I had posted a couple of months ago about rebuilding some Lucite Canister lights that a friend gave me. I have made good progress but have hit the wall with the two-pole booted toggle switches. These were made for Ikelite (and I talked to them today and they haven't used these for years even though the lady I talked to has one of these that still works.
These switches are simple two-pole toggles with a rubber boot that covers the toggle and contains a brass nut that seals against the plexiglas. A simple brass nut covered in rubber seals from inside and is on the base of the threaded barrel that contains the toggle. I am going to try to attach a couple of pictures, but I understand that the server may not be able to handle that right now.
If anyone knows a source for something like this or can suggest a work-around I would really appreciate hearing from you. If the pics can't be sent I can send them to a private email. I will edit them for web transmission with Photoshop as jpegs so they won't be huge files.
Many thanks in advance.
