Year older. Dang gamer.

Wow! Looks like an interesting project. I bot the top sign.

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Nice light up Levi but you missed that optimus 99 yesterday I didn’t miss it! He had no word! That seller deserves what I called him. 🤣 Excuse me tower this is flight 220 and we have some disturbance of light coming up from Muncie, Indiana can we get a Vector Roger. And stop calling me Sherly. Haha...

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Should add that’s stuff like this is super common. Light em!

I lit a few tonight as well. Only a few.

Leviticus_Tomethreus

These are neat. You have em burning in the night so if you wake up at night you can see a little to light the big lamps

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Silk lites are thorium. Looks for a Clara weave or silk lite package

Count em! He’s a wimp. Almost peed himself lighting a coleman. He couldn’t give the 200a more than 40 pumps on half tank!

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Hey all! I dragged my brother out on this beautiful 60° night for some fire!

Wow! Never thought I’d see a welcome post! Lol

Leviticus_Tomethreus

What is it for?

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Wow! That mesh globe is awesome. But that lamp! Amazing!!

Leviticus_Tomethreus

The poor Kremelite.

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Better watch out! Somebody on FB is trying to attack! Look like Nulite a to me. Worth it for the mica frames. Should be TOO hard to put new mica in.

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Just wait for lantern Larry to show up. Lol

I have to say as addicting as collecting GPAs is, it doesn't hold a candle to the camaraderie I seek out here several times a day. We all like to see what everyone is finding and working on, as well as encouraging/enabling along the way. 😉 So... What did everyone find this weekend anyhow?... Not a ...

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Get a photo Resizer app or use an outside service and post a direct link. That milspec is in GREAT shape. Reflector is about average size.

Still awesome!

Nothing beats this place. So many folks here. I’m active all day. lol

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Amazing. Wow. Happy Birthday Willy’s mother.

Leviticus_Tomethreus

My question is, why are you using propane? Ick!

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Shouldn’t chance anything I would think.

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Even as a reproduction, that amber jar is way cool. >> I bet you they used Coleman lamps. I wouldn't bet on that. A hundred years ago, there were several lighting options, with gasoline being only one of many. For example, if these folks were that wealthy and had a mansion, they may have had their ...

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Okay bud. Lemme say. I think ya mean 200a. The single mantle model. Watch out for them milspecs! LOW pressure! 5 pumps to start. Scary beasts. They take a bit to heat up and stop spewing flames. Super loud too!

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Id like to see some pics. Especially of the amber. Well. I may have one... it’s a reproduction. They made repops here in 1976 only. I kid you not, two blocks away! I have this thing that was made two blocks away. So amazing. Originals are by far the arrest and most expensive because they were I bel...

Well darn! Worth a try!

Lol. Really?

Do I see Geometry homework or some crap on the computer? Hahah

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Not so much a collector, but I have many 1/2 pint, pint and quart jars that my grandmother used for canning back in the day. Both the Ball and Atlas brand with the wire bail and glass top. I remember seeing them in the “cold cellar” packed with tomatoes and such from their garden. Helped her do a l...

There sure is! I joined one. Lol

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Hey all! As some know, I live where Ball Glass Co had their headquarters for probably right around a century. They’d tarted in Buffalo New York with the rare amber Buffalo jar and then immediately moved to Muncie, Indiana for the natural gas. Neat stuff. Anyway, my grandpa had amassed a nice collect...

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Great lantern and super photos, Toby. Your photography skills are approaching those of Gunhippie! Thanks Courtnaey, don't tell Timm that... He's using thousands of dollars worth of photo equipment to my $100 phone 😁 Where's he been anyhow? 🤔 If Coleman were to reproduce any of those, I'm pretty cer...

I think you're right, altho a modern version of a 242 would probably be pricey with all of its brass and casted pieces... I'd still want one

They were like $100 in today’s equivalent I think.

Leviticus_Tomethreus

New stuff is way better. New business?

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Wow! You are one lucky fella. I’m. Sniffle. So. Jealous!

Leviticus_Tomethreus

Wow! It's really cool. No idea who made it or if it'll handle the heat, but I'd run it. Bet it looks even better with light inside. Thanks everyone, I also think it looks UFO like, and it's really growing on me. I think the heat should be fine, it's my understanding that shades arent borosilicate o...

Wow! How’d I miss that??

Nice work, Pancho; he owes you at least a hundred corn cobs. 🤪 they come handy in winter months to start a fire 🔥. Thanks Great job Pancho! Levi, you have a sweet lantern there! Thank you!

No, it was just Major for the 236 and Empire for the 237.

One of these days somebody with find a major 237 and flip out.

Was there such a thing as a 237 major?

Nice work Pancho! I remember when Levi mentioned all the parts he ordered overseas and was thinking he should have known to ask here first. Hopefully that's a lesson learned. >>Wasn’t my fortune.

Wasn’t my fortune. Hahaha
