Looks a million dollars now. As this was my first foray into table lamps I wasn’t going to let it beat me. From that stress cracked TL10 to this...

I’ve got a shade coming. I’m happy with how it’s turned out. It did seem a bit tight for space to preheat under the globe with the 606 so I’ll...
Yes I will. I’ve seen pics of them with either.
Yes, it’s adjusted there so there’s no flame. I prefer the 169 to be honest but I will get a 606 if that’s what it would have originally had.
Polished, serviced and painted. Makes a handsome table lamp. I like the bits showing its age and the bits that show that it’s had some love. I...
Got a TL106 font, fount whatever you want to call it. Pump lid is slightly different but all the TL10 bits fit, it holds pressure. Leak tested and...

[ATTACH]Apologies for the crappy photo’s. Done the leak test. No leaks. Gave the tank a quick whip over with the Dremel and found another...
Yes, I was reading that this morning. I went to bed right p#%# off. So I was up early searching.
Thanks pb. I’m all for a bit of a fettle! Nothing ventured and all that. Got my Dremel at the ready.
[ATTACH]AND THERE IT IS! Heard about them but this is my first. Right above that stamp. I couldn’t see it with my naked eye but in one of the...
@Tony Press @JEFF JOHNSON @podbross Thank you Everybody for the replies. I’m getting my head around this lamp now. (It only got delivered this...
@Tony Press Definitely brass, I gave it a quick polish earlier. I can’t see anything else stamped around there. I’ve just been on the Terry-Marsh...
@podbros i want to service it first. The tank looks to be in good nick so fingers crossed.
