Hello all, I got this AL8 track lamp back on the 15 may 2023. We finally had time to finish her off, I was waiting on the weather so Michael could respray the frame and fount. I needed a good reflector to come along as the original one that came with it was copper, and I wanted a good chrome reflector. As with some Tilley parts, I just seem lucky enough to find them. Mind you this time I had to buy a Tilley R1, which had a very bad fount, for next to nothing. Now I have some spare parts left over, which is always a good thing. Then it was a matter of finding time to do all the polishing, today was the day, all, polished, painted and finished. Yeah. I have also changed the fount over to the same period, and put the original away for safe keeping, as it has VR (Victorian Railway) and a number engraved on it. So here are some photos. The last photo is as found.
@JEFF JOHNSON @Tony Press Thanks, luckily I have Michael, because there is no way I could spray like him.
Thanks mate, I believe they find me mate, or its just plain old luck. Either way I'm very happy with the results.
