How to Make an Oil Lamp The Russian Way! 

"Now we will see if it is leaking. It's leaking." XD *puts tape on it* "Now it's sealed, so it won't leak anymore" *Obviously still leaking* XD I love this guy.

For anybody who would like to know what to use in order to make it not leak, the tape that you need is called teflon tape/ plumber's tape/ PTFE tape. It is really thin and goes directly on the threading of the plumbing. It really helps and is pretty cheap. Have fun!

4:18 "you're like yeah I made it yourself"

In Russia, there are no halves; only two quarters.

well use pipe tape ;)

I like that you don't edit out your trials and errors. Keep up the good work!

The thing that I like about your videos is that you show all the bloopers and fails without cutting them out! keep up the good work!

Pretty much a Heavy Duty Candle...

Dude I'm going to make one for my home in case of power outage but I am going to make it out of all brass so it can't rust away thanks

The Nokia 3310 Oil Lamp Totally indestructible!

That's actually pretty cool, nice for outdoors and citronella oil. Can use a glass cutter and a ball jar for a windscreen. Nice idea! Thanks!

Brilliant! I'm going to make one of those. With a little more addition to have a glass cover for it as well like the old style oil lamps.

You need teflon tape. That stuff it so easy to find lol.

4:20 YEAH I MADE IT YOURSELF!

Dude steampunk mini lamp! Amazing stuff dude.

A little DIY tip. My favorite thing to use for sealing water or air fittings, is Blue locktite. its easy to apply just squirt some around your fitting screw together and you only need to leave it for a min or so to dry.

You need Teflon tape

i saw it leak

Iron pipe uses a tapered thread so you need to tighten the fittings with a wrench to get them to seal ( along with pipe tape or pipe dope ).

I really like it . It would like awesome all rusted up I'm going to make a few for my back yard party thank you for sharing

still leaking bro, i'm not blind. Ues a sealing tape, and try again

LOL it leaked even after the tape (watch it right at the moment that he pours in the oil). you are not supposed to use that kind of tape..xD

If you use teflon tape AND tighten more with some wrenches the pipe thread is tapered so it should seal tight no leaks.

that next lamp will be awesom!! I love doing these things.

did he say $30 to $40 bucks to make this oil lamp. ...that's a huge waste of time and money. ..its Kool though. ...

30 bucks? i can buy real oil lamps for 9.99 at my big box store.

Wow 8 years ago? Love your videos! My favorite hack is how to use my car's remote under my chin, from great distance, and press button. Werks great!

so tell us more about that black smoke coming out of the flame, is it making small black residue flying bits as plastic and naphtha?

I made one just like it I went to the Home Depot and I told the guy there what I needed and even showed him the video and he liked it any ways I love my new oil lamp it's nice thanks.

This is a fantastic design you have made, please do make more.

I have a question. I babysit and tried making this for the kids as a cool night light but I am afraid that it might be dangerous for the kids. Is there a way to make this but have some kind of insulation around the flame?like glass or something. thank you in advance I hope you read my comment.

That oil lamp at the end is going to be pretty cool.

thats the strongest most durable lamp i seen...maybe you could make a hand torch version,somthing like the olympic torch...for night time zombie hunting of course

I wonder if I could use this design to make a carbide lamp

awesome bong! welcome back to your laboratory! finally an original vid back in his den!

I love it when u say "pretty awesome/ isn't it amazing, huh?" hahaha nice vids

it is really cool but does it get over heated?

Can we use coconut oil? With coconut shell? Or just use flashlight,too much smoke inside the haws

Looks Awesome. Where did you get the wick? Also what kind of oil are you using?

"Ya i made it yourself". That part just cracks me up all the time!

That is really cool! but how long before it blows up?

Plumbing parts cost a fair bit! However You can cut down the cost a bit by gathering scrap wood and make a stand from that and by buying a cap instead of a hose barb and just drill a hole in it. However this is only effective if you have the tools, but for me it cost around $20 for the necessary parts. Also buy the brass components and not the galvanised or chrome plated ones to lower the cost some more.

