      Carbide lamp has calcium carbide placed in a lower chamber, the generator. The upper reservoir is then filled with water. A threaded valve or other mechanism is used to control the rate at which the water is allowed to drip into the chamber containing the calcium carbide. By controlling the rate of water flow, the production of acetylene gas is controlled. This, in turn, controls the flow rate of the gas and the size of the flame at the burner, and thus the amount of light it produces.This type of lamp generally has a reflector behind the flame to help project the light forward

    Dude, that is not a lamp, it is not stone and 'restore' is not the word I would use. I have no idea what it is, but I'm sure it is not supposed to blow steam out of every seam. If you did more than clean and paint it, let me know. You did try, so kudos for giving a shot. Let's see some more as you improve your technique.

      Thank you for watching the video and sharing your feedback with me. I think we should call it the "ancient pressure cooker ".It works by trapping steam inside, increasing the pressure and temperature, which allows food to cook faster.The place where you see steam escaping is the steam release valve. The reason you see the steam release valve pipe in the video is that we heated the water inside the container to a specific temperature after pouring it in.When the internal pressure becomes too high, the valve opens to release excess steam, preventing the cooker from exploding.

      @@PerfectRestorationUSA Sorry, I was speaking about the steam coming out of the seam. The seal is not good. One question, how do you get the food inside and where?

      Look up carbide lamp images on Google. It will become clear.
