Blow-torch Artisan Lamps

I have been trying to grab a few moments to increase the number of Artisan Lamps for Entangle in Dayboro.

I managed to finish a couple of lamps made from plumbers blow-torches.

When I make these I try to do so without too much change to the original vintage blow-torches just in case in the future someone wants to dismantle the lamps and change them back to functional blow-torches.

The finished lamps.

The blow-torches don't look pretty before I start working on them.
