What system units would you like Bernard? The British standard media scales are: a potato, double-decker bus, olympic swimming pool, premier league football pitch, Wales, South America or the Moon. At a guess I think its somewhere between the double-decker & the olympic swimming pool. I'll go below, I've got a little diagram & come back with it.

Although it looks rather like an open ended one Wally :embarrassed: Indeed some of those thermionic devices do look rather like this, its not that either

A very ingenious suggestion Bernard but its not that. In case anyone thinks this is some idle doodle (sorry) this a sketch at the end of a report that at one time was classed as secret.

An easy one now:

Changing from the Lucas to the AC Delco distributor is fine. But there is a major problem: The Lucas distributor uses a pair of identical contact breakers, which are not difficult to obtain. The AC Delco uses a contact breaker that is the mirror image of the other. One is obtainable but the other is not. As for sparking plugs if your engine is all tuned up nice & behaving itself & you don't use the choke (I have removed my choke cable) then I run RSN13P but if you find they carbon up & you want the heat to burn it off (because the tip protrudes more) many like to use RSN12Y. I'm not familiar with using RS5-7R

I think it might be Avis. They were always on the left as you entered the stalls at the Hop Farm, I think there were in a comparable position at the racecourse. It is very much the sort of thing that they sell.

Its all about "slick" these days Even Stonehenge has just had the "slick" treatment (and oh yes entrance fee doubled I believe)

The difference seems to be the mounting arrangement

That seems to be its début Bob as it doesn't appear in the 1908 edition. I took my scan from Manual of Elementary Military Hygiene 1912. Bob may I ask, are you an avid manual collector or is it just an odd book you happen to have?

I suspect it may have hosted a MOULD repeater?

Well #3 is an early RCCB, I used to have one on my Carawagon & #4 is the generator input. I expect you will find in that socket like structure something resembling the pins of a 13A plug. #2 I suppose was for a fan & #1 a power distribution board for modems

Quite, none the less all very important stuff. Guns, smart uniforms, flags & cunning plans will all be for nothing without the largely unrecognised work of the Regimental Sanitary Police working within the Field Hygiene Sections to provide safe water & disposing of inevitables. I can't find a post 1945 reference to Sanitary Police but they must called something less formidable now I suppose.

Sorry Bernard still no idea who he is is but I have every confidence that the result was achieved by observation & clear logical thinking. The stone version looks as if it could be more hastily constructed than the Beehive that made an appearance last year. http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread.php?38637-Nothing-new-at-Chelsea

Yes Bernard, well done, absolutely spot on! Not as complex or as cunning as many have thought this is merely Camp Incinerator (Stones)

Yes The stones at the edge form a ring as it were. The diagram is a vertical bisection. Nope

Andy you are a shrewd observer of clues. You are getting warmer still! Indeed you do build a fire in it

Not that sort of thing Tony, although an interesting point

Not really Richard as its going to be getting warm :-D

If you've been out on the town all evening that might be on your mind Bernard, for several reasons it would not be the thing to use this for.

Nope nothing like that Lauren

Nope none of those Rick

Yes pretty much, Wally

Nope Richard I don't think Reeves & Hughes* would recommend this as adequate support. * As in

Wally not seed crushing/grinding. Nope this a different book from another era
