Title: Could not believe this
Post by: Spitfire on December 23, 2021, 07:40:21 PM: We were out shopping the other day on the Greyhound retail park Chester and saw this in a shop window, could not believe it, the shop sold unlikely items made into lamps.

I truly hope the tank was rotted underneath before someone did that to it!

Post by: Athame57 on December 24, 2021, 12:23:26 AM: What was the price? Maybe it is a chance to grab a bargain basement spare tank? ;D

I wondered where the cable entry was. ;)

Post by: andy120t on December 24, 2021, 04:06:41 PM: What's the shop called? Worth a call to see if it is a cheap tank!

Post by: Spitfire on December 24, 2021, 07:36:18 PM: Found the Facebook page for the shop, "Mark's Quirky lighting", the page also shows what looks like a BSA Bantam tank lamp.

Cheers
