I need some parts. The Nut that holds the top of the lantern on was seized solid so what thread is it so I can make another? Also what do people used for washers it looks like a plastic material on mine?
@winchman My one is at the lock up but it may be an imperial thread as it’s a Coleman? For the pump you can get another kit either online or from base camp or get a leather washer from the Fettlebox here on CPL and carefully take off the star-lock washer and re-use? I think base camp might have the knurled nuts but best to ring im at the lock up tomo so could check threads .. another member might chip in b4 then
Thanks I believe it's a UNC thread so I should be able to get one tomorrow as I am going to a small auto jumble / Car. Bike and lorry show. I was hoping I could just make a leather washer? I don't like buying things if I can make one
Cool good luck at the auto jumble, great places to spend a happy hour or 8 yes, unc and some of the smaller whitworth nuts may also fit well enough at a push Cheers
Thanks No one selling Nuts and bolts at the Autojumble, so we will have to make one or have a root through all the boxes of random imperial stuff.
Rats if you can’t find a nut drop us a line, im sure i can run a tap through something to get you going? pb
