Homemade Candle Lantern from tin cans!

Second item in my DIY camping gear series is a lamp. It's also my first attempt at soldering sheet metal - I'm a blacksmith not a tinsmith! If all goes well, I'll have both a light source for camping and a handy new skill for future projects. The book I was working from is called 'Toys From Tins' from EP Publishing (ISBN 0 7158 0794 3) and is a 1982 English re-print of a 1980 French title 'Jouets en fer-blanc' by Dessain et Tolra Chapters: 00:00 Intro and prep 09:03 Making door 16:56 Candle holder 19:15 Roof 29:31 First lighting 30:03 Tweaks Homemade Camping Gear series playlist:    • Homemade oilcloth tent - from a dust ...   #MYOG Make Your Own Gear If you want to join those supporting my channel (starting at £1!) you can check out my Patreon page here: www.patreon.com/user?u=37285132 Patrons get lots of exclusive videos and updates on myself and my projects.
