Steampunk Old Smokey

Hi all,
this is a very fast and easy weekend project.
I need at least 3 hours for construction and work.
Some month ago I buy a Steam-generator for ships and trains in a model making store.
I couldn’t find something where I can fit it in and put it a shelf.
Now I got some old brass parts from Oil lamps.
During disassemble all parts I found one part that looks like a smoke pipe.
I think about a desktop steamer or a portable steam generator.
It must be built lightweight and very small after some minutes I got this idea and start with this project.

Parts list:
- Brass Oil Lamp or only the part to adjust the fire
- Steam-generator for 5-6 Volts is the best choice
- Wires in different diameter
- Battery Pack 4.8 Volts with 2/3 AAA cells for model making
- A switch with metal flap
- A plastic corner

Step 1:

First step is to remove the rim for the glass.
I cut it away with a Dremel.
Then I unscrew the fire regulator and the nice ornamental moulding.
You will notice that you can turn the direction of the fire adjustor and you are able to fit it backwards.
If you fit it in this direction you get a nice Smoke pipe with Ornamental basement.

I like this, but when/if I make it it will be for use with incense cones instead of a smoke generator. However, I might struggle to find an old oil lamp part but I do like the end result.

Where did you get the smoke generator?

He said in a model making store...but my guesses are you could probably buy one off of Ebay or amazon.
I found one on Ebay, its found here:
