I tried posting this request under the "wanted" classification and got absolutely zero response which was sort of surprising.  What I'm seeking is a good, sharp photograph of a Schoenner chimney cap with a scale alongside.  I need to mill a replacement cap and all I have to work from are some pictures that don't tell me how big or show the profile in sufficient detail to allow me to make a drawing and subsequently mill the pieces

This is the cap I'm seeking, can anyone help me?



Thanks,

I'm sorry. That's a rare engine you have and an even rarer chimney. I've got a few early German engines but none by Schoenner yet.

Good luck with your hunt.

As Manx says, its rare!

Mirko in Germany may be your best bet here, or possibly ebay may come up with similar for pics.

I have a Falk with chimney cap, but its not really like this.
