I liked the way it came out, I hope you all do too. I'm gonna figure out a way to do some good with these old lanterns, not sure how yet. I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I will have red white and blue and will light them on Memorial day, Independence day, Veterans day and when people are in need of prayer. Cheesy lol, I know but it's what I can do from here.

Any tips or tricks for clean up J I do a vinegar water bath in a 5 gal bucket. And use a 4 inch brass wheel on a drill for now. It works but will be making a electrolysis tank this coming spring. I also chuck rifle cleaning brushes to get in the narrow spots. When you get it to bare metal choose what you like for a finish. The linseed oil is great, it makes the metal turn gray, black over time. If you like the shiney tinney look then use a high heat clear spray paint. Thank you for your service!

I really like your idea of the tri-color lanterns for the service remembrances. I think I will borrow your idea to greet my son if he ever gets home on leave.

They have quoted Psalms 119 105 and it's sinking in. They told me I could do some good, I'm thinking maybe I can with Hospice or something. We'll see.....
