An interesting item has arrived.
But what do you think it is? 20170310_185153.jpg Perhaps a precision spring? 20170310_185514-1.jpg A fuel can? 2017-03-10 20.19.44.jpg Maybe a canvas stretcher, with wooden poles? 20170310_204409.jpg Last clue. Yes, it does say WTF. W.T.F & SON LTD 1/1940

And it will smarten up very nicely.
I'm fairly confident it will be fully operational.

I think it was the only one for sale, Adrian.
Prior to this one, I had not even seen a photo of one, so I'm very pleased to have it. Certainly is a complex thing. I must ask why the many rings around the cylinder? Are they to prevent damage to the cylinder wall, or some form of heat-sink? Must say, I wouldn't have really expected the latter.

Tony, the rings are purely to prevent damage to the thin cylinder. It is just a transfer pump and doesn't work at too high a pressure.
Not easy to find, well done!
