[Grizz1963]

Got a message from Huddersfield this morning.......

“Hi Grizz, found these..... if you want them, they are yours for postage”

Well, first item....... I knew exactly where it would go, depending on its size when offered up to the front bumper on the Rezin Rockit.

But I can pass on this one if needed.



Second item......

BULLS EYE !

I have had an idea to build a tallish fake Visible gas pump for years, using an obsolete 47kg gas bottle, a compressor tank and a fire extinguisher to create a tower.

Finding a decent, large diameter clear plastic tube, pipe, call it what you like, has been a bit more problematic as I have never seen anything like that in my travels.

However - nothing stops me from creating a clear tube, using 2mm to 3mm thick Perspex or similar, turned into a tube, bolted together and mounted.

So the second item on offer was of much more interest, as it can be incorporated as a lamp, like the one I made for the carport.

Spin aluminium and it can be painted any colour.



Inside already white and reflective.



There are many many styles that were available in the 1920’s nd they are monsters for their time.

Different styles of visible dispensers existed too.

Some examples.







And a few examples of the evolution.

Different to your typical modern forecourt of course.
