Awesome Alicia... I have some lanterns of old, have wondered how to open them for wick replacement. YaaaaY ! 🤗 Now I know. 🤗 Blessings. Thanks for the share. 😊 Blessed Easter. ✝️💖
You should have cut the wick longer Alicia, I would have cut it a couple inches longer. The extra length won’t hurt anything as is will just fold over and lay on the bottom. At the same length it might not even touch bottom to use all the kerosene. And the wick does eventually lose some of its length as you use it because the black carbon on the end of the wick will eventually disintegrate in time. But good job figuring it out!
Oh thanks Alicia , I have an old coleman lanterns and did not know how to change the wick , Looks like a similar lantern so I should be able to change it now. The pond looks beautiful even in the rain & snow such a peaceful sight. I've always wondered if that glob can be replace if it is broken as things happen eh. thanks for showing us appreciated .
Is that commond to not have snow in january?we have never had that much snow those ten years I have lived here in the south of Sweden. I rember this from my childhood. Before we got electrisity, that happen when I was about 8 years old in 1952. I can remember they had to change the wick in our lantern, they was in use all evings, every day, so they got worn out, or burned out. Thank you for the video. Ps. Our lantern was with a long narrow glass and we used paraffin. A lot of smoke sometimes.
try Carbon felt instaed of Cotton Wick. You never need to change the Wick again. you only have to cut the size you need by yourself. Buy 100% Carbon Felt. 👍
