Tilley storm lantern, x246 11.57

This is my first tilley i found, original condition, as found. just new seal etc, and away she goes.
It is a bit fumey, the mantle pulses, but i like it just as it is.
1st time ive had her going in probably 2 years.
VERY COOL

Hi Darryl,

I rather like those chrome x246s and yours is in good nick from what I can see in that photo. I also like the line up you have behind, hanging from the ceiling. How many do you have now? Send a shot of ‘pizza by Lantern light’ will you? Good stuff.

 

When a Tilley is giving off fumes, it usually means that some part of the burner is loose.

 

One of my favourite lamps.

 

Sorry fellas no pizza nigh by tilley light picture, they didnt like the fumes, i thought it was all right.
Kept the mozzies away, they all packed up went inside.

 

Nice !

 

Nice job Darryl

 

That wooden box you've made - it fits the Tilley ?
Like to give us some dimensions if poss ? Thanks.
Paul.
