ABSTRACT:
A method for making a fluid lamp assembly which includes a fiberglass wick, consisting of approximately 100 individual fibers in a bundle, is inserted in a glass tube, adjusted with its tip a desired distance above opening, and fused in place by heating to 600 degrees Centigrade for 20 minutes. Fusing temperatures of from about 500 to 600 degrees Centigrade may be employed, for times of from about 10 minutes to about one hour, with a longer fusing time employed with lower temperatures. This provides a premanent wick that is not consumed in use of the lamp assembly.
