To shrink wet canvas, it needs to be dried with a hairdryer rather than just being left to dry out. It may take more than one wetting and drying to shrink to a tight fit.

I've bought from either site, so I can't comment on quality.

If the post by Runegutt on this thread is correct, parts are the same as for Optimus stoves:-

Thanks Chris

 

control box next - but that's much more of a challenge as it's the tropicalised version with the rubber cables which are terminally perished and it has white lettering

I've just searched "24 volt electronic ignition Hotchkiss" and found these 2 sites, which may help if you haven't already seen them.

I wonder if that's the same 'Dashwood' as the people that made my trailer 72 years ago Guy ?

As the Grace's Guide for Dashwood is dated 1939 and looking at the range of products that they were making then, it is likely to be the same Dashwood making trailers in 1944. Also, I doubt that there would be 2 engineering companies called Dashwood.

Just received the Key Card courtesy of Wally, mine is on the top line 97 ZB 75

I was interested in the CAT.REF. top right hand corner which says Dashwood, is this the maker of these trailers ?

From Grace's Guide To British Industrial History (http://www.gracesguide.co.uk/1939_Suppliers_to_the_Aircraft_Industry#D) :-

Dashwood Engineering Ltd., 27 Grosvenor Place, London, S.W.1, supplies machined parts and components for aircraft. Among such parts are fork-ends and tubular struts, undercarriage details and other parts which call for precision in manufacture. Mechanically pressed parts in high-tensile steel, electric and atomic welding, sheet metal work and so forth are other specialities of the company.
