    I think the stencil issue is simply because it was being pulled up and moved around a little as you went over with the roller. Maybe secure the stencil with a couple pieces of masking tape.

    • @jeffersoneinstein9641
      @jeffersoneinstein9641 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      I think you're right and I'd probably also cut off the excess length of the stencil so one could ideally tape down all 4 sides tightly so it couldn't move.

    • @joewendelberger863
      @joewendelberger863 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Stencil adhesive would fix this issue

    • @AEON.
      @AEON. ปีที่แล้ว +4

      There was paint was on the back of the stencil - you have to clean it off after each use.

    I've been using this machine to stencil ammunition boxes for the army almost 20 years now and to be honest it takes a while to get the hang of it. First of all although using a lot of paint will get the job done faster it becomes very messy very fast. I get much better results when i have barely enough paint on the brush/applicator so it requires about 10 passes or even more but the stencils are much more precise. Make sure to have a clean rug around to wipe the board's face and back regularly cause it will gather paint residue and it will ruin your work. The only problem with making a lot of passes with little paint is you need to make sure the board doesnt move on you so hold it firm or use some tape to stay put. There's something very fullfilling about using these old ways of doing things. Sorry for my bad english, not my primary language.

  • @joshuapopich5215
    @joshuapopich5215 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    That plastic funnel works great. If you stuff it in the fuel fill hole tight enough to make a seal it won’t let you overfill and prevents spills. I have the old copper ones too but they stay on the shelf.

  • @hisnameisiam808
    @hisnameisiam808 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Our lanterns we just bought because of your suggestion were used with regular unleaded over the weekend. A bit rough when starting but once running they were bright and awesome just like our propane lanterns. Thanks brother and we will use premium from now on most likely, until the time comes when it is unavailable. Hopefully never haha.

  • @theanxious
    @theanxious ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Awesome kit! I'm a sucker for doing things the "old way". I use my over 110 year old oil lantern weekly to this day. I buy oil and wick, and I ALWAYS have light. I carry a flashlight that cost over $100 and I've still been left without light a handful of times. But my trusty oil lantern hasn't failed me yet. My dad has an older Coleman lantern like yours that he was given by his father. We still use it now and again when we need some light where there is none. This stuff just works! It HAS worked, DOES work and WILL continue to work! I have nothing against new technology, but I also live by the saying, "They don't make things the way they used to" 100%. They laugh at me now with their bright battery powered lanterns, but someday I might just have the last laugh... and I'll be glad to share my light with my neighbors when that day comes!

    At first I thought this was a little frivolous then I realized how neat this really is. I use a digital label maker for everything in my shop so I really get a kick out of how old school this is.

    • @20TonChop
      @20TonChop ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I still find it frivolous regardless. But if you have the money to waste then it why not. Nothing will beat a good sharpie when you run out of batteries or labels for the digital machine or paint and paper for the letter punch.
      I am sure the stencil comes in handy when you have 500 items on a conveyor belt to label but other than that, it is just for vanity or cosmetic reasons.

    • @CornishJohn
      @CornishJohn ปีที่แล้ว

      From a purely practical point of view it is frivolous for home use but it's fun and you will be in demand from friends. This sort of thing you can always sell and get your money back which negates the cost if you have the surplus.

  • @randyyeager

    spray the back of the cardboard with glue from an aerosol can and press it down. Paint is seeping past the edges of the letters. Leave it on for a minute or 2. Make sure you use glue that holds it in place but peels off easily. The glue they use to hold T-shirts down to be printed should work.

    • @chriskeating5926

    • @joshuamason1867
      @joshuamason1867 ปีที่แล้ว

      I didn't think of the glue or rubber cement thing but I was definitely thinking about how it seeped along the backside of the stencil. it also didn't look like he cleaned the back of it off in-between each time (unless I just missed it) and was basically stamping the same overrun each time.

    • @MarkJarz

    I tent came at least four weeks every year and I've been doing it for 25 years. Hunting out west, hunting/fishing around home, and some camping for fun on family property. I have three Colman lanterns. Use them all the time. I only use white gas. Colman used to make a neat spring loaded funnel that screwed onto the the white gas can and sealed on the lantern - no muss no fuss. I haven't seen them in stores for a long time. I have a couple of them.
    There are all kinds of new things out there for camping. I STILL have my patrol table and kitchen I made 24 years ago. The patrol table is a good project and it makes a heck of a knock down picnic table for camping.

    I think when lifting the roller up and repositioning it for the second pass might possibly give a better result.

    @wranglerstar what would you recommend if you could only have one.
    The UCO lantern with candles (3 candle version) or this dual flame new dual fuel lantern? Thanks again for great information and content.
