It’s beautiful!

Nice informative video Ken. I was given 2 20 juniors but they might not be salvageable. Is it possible to get a fuel tank to replace a badly rusted one? Where is the best place to get new parts that I may need ? Thanks KEN !!

I have a old little wizard lantern. It want stop smoking. Changed wick and fuel 2 times and it still smokes. What do you think the problem is

Can can you show me how to repair the bottom of the fuel tank on my ad lake lantern it is rusted out. How would you repair it?

The magnet is a great solution. Happy Father’s Day

I like the magnet idea. Patent it before Dietz starts churning them out in China.

That's an old drum brake spoon , for adjusting the Spreader wheel on drum brakes through the slot in the backing plate

Happy Father’s Day! Magnet idea was awesome! 😃👍

I'm so happy. I posted a video 2 weeks ago. And I got a 194405 views Very cool i'm excited

Spectacular job Brother 👍 👏

Happy father's brother and hello from romulus Michigan God-bless brother

Yup that is a nice looking Hungarian made lantern you have there Ken! 🙂🙂 Great idea of using those Neodymium miniature magnets to secure the shield on your other lantern! 👍 Yup gives me an idea to fabricate a little reflector shield for one of my lanterns!👍👍 Yes getting ready for camp & yup a few lanterns to bring to camp & deciding on which lantern or lanterns to bring!🙂🙂

good idea using the small neo magnet to mount the reflector clever thinking. thank you for the kind fathers day wishes and a very happy fathers day to you too. thanks for posting today.

That's a perfect tool ! Why didn't I think of that? Lol. The magnet ideal was good too, Thanks Ken

Ive fashioned before, an aluminum pie pan just below the crown of my lanterns to help reflect more light shinning down when i string them way up high under a tall tree branch.

I can get this railroad lantern for $50. Do you think it's worth it I'm trying to send a picture in the text. I can't quite figure it out. I'm working on it

Michael from Australia, I have a number of dietz, blizzard ,,d-lite and so on, both cold flow.

lanora hot flow as apposed to lanora junior which is a cold flow. not many people know the difference between hot and cold flow lanterns. I'm Michael from Australia and I have both lanterns in my collection.

Hi Ken, nice video as usual ! Maybe I have a turkish tubular lantern in my collection lantern. It has an inscription "Metanol" on it. Is it turkish, or it's made somewhere in eastern europe? Not 100% sure. About yours lantern, all I can say is LE VENT on france language means : the wind. Just a thought, maybe you'll find it interesting. Anyway, best regards from Croatia! le vent = the wind

Have you ever tried soaking rusty stuff in vinegar? I recently threw two seriously rusted and locked up corn shellers in a storage tote that had vinegar/water drained from a gas tank clean out job in it. I forgot about them being in there for a couple of weeks and when I pulled them out they were clean, shiny and unstuck. Working on an Embury #25 truck light right now myself. Hoping to find a 225 to go with it.

I have similar model

Thanks for sharing! You do have allot of lanterns. I love it.

I got a lantern project for you Ken lol, im not sure how to fix it.

Enjoyable video, thanks! Do you solder up the pin holes? I'll have to do some searching of your videos to see if you might have explained/shown how this is done. Thank you.

I hate the way the digital camera does lantern flames and airplane props. It makes it look like you had a runaway flame, I can't even get a good still shot of mine without the digital technology making it look brighter than it actually is.

Thanks Ken, great save with those two lanterns, best wishes from Ireland.

Three things I love on lanterns, reflectors, lenses and cages! 😃👍🇺🇸

Yes a nice restoration on the Levent OZ lantern & plus the Liberty lantern ever turned out awesome there Ken!🙂👍 Yup in a few weeks time & bringing a few lanterns to camp to light up on the deck there & hopefully make a little video, if I don’t forget!🙂🙂 Yup the wife there won’t notice that her green metal plant retaining thingie kinda went missing, to fix the guard wire on the Liberty lantern! Lol🙂 Yup it’s lantern time!👍👍

You have been working hard on your lanterns and they both look excellent. I wonder if one o the cold air tubes is partially blocked and if that is part of what is up with your leaning lame? Take care. Am looking forward to your next video.

Hi! Nice video, greetings from Poland 😊

Thanks for the how to. Good looking Lantern

Looks like the previous owner burned diesel fuel instead of kerosene

Great job Brother thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise now i know what to do with mine 😀 thank you

Nice clean up Ken. The how to videos are really helpful...

Ken- That came out fantastic! Looks awesome now…. 😃👍

Turned out really well. It’s in very good condition considering it’s age. The Dietz are rare enough in Ireland but I managed to get a couple. I think the collector market is growing as it’s getting harder to find them.

That came out really nice! A noob here. What kind of seal does the tank cap have? When cleaning mine up I noticed that there is no tank cap seal and the cap doesn't tighten very well. Thanks, Bill

Great stuff Ken. Wow that cleaned up sweet! Good idea using the ac fan.

I recenty cleaned an Embury Air Pilot #1 that had most of it's paint, some rust and some carbon deposits. I used Sea Foam cleaner/lubricant spray. Mostly because it was the first can I found in the garage. It did a wonderful job. Soak it down and leave it set on a shop rag for a day, wipe it down with the soggy rag later.

What's the brightest lantern I can buy? Brand and model

Mine is just like that, but the bail on top is thicker wire and round, without the indented part in the middle. My grandfather told me it was a very old lamp in 1964, been in regular use over the decades, had to patch up fuel leaks with JB Weld.

I need to get me some of that super clean, is it like simple green? Your Lantern turned out very nice Ken !

Wow that Dietz D-lite lantern ever cleaned up very good Ken! 👍 Lantern looks fantastic too & burns very nice too with a great flame! 🙂 Love the gazebo you have!👍 Yup when it gets dark, it’s lantern time!👍👍

DUDEZILLA! I'm super bummed I didn't meet you at JACK TOWN 2024!

Hello from romulus Michigan brother I saw you a couple times somebody else's video at jacktown

Very nice, I have a D- lite with a red globe and down here in Delaware they are around $60/$80+ in the junk shops , prices have gotten a bit ridiculous lately, guess I need to look up north

Ken, that super clean works great! Thanks for sharing.

Nice lamp and vid Ken , we have none of these in Belgium unfortunately. Have a great day

You bought some good stuff. Nice seeing you and your son.
