Beautiful design and top-shelf craftsmanship. DIY projects are the order of the day in the Philippines. Items not made in this region and imported under a tax treaty are obscenely expensive with import tax, shipping, and VAT. We purchase a few quality tools and other products that we want to last for the long haul. For everything else, we attempt a DIY. This wonderful design may become part of the emergency dorm survival kit I am currently building for Beautiful Daughter who will soon be a college student. Your video is highly appreciated and you have a new subscriber. Watching from our "secret retirement location" in Bulacan province, on Luzon, in the Republic of the Philippine Islands.
Excellent build sir! I especially liked the appliance paint, something a lot of people would have missed. Respect for your patience, skill and ingenuity sir.

epic lantern build. definitely on par with the uco one they're so proud of. yours is awesome!! great work!!
Thank you
Muy bonita gracia por compartir.
Great work, and I think I'll make one myself. But...why didn't you tape the inside to maintain some reflective property?
This is an option, I was more concerned about rust as I was planning on using it in winter conditions.
I ended up making this but I used a glass jar and cut the bottom off so that the lid was the bottom of the lantern.
Nice intro good execution good production quality...sweet video my lad you have yourself a sub
Thank you
@@bizzarepack9436 any time
i like it :)
Thank You
Inspirador! Gracias!
Muchas Gracias!
I've been thinking up a design for a 4 hour candle lantern. I might see if this would work well souped-up to fit one of those.
I am sure it would work, the only concern I would have is the friction fit for the base. The weight of the candle might be an issue with a larger candle, whereas a small tea light was not.
@@bizzarepack9436 There not very big candles. Their those five hour ones actually not four like I originally said. You can find them at the dollar store. They are often marketed as emergency candles. They aren't to big, burn well and bright and do last a while. Much longer than a tea light which is why I want to make a lantern that uses them for camping.
@@killgora1 If the bottom is tight enough it may not be an issue.
Really good video and good craftsmanship.. But the music got a bit much haha!
Thanks for the feedback
Totally agree. I had to mute the sound as the music was spoiling the content of what turned out to be an excellent project.
Can you maybe share the pattern paper for the lantern, i really want to make one with your design
Sorry, I do not have the pattern
Ever try sanding the inside of the glass to make it frosted?
Nice long build.
Too much for me to try.
I suppose you could, though it would diminish the light of the candle.
In the Philippines, several products come in small glass bottles with a "dimpled" exterior surface. I have been cutting glass bottles for many years to make various projects including shade/windshields for candles that many folks use at the cemetery. The dimpled glass does not block much of the light but does add another dimension to the glow of the candlelight. Cheap distilled gin is the main product. The bottles are recycled and used for paint thinner, denatured alcohol, acetone, cheap varnish, and a host of other products. Thankfully, these bottles are not difficult to find
@@NewHampshireJack Where I am no stores sell anything like that. Lucky to find glass anything.
Quick and easy?
With the proper tools and experience it can be. But quality results can need patience.

Poor guy, a large flame just inches from an open acetone can. SMH
All is well that ends well. Nice end product.
