Hi newly joined member so I apologise for any breach of protocol.
Planned renovating an old caravan gas light as a project and bought one on Ebay. It was missing ceramic mantle support called a No 1 clay. searches on internet have proved fruitless.No 2 clays are plentiful and ddespite firms making the mantles no one seems to make the support.
Any ideas gratefully received.

Regards Norseman

Thanks for info I tried the site but expensive mantles available but no ceramic supports.
Sellers on ebay state that mantles are rare.Not so Auerlich make them and are available through Wilmonds and Base-Camp.Suggs Lighting sell No 2 supports but it appears No 1 clays are very rare so anybody out there with such a lamp be VERY careful.
Happy Camping

Good to see another gas lighter on here! It may be possible to convert to a No.2 from a No.1 if you can post a picture of the lamp and it's fitting I may be able to help. I restore gas lighting equipment so should have some parts that will do the job!

A bodger after my own heart.As No1 clays are rare and No2 clays are available from Suggs lighting I thought of converting. I have a brass fitting with No2 thread and a pal who will tap No1 thread to make adaptor. I have a supply of No2 mantles from a shop clearout. Many thanks for the offer not up to photos on net maybe daughter can help.

Regards Ray
