Brass Gong
 

Dose anyone out there have any info or even a brass warning gong as fitted to steam tractors?

From what I have fathomed mysel, my engine should have one with a centre Plunger and it should be screwed on the inside of the canopy.

Any leads greatfully received.

Surely you mean a 'bell'?

How about an Aveling one?

The pictures he has referred me too have a bell like this with a lever hanging down. Near as I can tell like the one above.

The one in my pic is what I have on the Marshall, it was found in an antiques shop near Chatsworth.

Does anyone have something similar to sort Chris out, otherwise we shall have to copy mine!

In short yes, except the bell is slightly different profile. Just need to take all the components to the foundry and have a few sets cast... Although Chris told me himself that that wasn't what he was after... has he now change his mind?

Have got one coming in from the States next week.
