I had a rain lamp given to me, love it! Oil pumps up to a millhouse with a working water wheel (and to the top for the vanes obviously). Problem is the oil seems to pump out too fast and misses the wheel, hits the basin and splashes all over. Im thinking the oil that is in it is too thin, is there a...

My rain lamp is a very large swag lamp. It takes 4 pints of oil to run mine, but mine pumps up 2 seperate hoses. 1 runs the water mill wheel, and the other down the lamp strings. I think it really depends on how deep or shallow your pump sets down in the bottom base. You want the entire bottom of th...

It sounds like you have the same rain lamp as I have. I purchased mine at a garage sale. It was full of dead bugs. I dumped out the old mineral oil and cleaned it with hot water. I then let it dry good and added new mineral oil. It ran great for a few days but now wont pump the oil to the water whee...

Robin, I have just undertaken that task. It took me 2 days, but it is DONE! I took it out to the garage and went to work. First lean it over and drain as much oil as you can. Then hang it low enough so you can work on it comfortably. (I drove a nail in the ceiling and bent it over to hold it). I the...

A couple of questions arise out of your post while trying to visualize what you have there... Did you remove the base while leaving the sink mounted to the wall and balanced on the drain and water supply pipes when you installed your floor covering? Did the pipes run up through the center of the bas...

Just out of curiosity, did you actually use plaster or did you use joint compound and refer to it as plaster? This is important because many people inocently think they are the same thing and they are not. Plaster is plaster and joint compound is not. Joint compound is a manmade concoction with viny...

As a Historical Restoration Contractor, we often run into problems with older homes that someone has done work on, that just didnt turn out quite like they had hoped and then they put the place up for sale and the next owner calls us and says fix it. Most of the time it turns out that it was a poor ...

We have a number of rain lamps, some of which Ive repaired with success. Its too much to expect that any lamp found on Ebay is going to be ready to plug in and go. Theyre usually clogged up and dont take too well to being drained and refilled, especially if theyve been out of service for a time. You...
