Handmade Copper and Brass Lantern

This is my first Instructable so go easy. I'm more of a video/demo kind of guy so I have provided greater detail in that format. This project was a fun opportunity to create a functional and nice looking handmade copper and brass lantern. The video demonstrates everything that is needed. This project was made using the following:

• Thin copper sheet
• Plumbing fittings
  • 1/2" female adapter
  • 1/2" plug
  • 3/4" cap
  • 1" x 1 1/4" coupling
• Glass bottle( I used one of those Starbucks glass bottles)
• Brass sheet
• Solder
• Flux
• A wick for your flame
• Hand tools

Overall, it was a fun project and I'm pleased with the end result.

***If I were to revisit this project I would suggest providing more holes in the top. It is too restrictive and results in a small flame. Also, you don't need a lathe but I used it because that is just one of the several tools and machines that I own.***

Enjoy!!
