This has been posted a bunch of times here before, but never the less, it's a good idea if you don't want soot and black shit on the things you have to flame sterilize.

Make it a step by step tutorial with pictures and stuff and then PM a mod if they haven't seen it already and ask'em to submit it to the FAQ, or you might just be able to submit it to the forum.

That's a nice lamp. I would like to suggest a minor improvement:
One problem that I had when I made something similar, was that the flame started out small, but grew alarmingly as the air in the lamp got warm and expanded, which pushed more and more alcohol up the wick. If this happens, just pierce a second hole near the edge of the lid (pinprick size is big enough), and the lamp will burn with a stable flame.

i made one of those bad boys, and i didnt really have a problem with a large flame. i mean, it might have been a large flame, i just didnt have a problem with it
however one thing i did notice, after about a week of sitting in my closet, i went to get the torch down and well, no alcohol left in it! it all vaporized i guess. so /shrug
