Tbh, I tried a test area of the Strawflower and thought it was a little dull, so I then went with the Sun Yellow. The tank I have was already...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Hi. For anybody interested, here's the fount I'm doing sprayed using Plastikote Sun Yellow. It's a little...
Charlatans. But equally, they might as well ask a $million - nobody worth their salt will pay it...
It's perfect timing, because I'm about to do precisely that, on exactly the same fount. I reckon I'm going to use Rustoleum Strawflower spray...
Nope, defo not! Now on a similar, yet inverted note, does anyone have a reasonable paint match code/colour for that 'mustard'? yellow on the BR 49...
@Tony Press Crikey, I don't remember that! It was from the UK, as I haven't bought anything internationally from eBay since the good old days of...
@Anthony See this thread from 2018: New to Forum I bought mine on eBay back then.
No mate, but it's curious that most that have turned up dated that month/year appear to be such.

Cheers Jeff :thumbup:
Quote MYN: 'Well done. I suppose you have already tested for leaks?' Yap, all done. The Rapid was leaking out of the top nipple that screws over...
Fettled and sorted, with seals and a new Rapid from Base Camp. I used copper slip on the jet and nozzle threads, as recommended by Mackburner,...
I now understand '0724', is week 7, 1962, 4th day of week.

Not the best pic, but it's grim and dull outside, so a quick snap of the contrasting colours. On the left, newest addition in Metallic Brass,...
@Sedgman I've got two of those, one I picked up in mid-2018 and this one here a couple of weeks back. I've just this second finished restoring...
Speculum too, with the better loop handle. Guardsman's are my favourite go-to lantern if I'm honest - so simple and far more reliable than the B's...
Hi. Nice find there. Not been on for a while and my interest in lanterns comes and goes, though there's always several ready to go 'on the shelf'....
Nice job mate, not been around for a while hope you're well and more than ready for the Winter ahead. Is that a .308 casing??
