Burner identification

flywheel61 · Burner identification

I received this burner with my new Bing engine, it obviously doesn't belong with it and Mirko (our German expert) says it doesn't belong with any German engine he's seen. It looks to be too professional to be a scrathch job. All brass with a wooden handle and the absorption material looks to be compressed sawdust. Top measures 95 x 35 15mm excluding the handle.

Has anyone got any ideas as to it's origin.

Cheers

I contacted the winner of the Wells and he's buying the burner. I directed him to this thread and he did a little surfing on the remainer of the forum and was very impressed. Hopefully we'll get a new member.

Cheers

Nice one Chris.
Might as well have the burner go to the engine its meant for.
Let him know if he finds he needs to make any new parts to join the forum and contact me and I can help him out with plans.
