Good slide show. Interesting to see the rebuild sequence undertaken by the pro's. Bit different to mine.

As far as I know Pearson, the Gold Star specialist makes them, or at least a few years back he did.
I use an Eddy Dow Duetto TLS on a 9", looks better than the simple standard single lever arrangement and works better.
