I found some decent photos of the lamp I was after and the overall dimensions...so from that I was able to draw up and start making some!

Of course these little fittings are available to buy as brass castings off the shelf but wheres the fun in that! I've yet to turn the parts for the little chimney on the top and make the little handle too! The lens is clear acrylic and actually works as a lens too! The vent holes in the bottom for the oil lamp are 0.6mm diameter and the lamps are approx 10mm x 12mm. The little washer on the side acts as a little sidelight.