Still really cool though :D looks awesome and you could just glue the gaps then tape over to stop leaking

I personally like the steampunk oil lamp more it looks really cool

maybe you should turn up your volume, i knew what he was saying ever since i started watching CRH, and it sounds very clear to me and many other fans of his.

Hello Russo. I see you have some problems with seals leaking tubes. I can give you good tips if you do not have the tape. You can use plastic bags you get at the supermarket when shopping, just cut similar to the width of the tape strips and wrap it around the threads of the tubes. I would like you to do a video with this technique. Hope you like it. Thank you.

You can take a old shoe lace, and cut off the aglet (plastic tip on the end of it) and cut it to size and use that ad a wick if you want!

You can also use teflon tape, which is designed to seal threaded part of pipes

Should I need to use some crappy plumber's tape? Here's a tip: For long term aplicattions instead of using plumber's tape try applying regular silicone to the threads. Best used on long term aplications because it takes a very long time if ever (and I am sure after many many years it might) for it to dry out. :P

That was really cool! Definetly making that!

This is amazing oil lamp! I will have to try this!!

CRH, the tape did leak. You can see the oil running down through the threads of the screw on part at 2:18. I think you would need to use teflon tape.

This gentleman,where did get that idea. Wow! What else you got? But I ll try use Teflon tape, except smokey

I wonder if it's safe using ethanol.

yours channel is getting better and smarter good ideas

Could you modify it so its detachable from the stand so its like a torch????

guess who's back? back again, in his labratory, crazyrussianhacker's back..... tell a friend

heavy is good, if it does not work you can always hit them with it ! krasiva spaciba !

When you said lamp oil I really thought you would then say 'rope, bombs, you want it?' lol

This is like a candle design. Awesome

That's awesome. The tape you misplaced is called plummets tape.

You can use plumer tape whitch prevents leaks

In a zombie apocalypse, I'd use all that plumbing stuff for plumbing. Maybe you should make one out of a coke can and a shoe lace, but then I wouldn't want to run out of shoelaces if zombies were chasing me.

I would like to know if it can explode before I make one myself

That's pretty darn cool

You make this look easy. So awesome!

I would make one but where can i buy those things? (i am dutch)

Where the hell do you get these stuff?

That is pretty cool lookin, expensive, but cool lookin.

lolll not even 10 mins uploaded already 301+ vieuws this guy is awesome keep making vids crh we luv you

What does he use as the base?

the foot isn't attached , its just for putting it on a flat surface so it wont topple so easily and it shakes so much because he has shakey hands

walking in the club like: watsup i got a homemade oillamp

where do you get your pipe from?

How does it last once lit

He says, "What's up everybody. Welcome back to my laboratory, where safety is number one priority." =)

Oil. Lamp live with you for ever .

How should I know what my pH is?

it did you can see the whole pipe changing to a darker colour as the the liquid goes through/on

That looks very cool!

Can you make a cool bong from household items please?

This should be awesome at summernights!

can you make a multi wick one please? thank you

And if you make the wick shorter, you have the same size flame

would this work with PVC pipes ?

the idea to make a cool thing out of scrap pipe is great. the russian way is to make practical simple effective things that work.

i love how specific he is

That's one of your best videos thanks for taking ur time out of your day to upload these amazing videos -James

can u use vegtable oil

If you attach a glass bottle/jar over the top of it with a small vent in the top and a wire handle, you can have an oil lamp like in Amnesia :)

But does it blend?

Can we use Teflon tape? Or which better electric tape or Teflon tape. Hey but thus is a good lamp but I scared I don't wanna burn my house,

btw that lamp oil is called kerosene for those that doesnt know the name, i found its way much cheaper to buy it from paint shop as kerosene than buying it as lamp oil.

thats awesome .. i would show more of the beak to make the fire bigger and more light xD

OK the next oil lamp he's going to show looks pretty sick.

There are tapes made specifically for screws. They are usually white and with no sticky side

Nice concept but you need some glass protection for the flame also or you will burn things up.

dude the 2nd time is even more fun. as you can see it's now not leaking, you can obviously see the oil seeping through the tape lmao :D

1:01 screw it on.. so its connected and watch at 2:28 as he dips it into the lamp.. it starts moving. so not stable enough.

the best lamp
