I have chased down a guy who could make reproduction reflectors for Darley beacons. My question; is there any interest out there and what sort of quantity are we looking at. Best guess would be about $30 a copy.

The Bowl type, or the Cone type....or both ??

I might be intereted in two of them. The original ones are hard to find.

I'm thinking the bowl type for now.

Joe I could probably make the cone type if your lead doesn't pan out. Let me know how it works out.

Are the Darley bowl type similar to the ones inside a Harrington-Seaberg? I'd be interested in this type if it can be used in the HS.

Andy, the reflectors in my HS are glass and nothing like Darley reflectors.

They are much like any modern 8" reflector!

I would disagree with that. Darley bowl reflectors have a rim around them that I've only seen on Darley's for fastening the reflector to the porthole door. That is, the type of reflectors used in a single bulb per section Darley signal.

I meant Seaberg reflectors could use any modern reflector with little effort. :Phil:
