Hi all,

I am looking for a twin pulley to fit a Lucas A133 alternator.

Were 12v or 12/24v Snatches fitted with A133s, and were they twin pulley? (I have a mental image of the 2nd alternator slung on one side with a single belt?)

What did Tithonus use?

Alec

Location of unit command posts?

Red Infantry, Blue Armoured?

Alec

Or forward position and rear position?

Alec

Blue advance, Red retreat?

Alec

To place on unmarked containers to indicate contents? Red Petrol, Blue Kerosene?

Alec

Hmm, alignment/coupling marks? Red to red, blue to blue etc?

Alec

Assembly area?

Alec

Welcome aboard!

Of interest one of the battlecruisers -either Von Der Tann or Derrflinger was raised just prior to WW2 and remained on the surface upside down with a fouled keel looking like a small green island for the rest of the war -every so often the salvagers pumped some air into it to stop it sinking back.Steve

That was Derfflinger, they hauled it down to Rosyth in '46.

There are three books which cover the topic admirably - The Man who bought a Navy by Gerald Bowman, Cox's Navy by Tony Booth and also Jutland to Junkyard by S.C. George.

Jutland to Junkyard is my favourite, it along with TMWBAN, was collated from the remaining first-hand accounts. From Robertson's flat bar and screws to Cox and Danks winches and air chambers.

Wonderful engineering books and worth a read!!!! :thumbsup:

I have read them many times over the years.

Or an E30 based M3!!!

Why did I give off my 325i Sport........ :embarrassed:

Wild prices for those now as well. :mad:

Hi Folks,

Anyone have experience of the No.6 Burner as issued to them for a personal cooker? :-)

Alec.

Looks like burning marks to me as well, someone washing the original bolt/rivet off and giving it a bit too much welly.

Alec.

Superb!

Its true, you really can buy just about anything on eBay.....:-D

Alec

I have heard of this before, its not a new idea but this chap is due credit for inspiring people again! :goodidea:

Alec.

Ooh, tasty!

Alec.

Bedford HA?

I've been looking for one myself for about three years now!

Once common, now rocking horse poo.

Alec.

Hmm, broad question time, would it be used for communication/identification purposes?

Alec.

I was thinking along the lines of photographic, but it looks a little too compact for the era.

Could it be said the box contains an accumulator, feeding two devices/connections, actuated by a switch on a wander-lead?

Alec.

A measurement device to monitor road conditions/angles/corrugations?

Alec.

A counter system for dispensing or pacing something out?

Alec

Forum Kit Chatter Weapons/Accessories Ex M.O.D. No1 burner (petrol cooker) Has videos etc.

Hi, yes I contributed to that. I'm now fishing for pictures!

Alec

Hi Folks,

Does anyone have pictures of No.1 Cookers/Burners in action? :-D

I have seen only a few on the web :cry:

The old favourite (no idea where it was culled from):

And John Mortar (or is it his son these days?)
