Had a look at this post on the October 1956 X246 and went to check my pot plant counter balance speculum plated Tilley X246 and it is dated...
Thank you. I have only found one 236 here which had a 237 conversion done to it ( or it was a 237 with a 236 Major collar) which I changed by...
I found this one last year but only bought it this year. It is the third of the same date 237 and thankfully this one doesn't have a pinholed...

Made a small start. Drilled the cut off steel pin out of the brass sleave on the preheater. Also have a piece of brass to extend a generator to...
Yes! They are missing. I am hoping to get it to back to a working as intended condition.
I think it should be. My 826 has 10 34 on it which is October 1934.
@Piotrek The only numbers I can see. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Thank you for the link. I have looked for the scratched date but have not seen it yet. I will have to check with a magnifying glass. @Piotrek
