Killybegs Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 About 5 years ago, I bought some etched steel frames that came complete with a magnet to be fixed inside the smokebox and a set of numbers/letters. I didn't use them all but can't for the life of me find the packet. I probably put it somewhere safe. Any ideas on where I might have bought these on line?

Silver Sidelines Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I do believe that frames are marketed under the label 'Smiths by W & T Manufacturing' - at least that is what is says on my packets of lamp irons and speed restriction signs. These are etched brass. I am puzzled because you are remembering magnetic steel. I am not sure that steel is so readily etched? Regards Ray Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Smiths but thank you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need steel ones because with a magnet in the smokebox they are easy to change over. Thanks anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
