Last night I was fucking around with this 1940s/50s Luxor light.
I’m going to cram in the innards from a Busch and Müller Seculite Skully gave me, but I had to make a new mount and way to secure the lens.
It was brilliantly frustrating.
Think I’ve nailed it.
Edit: I realised this post isn’t clear, I made (fabricated is definitely too posh a word) the little ally bracket from some tube I had.
I flattened it, bent it, drilled and tapped it. It replaced the original Luxor incandescent bulb holder which the red dome bolted to, I re-sized the original bolt to M4 (it was close already and I had an M4 tap and die)
There is now enough room for the gubbins from the busted B&M rear light and the red dome is held in place.
Only took all fucking evening!
