I have a small cast part I acquired a long time ago. I would like to get more of them made but can not find my records of who I bought it from. Is someone willing to share a picture of the part on the Forum for me if I send it to you? Thanks.

You have to put the pic on a hosting site.Then in your post here,it should have either, a link to the host site,or the image itself will appear here,when you activate the img bit underneath the pic when on the host site.Try it.I know how to do it,but only ever use free hosting sites.

That's o.k.,it took me loads of tries,until I actually managed it!I'm still not entirely sure.It was 2008-2009,It's all 'magic' to me.LOL.It is probably easier now.

just google free picture hosting sites. there are a ton of them... they all work the same more or less... you upload a pic you get a link. then go back here and click on the image icon at the top. it will make a bracket where you can insert the link from the hosting site.

Thanks very much Ken. Yes, I think that was what I bought them for a long time ago. Does anyone know who was making these? I would like to buy more.

Thanks for the tip Steve. I looked at the part, it is nice but I was hoping to find the style posted here. My hunt continues...
