade, 119 w/444 shade, & 118 w/443...
The orfice at the bottom of that F/A tube needs to be spotless. On those brass F/A tubes I'll soak then in yellow can oven cleaner or lye (take...

Thanks @JEFF JOHNSON I don't mind giving it another go. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something obvious :D Parts for these guys take...
@Tony Press that's what I figured, but it appears to be locked on... I have a feeling it's going to twist the stem. Was a loctite applied to these?
Thanks for the kind words everyone.

A recent fettle. I don't know the Canadian Coleman's that well, but I'm fairly certain this would've originally come with a parchment shade with...
March 1929 327. Notice the cutout in the base of the frame is like the L220/L228's of the same era. Neat piece. Your R55 will work just fine,...
