Default Batten terminal 2 point

Hi all

I'm looking for 4 of the Batten, Terminal 2 point connectors for my wire-3 truck. At least I believe that is what the correct name is.

If anyone has some spare ones in good shape I'd like to hear from you please.

Jordan, you'll never find enough (and beside, you're in competition with me!!) Lets make some up. I think I have a pattern or two here to go from.

Gentlemen, in the business that I work for we have many items custom made, machined plated etc.
If I had a clear picture and perhaps some basic dimensions I could inquire in our breaker shop as to the feasibility of such a project.
At the very least I could try to get some contact info regarding our vendors that could undertake this type of work.
Chris

I'm thinking resin impregnated 'something' to simulate bakelite. The hardware is brass nuts let in from the backside. The lettering can be done and dimensions worked out. I have no choice, I need to come up with a bunch, unless Frank V-R does have a box full.

Calling Chris Suslowicz...do you have details for a (or maybe an original?) two terminal batten?

Does anybody know the Dutch fellow that owns the HUW in Jordan's pic?
