DIY carbide lamp making

Hi my Friends, today the next of my Friend project - fantastic stainless steel dishes convrsion into functional carbide lamp. What a great idea and what a perfect result! Enjoy the new DIY episode and if you like it than share/like/subscribe.

I'd definitely make the hole for the gas much smaller maybe half as large and pack the gas tube with steel wool or maybe ceramic insulation fibers to help regulate the pressure and efficiency but otherwise awesome work I think I'll try something similar 😁

[@Sierra111982]

We use these in the 90's when we go fishing at night in the river. I miss those days

[@user-jp1zc5yo9w]

Просто бесподобное решение по своей простоте!!! Просто талант!!! Обязательно сделаю себе. Вы- красавчик!

[@artist4life89]

Would it be possible to put a parts list in the description? I would love to try to make one of these! I just wouldn’t know what the bushings are called or what size. Thanks for a great vid!

[@ssskbslj3640]

Yes. The parts details will be usefull.

[@senyumlahsikit]

Nahh, for sure, he dont know what the part was. He made all parts from scratch, using all those power tools. Including bolt & nut..😢

[@jerrywhidby.]

Rivet nut

[@jerrywhidby.]

Rivet nuts . . . lathe 😅. (Pulls lathe out of back pocket)

[@timothypaulino8454]

These look like items you find in a house (lathe maybe not). That orange washer seal is what you use to seal Mason jars

Excellent DIY carbide lamp - 100% homemade

I didn't know how I came to see this video, but I am glad I did, This is such a fantastic video

[@rickpalechuk4411]

Nice, a trip back in time. Thanks for sharing Cheers

I have 2 or 3 original track worker lanterns from the 1930s that also work with carbide. The original nozzles where made of ceramic and had a kind of filter that regulated the gas stream for an even flame and avoided clogging(causing a dangerous gas pressure). I think it might be a good idea to try using 3D printer nozzles because they are a lot more durable than aluminium disks and come in different sizes down to 0.1 mm. Another good working nozzle can be found in the carburettor of pressurized kerosene lamps.

[@larstrans789]

Splendid work 👏👍

[@homemadetools]

Clever build! We posted this video in our homemade tools forum this week :)

[@meow0103]

Wow... You are amazing 👌Reminded me of our age old Petromax Kerosene Lamps (India) (similar to the paragon lamps of Europe) which were used in our ancestors homes here. Thanks for sharing 🙏

[@96janslavicek]

Perfektní ! 🙂

[@vinceianni4026]

Very good beautiful work

It serves a duel function of keeping you awake wondering when is the next time it is going to pop lol.

[@TheXquantumleap]

Nice carbide lapm, like Lukasiewicz (form Poland) made kerosene lamp

[@MrJendatu]

Parádní práce. 😉👍

Good job.

Perfect!

Nice, but some of us do not own a lath

[@wieslawkruczala3205]

You are really skillful.

[@cryptofxalgorithms]

wow , wow , wow!

[@bjf10]

Super cool!

[@Monaco_mechanical]

Are those riv-nuts or some sort of expansion shield? I didnt know you could do that by hand

[@marivelacosta5747]

Excelente información!!! Gracias!!!!

[@FanyArmy]

Zajímavé, možná zkusím :)

[@b_lach00]

Hi, i'd like to make my own one, but how do i know that when the pressure of acethylene will get lower it wouldn't explode and hurt me with shrapnells?

[@graemeallan54]

needs air to burn,keep the generator airtight

[@DavidFraser007]

It looks excellent.

[@brajamusti6212]

In my village call name is Petor, the old lamp of Carbide

[@marcin84m2]

💪🏻

[@moinshaikh2265]

Lovely beautiful. .but those days are gone.

[@blackkat101]

Hole is much to large for the gas. Will want to make it smaller so you don't have such a long trailing flame. Not as easily fixable as say, center punching the hole to close it up a bit. Since the way it was done in the video was to place a small piece of metal at the end that the hole was punched in, you'll have to completely replace said piece to get a smaller opening.... At least it isn't unfixable.

[@user-fy5jr4ms2c]

Good Like!!!:) 😊😊😊👍👍👍

[@grimmvanhelzing9776]

Nice 👌

[@AgungSubekti.]

What a carbide will gone loses after water drop, and how long duration thanks serrr

[@luzinetesantos6822]

muito bonita a invençao gostei parabéns irmão

[@MrCestak]

Super nápad. Nepřemýšlel jsi přidat nějaký PDF plánek ke stažení s postupem na výrobu? Díky

[@thudor1]

Without the reflector, it looks like a Neapolitan "flip-drip" coffee maker.

[@user-vm6mv8il6s]

how long does light last each time?

[@fechaed]

Excelente trabalho, parabéns! Quase tudo da para fazer em casa, com algumas ferramentas, exceto a flange feita no torno. Nada que não dê para improvisar.

[@kassiog.6595]

mas também nada que uma visita rápida no torneiro não resolva

[@lifeskillsdn]

So amazing

[@jamesrobertgarcia4567]

Cool

[@stephensmith799]

A good friend gave me a German locomotive lamp which was either paraffin or carbide powered (the inner lamp is missing). It would be great to bring it back to life in this way. Would a mantle make the light even brighter?

[@user-ut1wd5lq5l]

Do you sell these?

[@awaisulqamar3710]

Best

[@jamesrobertgarcia4567]

Hey dude can you make a two cup coffee pot !

[@getprobed838]

can i just buy that one from you?

[@victoryfirst2878]

HOW long does the lamp burn to produce light ???

[@dpsamu2000]

if I had all that stuff I'd have done it myself with better than tin cups, a salad bowl, and a piece of aluminum from a cat food can. When I had a machine shop I did it myself making world class engineering applications for aerospace, marine, frontier physics, nuclear, and Star Trek the voyage home, and the opening credits for Star Trek Enterprise. Just sayin it's not do it yourself when you got a machine shop.

[@acikauitam8482]

How long will extend?

[@harishankarkaviarasu9096]

4:27 that sound

Right,who has a lath?

[@robcrowley75]

Sorry if posted but could you print M sizes and lengths of bolts .

[@petrmaly9087]

Jako ono je to krasny, ale mam dojem, ze ti ten plisek za dva roky ten karbid sezere.

[@luboskadidlo7764]

Ono není vůbec těžké udělat nový. On tam je i z bezpečnostního hlediska, že pokud by byl vysoký tlak v nádobě, tak tvoří přetlakovou pojistku

[@petrmaly9087]

@@luboskadidlo7764 Pak je lepsi tam dat pretlakovou pojistku jako takovou, to je mnohem bezpecnejsi, nez plech, ktery praskne na neznamem miste a vypusti vysoce horlavy plyn pod neznamym uhlem.

Берем значит токарный станок....

Sell me the complete kit for the lamp

I'm up there too I do not own a lathe but improvise and adapt .

[@user-yj3ti7wx4p]

у нормальных карбидок пламя обычно вверх пускаю. и света больше и джедайский меч не получается. а то махнул головой, веревку рубанул и полетел на дно пещеры. а если не для пещер то наверно сойдет.

Wait, wait I’m sure that a DIY store has something on sale that would make it easier and cheaper than the crap you’ve produced.

What?

You don't have to watch his content.

Maybe but at least he can say he made it from scratch and by hand and as far as being crap , we all would love to see you try and do it 🤔 , that's what i thought , go back to playing with your shadow 👤

ill just go down to the cave below my basement where my expensive machine shop is hidden and build me one.
