Ventilator Rods, Type II


The new casting arrived in the mail today.   As you can see, it's larger than the original and somewhat different in shape, but a big improvement over the cup hooks used earlier.  Now I need to decide whether it's worthwhile buying more of them.  Our usual policy in such circumstances is to put off taking a decision until the parts are no longer in production.   That makes it easy.

    If they are not hollow castings you could have one of the metal workers put them on a grinding wheel and shape them a little bit.

    But as you say a nice find!
