Making a Rock Oil Lamp?
I was wondering if anyone in this group has ever made rock oil lamps before?
If so, I could desperately use some pointers. I'm trying to make one for the first time, but I'm not sure how big to make the hole, how large of a wick to buy, or what type of glass holder to use. They look fairly simple to make, I just need to figure out some of the details. Just a piece of flat river rock or granite and attach a small bowl or ash tray to the bottom to hold the oil. For those who don't know what I'm talking about, a picture example of a rock oil lamp can be seen he http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2005-3/981928/Rock_oil_lamp.jpg Any info would be appreciated! Thanks, James |
