Re: Rayline Searchlight Parts

Hint Ron knows more about old things than Barbara...Last edited by Tim Powell; 03-28-2015 at 07:57 AM.

Re: Rayline Searchlight Parts
Nice- now you need to get a nice zippered canvas cover for it. I've got one and still need to polish the light ~3x a year to keep it looking that way.

Re: Rayline Searchlight Parts
Wow!! That looks great!
Many years ago, I used to work on old Navy Dead Reckoning Tracers (DRT). They had many gears, and belts. Other than the X, Y worm gear we were able to find most of the parts from the following outfit:

Re: Rayline Searchlight Parts
I took the the light apart a la Sky's example of a few years back, then took the pieces to a place in Toronto, who re-chromed all the pieces. I sent the reflective mirror to New York to have it re-silvered. The problem with that was, some of the back surface was stained too much to get a 100% result on the re-silvering, but it came out a lot better than it was.
Chroming was $400 and re-silvering was $50.Gary

Dreamboat, your searchlight is awesome! I have same model and it needs a rechrome job too. I am in Toronto area, who did the rechrome for you? I may have mine done next year too.
